XSnsa

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSnsa(name='nsa')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC nsa model: neutron star atmosphere.

The model is described at [1].

LogT_eff

The log of Teff, the unredshifted effective temperature.

M_ns

The neutron star gravitational mass, in units of the solar mass.

R_ns

The neutron star radius, in km.

MagField

The neutron star magnetic field strength, in Gauss. It must be fixed at one of 0, 1e12, or 1e13 G.

norm

The normalization is 1/D^2, where D is the distance to the neutron star in pc.
