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.

absori: ionized absorber

An ionized absorber based on that of Done et al. (1992, ApJ 395, 275) and developed by Magdziarz & Zdziarski (1995, MNRAS 273, 837). See also Zdziarski et al. (1995, ApJ 438, L63). Photoionization rates are from Reilman & Manson (1979, ApJS 40, 815), who employ the Hartree-Slater approximation (accurate to about 5%), and recombination rates are from Shull & van Steenberg (1982, ApJS 48, 95). The cross sections are extrapolated with $E^{-3}$ above 5 keV. The abundances are set up by the command abund. Send questions or comments to aaz@camk.edu.pl
