src.Atomic.LTELib.Ufunc(elm, T)[source]

partition function of neutral hydrogen

Parameters
  • elm (element & ionization stage as ca_i, fe_ii, etc.) –

  • T (temperature (k)) –

Notes

Wanring : this polynomial fitting formula(table) is only avaible for low temperature (\(<10000 K\))

from 1, 2. .. math:: log(u) = c_0 + c_1 cdot log(theta) + c_2 cdot log(theta)^2 + c_3 cdot log(theta)^3 + c_4 cdot log(theta)^4 .. math:: log = log_{10} .. math:: theta = 5040 / T
