PowLaw1D

class sherpa.models.basic.PowLaw1D(name='powlaw1d')[source]

Bases: sherpa.models.model.ArithmeticModel

One-dimensional power-law function.

It is assumed that the independent axis is positive at all points.

gamma

The photon index of the power law.

ref

As the reference point is degenerate with the amplitude, the alwaysfrozen attribute of the reference point is set so that it can not be varied during a fit.

ampl

The amplitude of the model.

Notes

The functional form of the model for points is:

f(x) = ampl * (x / ref)^(-gamma)

and for an integrated grid it is the integral of this over the bin.
