Detailed Description

This class calculates the solar continuum spectrum.

This particular implementation uses a table to calculate the Solar Planck Function, doing a linear interpolation for points in between.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ SolarContinuumTable()

SolarContinuumTable::SolarContinuumTable	(	const HdfFile &	F,
		const std::string &	Hdf_group,
		bool	Convert_from_photon = `true`
	)

Constructor.

There are two conventions used for the reported solar spectrum. For OCO, we give the results as ph/s/m^2/micron, while for GOSAT we convert using the number of photons at each wavenumber to give W/m^2/cm^-1. You can choose the convention used by specifying if we Convert_from_photon or not.

Member Function Documentation

◆ print()

void SolarContinuumTable::print ( std::ostream & Os ) const

virtual

Reimplemented from FullPhysics::SolarContinuumSpectrum.

Definition at line 65 of file solar_continuum_table.cc.

◆ print_to_string()

std::string FullPhysics::Printable< SolarContinuumSpectrum >::print_to_string ( ) const

inlineinherited

Print to string.

This is primarily useful for SWIG wrappers to this class, e.g. a to_s method in ruby.

Definition at line 31 of file printable.h.

◆ solar_continuum_spectrum()

Spectrum SolarContinuumTable::solar_continuum_spectrum ( const SpectralDomain & Spec_domain ) const

virtual

This calculate the solar continuum spectrum.

This calculates this at an Earth-Sun distance of 1 AU, this needs to be scaled by the square of the actual distance.

Parameters

Spec_domain Wavenumber/Wavelength to return solar continuum spectrum for.

Returns: The solar continuum spectrum at 1 AU.

Note that the spectral domain here is in the solar rest frame, not the earth rest frame used in most other places. The class SolarAbsorptionAndContinuum handles this conversion internally.

Implements FullPhysics::SolarContinuumSpectrum.
