v12.10.1 Oct 2018

  • New Models:

    zbknpower redshifted broken power law
    zlogpar redshifted modified power law
    agnsed model for the SED of an AGN
    qsosed simplified version of agnsed
    cph cooling+heating model for cool core clusters
    vcph cph with variable abundances
    relline Relativistically broadened emission line
    rellinelp relline with lamp-post geometry
    rellinelpext relline with extended lamp-post geometry
    relconv Convolve with relline profile
    relconvlp Convolve with rellinelp profile
    relconvlpext Convolve with rellinelpext profile

  • Updated Models:
    • Added an xset LINECRITLEVEL option for the critical level for gaussian/lorentzian/voigt lines. If set this overrides the coded values.
    • Modified diskline, rdblur, kdblur, kdblur2, laor, laor2, kerrconv, kerrdisk for high resolution spectroscopy.
    • Added C/Fortran tabint wrapper for C++ tableInterpolate function.

  • The statistic cstatbN where N is an integer calculates the C-statistic in the presence of background with both source and background spectra binned so that there are at least N counts in each background bin.
