The HEASARC and NuSTAR teams are greatly saddened by the sudden passing of Katja Pottschmidt. Most recently Katja was the lead scientist for the NuSTAR Guest Observer Facility (GOF), a role she had supported for many years. During her science career she worked on many other high energy astrophysics missions and played an integral role in advancing our knowledge of the universe. She was a wonderful colleague and friend and will be keenly missed by all who knew her.

zashift: redshift an additive model
This convolution model redshifts an additive model. It takes the calculated model and shifts energies by 1/(1+z) then applies an additional 1/(1+z) factor to the model values.
The energies command must be to used to extend the maximum energy over which the model is being calculated to (1+z) times the maximum energy in the response.
The parameter is:
| par1 | redshift |
An example model use is:
XSPEC>model phabs*zashift*(pow+ga)which redshifts the power-law and gaussian then multiplies by local absorption.
