CCM

class sherpa.astro.optical.CCM(name='ccm')

Bases: sherpa.models.model.ArithmeticModel

Galactic extinction: the Cardelli, Clayton, and Mathis model.

The interstellar extinction is calculated using the formula from [1]. This model is intended to be used to modify another model (e.g. by multiplying the two together). It is for use when the independent axis is in Angstrom.

Notes

When evaluated on a binned grid, the lower-edges of the bins are used for the calculation.

apply(outer, *otherargs, **otherkwargs)

calc(p, x, xhi=None, **kwargs)

get_center()

guess(dep, *args, **kwargs)

Set an initial guess for the parameter values.

Attempt to set the parameter values, and ranges, for the model to match the data values. This is intended as a rough guess, so it is expected that the model is only evaluated a small number of times, if at all.
