redback.transient_models.magnetar_driven_ejecta_models.basic_mergernova(time, redshift, mej, beta, ejecta_radius, kappa, n_ism, p0, bp, mass_ns, theta_pb, thermalisation_efficiency, **kwargs)[source]
Parameters:

  • time – time in observer frame in days

  • redshift – redshift

  • mej – ejecta mass in solar units

  • beta – initial ejecta velocity

  • ejecta_radius – initial ejecta radius

  • kappa – opacity

  • n_ism – ism number density

  • p0 – initial spin period in milliseconds

  • bp – polar magnetic field strength in units of 10^14 Gauss

  • mass_ns – mass of neutron star in solar masses

  • theta_pb – angle between spin and magnetic field axes in radians

  • thermalisation_efficiency – magnetar thermalisation efficiency

  • kwargs – Additional parameters

  • pair_cascade_switch – whether to account for pair cascade losses, default is False

  • frequency – Required if output_format is ‘flux_density’. frequency to calculate - Must be same length as time array or a single number).

  • bands – Required if output_format is ‘magnitude’ or ‘flux’.

  • output_format – ‘flux_density’, ‘magnitude’, ‘spectra’, ‘flux’, ‘sncosmo_source’

  • lambda_array – Optional argument to set your desired wavelength array (in Angstroms) to evaluate the SED on.

  • cosmology – Cosmology to use for luminosity distance calculation. Defaults to Planck18. Must be a astropy.cosmology object.

Returns:

set by output format - ‘flux_density’, ‘magnitude’, ‘spectra’, ‘flux’, ‘sncosmo_source’
