Exact vs. Gauss-Seidel non-LTE radiation transfer solutions

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Although published in 1995, the Gauss-Seidel method for solving the non-LTE radiative transfer problem has deserved too little attention in the astrophysical community yet. Further tests of the performances and of the accuracy of the numerical scheme are provided.
