A Monte Carlo Code for Relativistic Radiation Transport Around Kerr Black Holes. (arXiv:1302.3214v1 [astro-ph.HE]):
We present a new code for radiation transport around Kerr black holes,
including arbitrary emission and absorption terms, as well as electron
scattering and polarization. The code is particularly useful for analyzing
accretion flows made up of optically thick disks and optically thin coronae. We
give a detailed description of the methods employed in the code, and also
present results from a number of numerical tests to assess its accuracy and
convergence.
