Raymond-Smith (He and metal abundances)

 

This spectral model calls table exsas_cal:thbrsm.tbl from the EXSAS calibration area (appendix F).   This table has a more complicated structure and cannot be handled easily by MIDAS commands. It can be read properly only by a FORTRAN subroutine, which is buried in the directory containing the code of this package.  

Whereas the first column contains the energy grid of the continuum and line energies (in eV), the next 70 columns hold the corresponding continuum and line emissions in dependence of the plasma temperature (see Table 6.5).   The first set of rows corresponds to hydrogen, the second to helium, and the third to the metals.       Different sets are separated by a row of zeros.
