Scientific paper

In order to better understand the innermost regions of cometary comae, such as those observed with high spatial resolution in the Deep Impact and EPOXI missions, we have built
a radiative transfer model for optically thick molecular emission spectra.
We use Coupled Escape Probability, a new accurate method of radiative transfer, which we have adapted to a non-symmetric spherical situation.
Our model can also be of use in other applications and/or geometries, such as, for example, in protoplanetary disks.
Four species/molecules have been modeled thus far: CO, CO2, H2O and SiO.
The first three are particularly relevant for DI and other cometary spectra, and SiO is for use in PP disk studies.
