Description
We present very fast radiative transfer tools of interest for the
interpretation of future spectroscopic observations taken with the GTC
and its post-focus instrumentation. Our radiative transfer codes are
based on the iterative methods introduced by Trujillo Bueno &
Fabiani Bendicho (1995). Taking into consideration spherical geometry
and macroscopic velocity fields, we present results from the application
of these fast radiative transfer methods. We show why it is of interest
to develop a medium-high resolution spectrograph in order to be able to
resolve the rotational structure of the molecular bands. We show some
spectropolarimetric observations made with the Tenerife Infrared
Polarimeter (TIP), developed at the IAC and the theoretical modeling
done with the theoretical tools we have developed.
