Debris disk radiative transfer simulation tool (DDS)
Description
Abstract A WWW interface for the simulation of spectral energy distributions of optically thin dust configurations with an embedded radiative source is presented. The density distribution, radiative source, and dust parameters can be selected either from an internal database or defined by the user. This tool is optimized for studying circumstellar debris disks where large grains ( a grain ≫ 1 μ m ) are expected to determine the far-infrared through millimeter dust reemission spectral energy distributi... Title of program: Debris Disk Radiative Transfer Simulator (DDS) Catalogue Id: ADVV_v1_0 Nature of problem Simulation of scattered light and thermal reemission in arbitrary optically dust distributions with spherical, homogeneous grains where the dust parameters (optical properties, sublimation temperature, grain size) and SED of the illuminating/ heating radiative source can be arbitrarily defined (example application: Wolf and Hillenbrand 2003). The program is optimized for studying circumstellar debris disks where large grains (i.e., with large size parameters) are expected to determine the far-in ...
