Description
The DIPLODOCUS (Distribution-In-PLateaux methODOlogy for the Computation of transport eqUationS) framework, and its associated code Diplodocus.jl, for anisotropic particle transport and emission modelling of astrophysical sources (focused on jets), are now publicly available.
In this contribution, we will update the community on the project’s status, development and direction, and provide some insightful results. This will include single and multi-zone code comparisons for leptonic blazar emissions and a study into the effects that structured, helical, magnetic field within a blazar jet may affect its observed spectrum and hence our parameterisation of their in-situ properties.
