yt.analysis_modules.spectral_integrator.spectral_frequency_integrator.EmissivityIntegrator¶

class yt.analysis_modules.spectral_integrator.spectral_frequency_integrator.EmissivityIntegrator(filename=None)[source]¶

Class for making X-ray emissivity fields with hdf5 data tables from Cloudy.

Initialize an EmissivityIntegrator object.

Parameters:

Parameters:	filename: string, default None : Path to data file containing emissivity values. If None, a file called “cloudy_emissivity.h5” is used, for photoionized plasmas. A second option, for collisionally ionized plasmas, is in the file “apec_emissivity.h5”, available at http://yt-project.org/data. These files contain emissivity tables for primordial elements and for metals at solar metallicity for the energy range 0.1 to 100 keV. Default: None.
