QSOSED_L2500#

Name#

QSOSED_L2500

Purpose#

Generates the qsosed \(L_{2500}\) (monochromatic luminosity at 2500 Angstroms) corresponding to given values of \(M\) and \(\log(\dot{M})\) using the models from Kubota & Done (2018).

Calling Sequence#

L2500 = qsosed_L2500(xray_models, agn_mass, agn_logmdot [, /error_check])

Inputs#

xray_modelsstructure

A structure containing the spectra, counts, and X-ray model parameters. (See xrb_xagn_models.pro for details and contents.)

agn_massint, float, or double array(Nmodels)

Supermassive black hole mass \([M_\odot]\).

agn_logmdotint, float, or double array(Nmodels)

Log10 of SMBH accretion rate, normalized by the Eddington rate.

Optional Input#

error_checkflag

If set, all inputs are checked for errors. Otherwise, all inputs are assumed to be of correct format.

Output#

L2500double array(Nmodels)

The interpolated rest-frame 2500 Angstrom monochromatic luminosity of shifted to the observed frame \([L_\odot\ {\rm Hz}^{-1}]\).
