- redback.transient_models.magnetar_models.radiative_losses_mdr(time, a_1, alpha_1, l0, tau, kappa, log_e0, t0_s, **kwargs)[source]
radiative losses model for vacuum dipole radiation
- Parameters:
time – time in seconds
A_1 – amplitude of curvature effect power law
alpha_1 – index of curvature effect power law
l0 – initial luminosity parameter
tau – spin-down damping timescale
kappa – radiative efficiency
t0_s – time for radiative losses to start in seconds
log_e0 – log10 E0 to connect curvature effect energy smoothly with transition point energy
kwargs – key word arguments for handling plotting/other functionality
- Returns:
luminosity
