The NASA/GSFC network is currently experiencing intermittent issues that affect our services. We are working on it and apologize for the inconvenience.
The offline tool hark (also on github) can be used to find and download data from the cloud.

fekblor, zfekblor, bfekblor, zbfekblor: Fe K$\beta $ line at high resolution

A four Lorentzian approximation to the line profile of Fe K$\beta $ from neutral material. The energies, widths, and relative amplitudes for the Lorentzians are taken from Holzer et al (1997) and are:

Energy (eV) Width (eV) Amplitude  
7046.90 14.17 0.301  
7057.21 3.12 0.279  
7058.36 1.97 0.241  
7054.75 6.38 0.179  

The only parameter for fekblor is the normalization (the total photons/cm$^2$/s in the line) while zfekblor has an additional parameter for the redshift.

bfekblor velocity-broadens the fekblor model (thus making it the sum of 4 Voigt profiles) with the parameter being the velocity $\sigma$ in km/s. zbfekblor adds an additional parameter for the redshift.
