Detailed Description

A FileSED object represents a spectral energy distribution that is loaded from an input file. The floating point numbers in the first two columns of the text file specify respectively the wavelength and the corresponding specific luminosity per unit of wavelength. Any additional columns in the file are ignored. The wavelengths must be listed in increasing or decreasing order. The luminosity outside the range indicated by the first and the last wavelength in the file is considered to be zero.

The wavelengths are by default given in micron (the units can be overridden by column header info in the file). The specific luminosity values are by default given in per-wavelength units. Again, this can be overridden by column header info in the file to use per-frequency or neutral units. Other than this, the scaling of the values is arbitrary because the SED will be normalized after being loaded. However, the input procedure still insists on knowing the precise units.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ FileSED()

FileSED::FileSED ( )
inlineprotected

Default constructor for concrete Item subclass FileSED: "a spectral energy distribution loaded from a text file".

Member Function Documentation

◆ filename()

string FileSED::filename ( ) const
inline

This function returns the value of the discoverable string property filename: "the name of the file with the spectral energy distribution".

◆ getWavelengthsAndLuminosities()

void FileSED::getWavelengthsAndLuminosities ( Array & lambdav,
Array & pv ) const
overrideprotectedvirtual

This function loads the input file into the specified arrays.

Implements TabulatedSED.
