Public Functions

inline IRB_Kneiske04()

virtual double getPhotonDensity(double ePhoton, double z = 0.) const

returns comoving photon density [1/m^3]. multiply with (1+z^3) for physical number density.

Parameters:

ePhoton – photon energy [J]
z – redshift (if redshift dependent, default = 0.)

virtual double getRedshiftScaling(double z) const

returns overall comoving scaling factor (cf. CRPropa3-data/calc_scaling.py)

Parameters:: z – redshift
