RESUMO
NuRadioMC is a framework for the simulation of ultra-high-energy neutrino detectors that measure the radio signal emitted in neutrino-induced particle cascades used in different radio neutrino experiments. We present an extension to the analytic raytracing method for multilayered exponential refractive index models, where the full refractive index profile is described by a set of different single-exponential layers, supporting realistic medium descriptions at various experiment sites while maintaining computational efficiency. This approach also enables a realistic exponential refractive index description of the atmosphere and allows us to model signal propagation over non-smooth changes in the refractive index. This report outlines the fundamentals of the multilayered analytic raytracing method and shows some applied examples.
