PulseProfileSimulation

May 15, 2025 ยท View on GitHub

Fortran code for a relativistic pulse profile simulation from a rotating neutron star with one or two hot spots on its surface. The core of this code is based on the classic approach described by Pechenick, Ftaclas, & Cohen (1983, ApJ, 274, 846), which models light bending and relativistic beaming in Schwarzschild geometry.

#compile #bash gfortran -o pulse pulse.f common.f

#run ./pulse
