XSTBrel

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSTBrel(name='tbrel')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSMultiplicativeModel

The XSPEC TBrel model: ISM grain absorption.

The model is described at [1].

nH

The equivalent hydrogen column (in units of 10^22 atoms/cm^2).

He, C, N, O, Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, S, Cl, Ar, Ca, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni

The abundance of the element in solar units.

H2
The equivalent molecular hydrogen column (in units of
10^22 atoms/cm^2).
rho

The grain density, in g/cm^3.

amin

The minimum grain size, in micro-meters.

amax

The maximum grain size, in micro-meters.

PL

The power-law index of grain sizes.

H_dep, He_dep, C_dep, N_dep, O_dep, Ne_dep, Na_dep, Mg_dep, Al_dep,
Si_dep, S_dep, Cl_dep, Ar_dep, Ca_dep, Cr_dep, Fe_dep, Co_dep, Ni_dep

The grain depletion fraction of the element.

redshift

The redshift of the absorber.

calc(pars, xlo, *args, **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.
