XScemekl

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XScemekl(name='cemekl')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC cemekl model: plasma emission, multi-temperature using mekal.

The model is described at [1].

alpha

The power-law index of the emissivity function.

Tmax

The maxmimum temperature, in keV.

nH

H density, in cm^-3.

abundanc

The abundance relative to Solar, as set by set_xsabund.

redshift

The redshift of the plasma.

switch

If 0, the mekal code is run to evaluate the model; if 1 then interpolation of the mekal data is used; if 2 then interpolation of APEC data is used. See [1] for more details. This parameter can not be thawed.

norm

The normalization of the model.
