Grid ParametersΒΆ

grid_cells
Number of resolution elements in the grid (i.e., number of concentric spherical shells to consider in 1-D calculation).
logarithmic_grid

If True, discretize space logarithmically, rather than linearly.

Default: False

start_radius
Ignore radiative transfer within this distance from the origin [length_units] Must be done in order to avoid divergence in flux as \(r\rightarrow 0\)
density_units
Hydrogen number density in units of \(\text{cm}^{-3}\) Default: \(1 \ \text{cm}^{-3}\)
length_units
Default: \(10 \times 3.08568 \times 10^{21} \ \text{cm}\) (i.e., 10 kilo-parsec) [centimeters]
time_units
Default: \(3.15576 \times 10^{13} \ \text{s}\) (i.e., 1 Myr) [seconds]
