Classes

Integrator
Integrator engine.

SourceSpectrum
Base class for the Source Spectrum object.

CompositeSourceSpectrum
Composite Source Spectrum object, handles addition, multiplication and keeping track of the wavelength set.

TabularSourceSpectrum
Class for a source spectrum that is read in from a table.

NewTabularSpectrum
Replacement class

FileSourceSpectrum
Class for a source spectrum that is read in from a table.

AnalyticSpectrum
Base class for analytic functions.

GaussianSource

UnitSpectrum

Powerlaw

BlackBody

SpectralElement
Base class for a Spectral Element (e.g.

CompositeSpectralElement
CompositeSpectralElement Class, which knows how to calculate its throughput by delegating the calculating the calculating to its components.

UniformTransmission
Uniform Transmission Spectral Element.

TabularSpectralElement
The TabularSpectralElement class handles spectral elements that are stored in tables.

InterpolatedSpectralElement
The InterpolatedSpectralElement class handles spectral elements that are interpolated from columns stored in FITS tables

ThermalSpectralElement
The ThermalSpectralElement class handles spectral elements that have associated thermal properties read from a FITS table.
