distroi.model.rt_comp.mcfost module

A module to define an interface with the MCFOST RT code.

Defines classes for interfacing with different models produced with the MCFOST RT code (Pinte et al. 2009: https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2009A%26A…498..967P/abstract). Requires the user to have installed MCFOST on the machine running DISTROI, and have it available in the command line interface (via e.g. ‘$ mcfost <parameter_file>’).

Notes:

All RT model class implementations must inherit from the abstract class defined in the ‘rt_model’ module.
