PICASO

(Planetary Intensity Code for Atmospheric Scattering Observations)
(rt code specifically for exoplanet transmission spectroscopy)

PICASO (for Planetary Intensity Code for Atmospheric Scattering Observations) is radiative transfer code specifically for the study of extra-solar planets and brown dwarfs, for analyzing transmission spectroscopy data as well as reflection/scattering from such atmospheres. It also includes the associated one dimensional climate modeling. It is written in Python.
