Detailed Description
Powerlaw imf objects (exponent = 1.35: Salpeter imf)Member Data Documentation
double CPowerlaw::exponent [private] |
power law of the shape x^(-(exponent+1)). exponent-1.35: Salpeter IMF
double CPowerlaw::lower_mass_bound [private] |
lower mass bound of the imf
double CPowerlaw::norm [private] |
Interpreting the IMF phi(m) as the chance of having a star with mass m, norm is the resulting normalisation constant: {mL}^{mu} (m)dm = 1
double CPowerlaw::nstarall_coeff [private] |
coefficient used to get the total number of stars in the SSP
double CPowerlaw::nstarfrac_coeff [private] |
coefficient used to get the number of stars in a mass interval
double CPowerlaw::upper_mass_bound [private] |
upper mass bound of the imf
