DOI

Welcome to the Magritte repository! Magritte is a open-source software library for simulating radiation transport, developed at University College London (UCL, UK) and KU Leuven (Belgium).

Magritte is currently mainly used for post-processing hydrodynamical simulations of astrophysical models by creating synthetic observations, but the techniques could in principle also be applied more general (e.g. plasma and nuclear physics).

It can either be used as a Python package or as a C++ library. Magritte uses a deterministic ray-tracer with a formal solver that currently focusses on line radiative transfer (see De Ceuster et al. 2019 for more details). The plot below shows synthetic observations made with Magritte at three different inclinations for a hydro simulation of the stellar wind around an asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star as it is perturbed by a companion.

movie

The hydro model was created by Jan Bolte using MPI-AMRVAC. See the examples in the documentation to learn how these synthetic observations were created with Magritte.

Documentation

Please find our online documentation here. In particular, see our quickstart documentation for a quick intro.

Papers about Magritte

The following list of papers might provide further insights in the inner workings of Magritte: * Magritte, a modern software library for spectral line radiative transfer (arXiv, Astron. Comput.) * Magritte II: Adaptive ray-tracing, mesh construction and reduction (arXiv, MNRAS); * Magritte I: Non-LTE atomic and molecular line modelling (arXiv, MNRAS); * 3D Line Radiative Transfer & Synthetic Observations with Magritte (JOSS).

Please note that some features presented in these papers might have been changed and improved upon in later papers.
