XSbvvapec

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSbvvapec(name='bvvapec')

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

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

The model is described at [1], with XSbapec describing how it is implemented in Sherpa.

kT

The temperature of the plasma, in keV.

H, He, Li, Be, B, C, N, O, F, Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Cl, Ar,

K, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn

The abundance of the element in solar units.

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.
