About the Radiative Transfer (RT) and inversion codes used in the characterization of planetary atmospheres — Rengel Miriam1 and •Adamczewski Jakob1,2 — 1Max-Planck-Institut für Sonnensystemforschung — 2Georg-August-Universität Göttingen
This contribution represents a tour on Radiative Transfer (RT) and inversion codes used in the planetary and exoplanetary communities from the perspective of a user. Such codes predict and interpret spectra of planetary atmospheres (hydrostatic equilibrium atmospheres and expanding comas) and infer atmospheric properties like temperature and abundance profiles (forward modelling and inversion algorithm, respectively). The retrieved atmospheric properties can offer crucial information into the atmospheric physico-chemical processes of planets and their formation mechanisms.
Here we present a mini overview of some existing forward and inversion codes used in the planetary science and some examples of applications. Space and ground-based telescope facilities used in the field (feasibility studies, observational planning, etc.) depend on the quality and extent of these codes.
