More of DUSTY (MoD)
An extension of the publically available DUSTY dust radiative transfer code (Ivezić et al. 1999).
DUSTY is used as a subroutine inside a minimization code.
It allows to fit photometry, spectra, intensity profiles and visibility data, and
determine the best fitting luminosity, optical depth, dust temperature at the inner radius, and
slope of the density distribution.
The code is described in Groenewegen, M.A.T. 2012, A&A 543, A36
"An extension of the DUSTY radiative transfer code and an application to OH 26.5 and TT Cygni"
The latest (January 2023) External release 8 is available in this tar file

LiTE (Light-Time Travel Effect)
A code to calculate the period change and/or binary orbital parameters based on the light-time travel-effect.
Quite some manual intervention is needed, and many things can go wrong!
What the code can do is illustrated in Groenewegen, M.A.T., Jurkovic, M.I. 2017, A&A 603, A70.
It follows the ideas originally outlined in Hajdu, Catelan, Jurcsik, et al. 2015, MNRAS 449, L113.
If you are interested contact me, and we can discuss if it can be applied to your problem.
