irfpy.mels.energy

Enery table of MEX/ELS

irfpy.mels.energy.get_default_table(fill_playback=nan)[source]

To return the default energy table of MEX/ELS.

It returns the (128,) shaped array, corresponding to the energy in eV for each energy channel. The energy table is indeed depending on the azimuthal channel, so it is recommended to refer to the irfpy.mels.calpds.energy_table for serious analysis.

Parameters

fill_playback – The last energy step (playback channel) is filled by the given value. If not given, np.nan is placed.

Returns

The energy table in 128 steps in eV.

>>> from irfpy.mels import energy as els3ene
>>> etbl = els3ene.get_default_table()
>>> print('{:.1f}'.format(etbl[70]))    # Energy for the step 70.
