XSbvvtapec

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSbvvtapec(name='bvvtapec')

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC bvvtapec model: velocity broadened APEC emission spectrum with separate continuum and line temperatures.

The model is described at [1]. The set_xsxset and get_xsxset functions are used to set and query the XSPEC XSET “APECROOT” parameter.

kT

Continuum temperature, in keV.

kTi

Line temperature, 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.
