XScflow

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XScflow(name='cflow')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel

The XSPEC cflow model: cooling flow.

The model is described at [1]. The results of this model depend on the cosmology settings set with set_xscosmo.

slope

The power-law index of the emissivity function.

lowT

The minimum temperature, in keV.

highT

The maxmimum temperature, in keV.

Abundanc

The abundance relative to Solar, as set by set_xsabund.

redshift

The redshift of the plasma.

norm

The mass accretion rate (solar mass per year).

Methods Documentation

apply(outer, *otherargs, **otherkwargs)
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.

regrid(*arrays)
reset()
set_center(*args, **kwargs)
startup()

Called before a model may be evaluated multiple times.
