We simulate convection near the solar surface, where the continuum optical depth is of order unity. Hence, to determine the radiative heating and cooling in the energy conservation equation, we must solve the radiative transfer equation…
We present a general method to solve radiative transfer problems including scattering in the continuum as well as in lines in 3D configurations with periodic boundary conditions. he scattering problem for line transfer is solved via means…
We extend our framework for 3D radiative transfer calculations with a non-local operator splitting methods along (full) characteristics to spherical and cylindrical coordinate systems. These coordinate systems are better suited to a number…
This paper presents a new technique for developing reduced-order models (ROMs) for nonlinear radiative transfer problems in high-energy density physics. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) of photon intensities is applied to obtain…
Accurate angular quadratures are crucial for the numerical solution of three-dimensional (3D) radiative transfer problems, especially when the spectral line polarisation produced by the scattering of anisotropic radiation is included. There…
The interpretation of the intensity and polarization of the spectral line radiation produced in the atmosphere of the Sun and of other stars requires solving a radiative transfer problem that can be very complex, especially when the main…
Measurable linear scattering polarization signals have been predicted and detected at the solar disk center in the core of chromospheric lines. These forward-scattering polarization signals, which are of high interest for magnetic field…
The Ba II D2 line at 4554 A is a good example, where the F-state interference effects due to the odd isotopes produce polarization profiles, which are very different from those of the even isotopes that do not exhibit F-state interference.…
The set of benchmark solutions used in the thermal radiative transfer community suffer some coverage gaps, in particular nonlinear, non-equilibrium problems. Also, there are no non-equilibrium, optically thick benchmarks. These shortcomings…
We present a general formalism for computing self-consistent, numerical solutions to the time-dependent radiative transfer equation in low velocity, multi-level ions undergoing radiative interactions. Recent studies of time-dependent…
The numerical solution of time-dependent radiative transfer problems is challenging, both, due to the high dimension as well as the anisotropic structure of the underlying integro-partial differential equation. In this paper we propose a…
Context. Magnetic fields are important to the dynamics of many astrophysical processes and can typically be studied through polarization observations. Polarimetric interferometry capabilities of modern (sub)millimeter telescope facilities…
Hard X-ray spectra in solar flares provide knowledge of the electron spectrum that results from acceleration and propagation in the solar atmosphere. However, the inference of the electron spectra from solar X-ray spectra is an ill-posed…
A class of models of heat transfer processes in a multilayer domain is considered. The governing equation is a nonlinear heat-transfer equation with different temperature-dependent densities and thermal coefficients in each layer.…
We consider the vector emissivity of the polarized radiation transfer in a $\Lambda$-type atomic transition, which we recently proposed in order to account for both CRD and PRD contributions to the scattered radiation. This expression can…
Although the h and k lines of MgII are expected to be of great interest for probing the upper solar chromosphere, relatively little is known about their polarization properties which encode the information on the magnetic field. Here we…
Hanle scattering is an important diagnostic tool to study weak solar magnetic fields. Partial frequency redistribution (PRD) is necessary to interpret the linear polarization observed in strong resonance lines. Usually angle-averaged PRD…
When integrating the radiative transfer equation for polarized light, the necessity of high-order numerical methods is well known. In fact, well-performing high-order formal solvers enable higher accuracy and the use of coarser spatial…
Rosseland equation is one of the most popular models of the conduction-radiation coupled heat transfer in the thermal protection system. The well-posedness, the corresponding mathematical theory and the Multi-scale analysis method for the…
Context: The solution of the nonlocal thermodynamical equilibrium (non-LTE) radiative transfer equation usually relies on stationary iterative methods, which may falsely converge in some cases. Furthermore, these methods are often unable to…
