Predefined Energy Distributions PreviousNext
GX Simulator > Coronal Model >

The built-in coronal model provides the user with three predefined energy distributions:

  1. Free-free only (FFO)
  2. Thermal distribution (THM)
  3. Kappa distribution (KAP)

which may be selected from the pull-down menu.

At any given coronal height, z=h/R, the energy distribution n(E) is normalized by n(z) .

Beside the temperature and density controls used to define the height-dependent density distribution, n(z), any additional field parameters needed to define a specific energy distribution are dynamically created based on user's selection.

Note: The Emin and Emax input fields are used just for display purposes.
