            cutoffpl: power law, high energy exponential cutoff

A power law with high energy exponential rolloff.

par1 = a

power law photon index

par2 = b

e-folding energy of exponential rolloff (in keV)

norm = K

Photons keV-1cm-2s-1 at 1 keV

 

If POW_EMIN and POW_EMAX have been defined by the xset command then the norm becomes the flux in units of 10-12 ergs cm-2 s-1 over the energy range (POW_EMIN, POW_EMAX) keV unless POW_EMIN = POW_EMAX in which case the norm becomes the flux density in micro-Jansky at POW_EMIN keV. In these cases it is important that POW_EMIN and POW_EMAX lie within the energy range on which the model is being evaluated.
