Monte Carlo Radiative Transfer Simulations
The simulations were performed in a 1.0^3 box, speed of light = 1.0. The opacity 32^3 data was taken from Greg Bryan. Linear interpolation technique was used to get the opacity at any point in the box. The radiation field of a point source in the box was simulated using Monte Carlo Method. The time step was dt=0.005. The Point source was turned on at the bottom of the box at the time T0=0. The plates were exposed at the time tb=5.00, when the field approached the equilibrium, and were accumulating photons up to the time T1. The source was emitting 2,000,000 photons per unit time.
