Extragalactic background light model from Stecker et al. 2016 (lower-bound model)

Source info: DOI:10.3847/0004-637X/827/1/6 https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.3847/0004-637X/827/1/6

Public Functions

inline IRB_Stecker16_lower()
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
