blackbody_nu¶

synphot.blackbody.blackbody_nu(in_x, temperature)[source]¶

Calculate blackbody flux per steradian, \(B_{\nu}(T)\).

Note

Use numpy.errstate to suppress Numpy warnings, if desired.

Warning

Output values might contain nan and inf.

Parameters:

in_xnumber, array_like, or Quantity: Frequency, wavelength, or wave number. If not a Quantity, it is assumed to be in Hz.
temperaturenumber, array_like, or Quantity: Blackbody temperature. If not a Quantity, it is assumed to be in Kelvin.

Returns:

fluxQuantity: Blackbody monochromatic flux in \(erg \; cm^{-2} s^{-1} Hz^{-1} sr^{-1}\).

Raises:
