thermast

sofia_redux.calibration.standard_model.thermast.thermast(Gmag, pV, rsize, phang, dsun, dist, nw=500)

Create a model of the thermal flux from an asteroid.

Follow the process outlined in Delbo and Harris, 2002.

Parameters:

Gmagfloat

Magnitude slope constant.

pVfloat

Albedo of the asteroid in V band.

rsizefloat

Radius of the asteroid in km.

phangfloat

Phase angle of the asteroid in degrees.

dsunfloat

Distance between the Sun and the asteroid in AU.

distfloat

Distance between the Earth and the asteroid in AU.

nwint, optional

Number of wavelength data points to generate. Defaults to 2500.

Returns:

warrnumpy.array

Array of length nw containing the wavelength data.

fluxnumpy.arry

Array of length nw containing the flux emitted by the asteroid at each wavelength in warr.
