XSbapec

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSbapec(name='bapec')

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC bapec model: velocity broadened APEC thermal plasma model.

The model is described at [1]. The set_xsabund and get_xsabund functions change and return the current settings for the relative abundances of the metals. The set_xsxset and get_xsxset functions are used to set and query the XSPEC XSET parameters, in particular the keywords “APECROOT” and “APEC_TRACE_ABUND”.

kT

The temperature of the plasma, in keV.

Abundanc

The metal abundance of the plasma, as defined by the set_xsabund function and the “APEC_TRACE_ABUND” xset keyword.

Redshift

The redshift of the plasma.

Velocity

The gaussian sigma of the velocity broadening, in km/s.

norm

The normalization of the model: see [1] for an explanation of the units.
