VegasAfterglow Gaussian jet with unified medium (ISM/Wind/Hybrid)

Gaussian structured jet where energy and Lorentz factor follow Gaussian profiles in angle theta: E(theta) ~ E_iso * exp(-theta^2 / (2*theta_c^2))

Parameters:

  • time – time in days in observer frame

  • redshift – source redshift

  • thv – viewing angle in radians

  • loge0 – log10 isotropic equivalent energy [erg]

  • thc – jet core opening angle in radians

  • lognism – log10 ISM number density [cm^-3] (use small number e.g., -20) for pure wind)

  • loga – log10 wind parameter A_* [g/cm] (use small number e.g., -20 for pure ISM)

  • p – electron power-law index

  • logepse – log10 electron energy fraction

  • logepsb – log10 magnetic field energy fraction

  • g0 – initial Lorentz factor

  • kwargs – Same optional parameters as vegas_tophat (see vegas_tophat docstring)

Returns:

flux density [mJy] or AB magnitude

Examples:

Pure ISM: lognism=0.0, loga=-20 Pure Wind: lognism=-20, loga=11.0 Hybrid: lognism=0.0, loga=11.0 (wind with ISM floor)
