KY Relativistic Accretion Disk models
A set of models from Dovciak et al. (2004) for accretion disk spectra in the strong gravity regime. The models are
| kyrline | Relativistic line from accretion disc around Kerr black hole, axisymmetric version. |
| kyr1line | Relativistic line from accretion disc around Kerr black hole, non-axisymmetric version. |
| kyr2line | Two relativistic lines from accretion disc around Kerr black hole. |
| kyf1ll | fluorescent lamp-post line emission from accretion disc around Kerr black hole. |
| kyh1refl | Relativisticly smeared hrefl(powerlaw) emission from an accretion disc around Kerr black hole (valid below ~15keV) |
| kyl1cr | Lamp-post Compton reflection model for an accretion disc around Kerr black hole (valid above ~2keV) |
| kyBBphen | Axisymmetric phenomenological black-body model for an accretion disc around Kerr black hole |
| kyB1Bphe | Non-axisymmetric phenomenological black-body model for an accretion disc around Kerr black hole |
| kyconv | Axisymmetric convolution model for relativistic smearing. |
| kyc1onv | Non-axisymmetric convolution model for relativistic smearing. |
The functions and help files are available in gzipped
tar files. These models also require about 1Gb of data which we make
available in separate files to make the download easier :
fluorescent_line.fits,
KBHline00.fits,
KBHline01.fits,
KBHline02.fits,
KBHtables00.fits,
KBHtables99.fits,
lamp.fits,
refspectra.fits.
These should be placed in some convenient directory. Before invoking
any of these models the user should use the xset command to define
KYDIR as the directory location (eg xset KYDIR /aestas/kaa/ky/fits_files).
