PsplupsParser#

class fiasco.io.sources.PsplupsParser(ion_filename, **kwargs)[source]#

Bases: ScupsParser

Spline fits to scaled collision rates for protons. These files are discussed in section 2.2 of Young et al. [YDZL+03] and the details of how these quantities are scaled are given in Burgess and Tully [BT92].

Notes

  • Unlike the electron “scups” and “splups” files which contain the collision strengths (upsilons), these files contain the scaled rates.

  • The number of spline points for the rates depends on the fit type, 5 points for type 6 fits and 9 points for type 2.
