XSzvphabs

class sherpa.astro.xspec.XSzvphabs(name='zvphabs')[source]

Bases: sherpa.astro.xspec.XSMultiplicativeModel

The XSPEC vphabs model: photoelectric absorption.

The model is described at [1].

nH

The equivalent hydrogen column (in units of 10^22 atoms/cm^2).

He, C, N, O, Ne, Na, Mg, Al, Si, S, Cl, Ar, Ca, Cr, Fe, Co, Ni

The abundance of the element in solar units.

redshift

The redshift of the absorber.

Notes

The set_xsxsect function changes the cross sections used by this model. The set_xsabund function changes the relative abundances of the elements.

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.
