R-JET: A Postprocessing Code for Radiative Transport in Relativistic Jets

We describe a postprocessing radiative transport code for computing the spectra, the core shift, and the surface-brightness distribution of special relativistic jets with arbitrary optical thickness. The jet consists of an electron–positron pair plasma and an electron–proton normal plasma. Electrons...
