MOCASSIN: 3D photoionisation and dust radiative transfer modelling of PNe
Barbara Ercolano, M. J. Barlow, P. J. Storey, X. -W. Liu
Abstract
We present the first 3D Monte Carlo photoionisation code to include a fully self-consistent treatment of dust radiative transfer (RT) within the photoionised region. This is the latest development of the recently published pure photoionisation code MOCASSIN (Ercolano et al., 2003a) and it is currently undergoing several benchmarking tests. The preliminary results of these tests are presented in these conference proceedings. The new code provides the ideal tool for the analysis of dusty ionised regions showing asymmetries and/or density and chemical inhomogeneities
