XSeqpair
(name='eqpair')[source] [edit on github]¶ Bases:
sherpa.astro.xspec.XSAdditiveModel
The XSPEC eqpair model: Paolo Coppi’s hybrid (thermal/non-thermal) hot plasma emission models.
The model is described at 1.
Note
Deprecated in Sherpa 4.10.0
The
l_hl_s
,l_ntl_h
, andAbHe
parameters have been renamed tol_hovl_s
,l_ntol_h
, andAb_met
respectively to match the XSPEC definition. The namesl_hl_s
,l_ntl_h
, andAbHe
can still be used to access the parameters, but they will be removed in a future release.-
l_hovl_s
¶ The ratio of the hard to soft compactness, l_h / l_s.
-
l_bb
¶ The soft photon compactness.
-
kT_bb
¶ The temperature of the blackbody if greater than 0. When less than zero then the absolute value is used as the T_max parameter of the
XSdispkpn
model. The units are in eV.
-
l_ntol_h
¶ The fraction of power supplied to energetic particles which goes into accelerating non-thermal particles, l_nt / l_h.
-
tau_p
¶ The Thomson scattering depth.
-
radius
¶ The size of the scattering region in cm.
-
g_min
¶ The minimum Lorentz factor of the pairs.
-
g_max
¶ The maximum Lorentz factor of the pairs.
-
G_inj
¶ If less than zero then the non-thermal spectrum is assumed mono-energetic at g_max, otherwise a power law is used from g_min to g_max.
-
pairinj
¶ If zero then accelerated particles are electrons from thermal pool. If one then accelerated particles are electrons and positrons.
-
cosIncl
¶ The cosine of the inclination angle of the reflecting material to the line of sight.
-
Refl
¶ The fraction of the scattering region’s emission intercepted by reflecting material.
-
Fe_abund
¶ The iron abundance with respect to solar.
-
Ab_met
¶ The abundance of the other metals with respect to solar.
-
T_disk
¶ The temperature of the reflecting disk, in K.
-
xi
¶ The ionization parameter of the reflector.
-
Beta
¶ The power-law index with radius of disk reflection emissivity.
-
Rin
¶ The inner radius of the reflecting material, in units of GM/c^2.
-
Rout
¶ The outer radius of the reflecting material, in units of GM/c^2.
-
redshift
¶ The redshift of the source.
Notes
The precision of the numerical integration can be changed by using the
set_xsxset
function to set the value of the EQPAIR_PRECISION keyword, which defines the fractional precision. The default is 0.01 (1%).References

(outer, *otherargs, **otherkwargs) [edit on github]¶
-
calc
(pars, xlo, *args, **kwargs) [edit on github]¶ Evaluate the model on a grid.
- Parameters
p (sequence of numbers) – The parameter values to use. The order matches the
pars
field.*args – The model grid. The values can be scalar or arrays, and the number depends on the dimensionality of the model and whether it is being evaluated over an integrated grid or at a point (or points).
-
get_center
() [edit on github]¶
-
guess
(dep, *args, **kwargs) [edit on github]¶ 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
(*args, **kwargs) [edit on github]¶ The class RegriddableModel1D allows the user to evaluate in the requested space then interpolate onto the data space. An optional argument ‘interp’ enables the user to change the interpolation method.
Examples
>>> import numpy as np >>> from sherpa.models.basic import Box1D >>> mybox = Box1D() >>> request_space = np.arange(1, 10, 0.1) >>> regrid_model = mybox.regrid(request_space, interp=linear_interp)
-
reset
() [edit on github]¶ Reset the parameter values.
-
set_center
(*args, **kwargs) [edit on github]¶
-
startup
(cache=False) [edit on github]¶ Called before a model may be evaluated multiple times.
- Parameters
cache (bool, optional) – Should a cache be used when evaluating the models.
