摘要:We present a three dimensional radiative transfer model (the High Energy Astrophysics Radiative
Transfer (HEART) code) to explain the broadband spectra from various high energy astrophysical
objects. Our code can recreate many emitting region geometries, including inhomogeneous
plasma distributions, as well as take into account all the important radiative transfer mechanisms
such as Compton scattering, synchrotron radiation, bremsstrahlung radiation and Coulomb scattering.
The kinetic equation is used to accurately model evolving electron/positron distributions.
With time-dependent modelling of these phenomena we attempt to further our understanding of
the underlying mechanisms giving rise to the broadband spectra.
