xscevmkl

Synopsis

Multi-temperature vmeka. XSpec model.

Description

A multi-temperature plasma emission model built from the mekal code. Emission measures follow a power law in temperature (i.e. emission measure from temperature T is proportional to (T/Tmax)^alpha). The abundances are relative to the Solar abundances set by the set_xsabund command. The switch parameter determines whether the mekal code will be run to calculate the model spectrum for each temperature, or whether the model spectrum will be interpolated from a pre-calculated table; the former is slower but more accurate. The reference for this model is Singh et al. (1996, ApJ, 456, 766).

This is an additive model component.
