Abstract

A public, CUDA/C-based relativistic Monte Carlo radiative transfer code accelerated via GPUs. Designed for high-performance spectral modeling of accreting black holes, GPUmonty offloads photon tracking and scattering to achieve a considerable speedup over traditional CPU-based implementations like grmonty.
