The RAST software includes the following key features:
- molecular line frequencies and strengths from quantum spectroscopic models
- nonequilibrium band parameters from line strength/spacing statistics
- radiation-coupled internal energy kinetics for nonequilibrium state distributions
- coupled gas/particle emission, absorption, scattering with exact curve-of-growth
- general applications: millimeter-ultraviolet, plume-atmosphere, ground-space
