Walkthrough Examples and Threads

XSTAR

• Broad emission line cloud and plot of simulated spectrum
• Marginally Compton thick slab, reflection and transmission
• Traditional H II region
• Coronal plasma
• Spectrum with line labels
• Charge state distribution as function of \(\log\xi\)
• \(T\) - \(\log\xi\) curves
• Density profiles (constant vs powerlaw)

XSTAR2XSPEC

• Calculate a simple table model (grid18)
• Fit a table model to a spectrum in XSPEC

WARMABS

• Update population files
  • 1. Tabulate the SED in a text file
  • 2. Run xstar with this incident SED
  • 3. Link atomic database and run warmabs
• Fit a warmabs model to a spectrum in XPEC
