title: SimLine
abstract: >
  SimLine is a FORTRAN code for computing molecular transition line profiles
  in spherically symmetric clouds with arbitrary density, temperature and
  velocity structure. Turbulence and clumping are treated in a local
  statistical approximation with a radial dependence of the correlation
  parameters. The code solves the radiative transfer and level population
  equations self-consistently using an accelerated lambda iteration and
  computes emergent line profiles convolved with a Gaussian telescope beam.
