Prospects for Ray-tracing Light Intensity and Polarization in Models of Accreting Compact Objects Using a GPU
The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) has recently released high-resolution images of accretion flows onto two supermassive black holes. Our physical understanding of these images depends on the accuracy and precision of numerical models of plasma and radiation around compact objects. The goal of this w...
