XSbmc

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSbmc(name='bmc')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC bmc model: Comptonization by relativistic matter.

The model is described at [1].

Note

Deprecated in Sherpa 4.10.0

The logA parameter has been renamed log_A to match the XSPEC definition. The name logA can still be used to access the parameter, but this name will be removed in a future release.

kT

The temperature of the thermal photon source in keV.

alpha

The energy spectral index.

log_A

The log of the A parameter: see [1] for more details.

norm

The normalization of the model: see [1] for an explanation of the units.
