/Bjet_MCMC

Bjet_MCMC is a tool to to automatically model multiwavelength spectral energy distributions of blazars, considering one-zone synchrotron-self-Compton (SSC) model with or without the addition of external inverse-Compton process from the thermal emission of the nucleus. It also contains manual fitting functionalities for multi-zone SSC modeling.

Bjet_MCMC

Bjet_MCMC is a tool to automatically model multiwavelength spectral energy distributions of blazars, considering one-zone synchrotron-self-Compton (SSC) model with or without the addition of external inverse-Compton process from the thermal emission of the nucleus. It also contains manual fitting functionalities for multi-zone SSC modeling. This tool is built as an MCMC python wrapper around the C++ code Bjet.
