XSrnei

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSrnei(name='rnei')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC rnei model: non-equilibrium recombining collisional plasma.

The model is described at [1]. The set_xsxset and get_xsxset functions are used to set and query the XSPEC XSET parameters, in particular the keyword “NEIVERS”.

kT

The temperature of the plasma, in keV.

kT_init

The initial temperature of the plasma, in keV.

Abundanc

The metal abundance of the plasma, as defined by the set_xsabund function.

Tau

The ionization timescale in units of s/cm^3.

redshift

The redshift of the plasma.

norm

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