Auger Photon Yields ################### When inner shell (or Auger) ionization takes place - there is a chance of photons being eected as the inner shells are re-filled. This data provies the information to compute the photons thus made. It is currently not used. Source ====== This data comes from `Kaastra and Mewe 1993, A&A, 97, 443 `_ . The data is downloaded from the vizier site linked and put into a file called "fluorescent\_yield.data" Translation to SIROCCO format ====================================== The translation takes place using the python script "kaastra_2_py.py". All identical to electron yield, but input file is "fluorescent_yield.data" and output is "kaastra_fluorescent_yield.data" Data format =========== This is the data format of the electron yield data +-----------+--+------+---+--+-------------------+-----------+ |Label |z |state | n |l | photon_energy(eV) |yield | +-----------+--+------+---+--+-------------------+-----------+ |Kphotyield |5 | 1 | 1 |0 | 1.837e+02 | 6.000e-04 | +-----------+--+------+---+--+-------------------+-----------+ |Kphotyield |5 |1 |1 |0 | 1.690e+01 | 7.129e-01 | +-----------+--+------+---+--+-------------------+-----------+ |Kphotyield |6 |1 |1 |0 |2.768e+02 | 2.600e-03 | +-----------+--+------+---+--+-------------------+-----------+ The data is linked to the correct inner shell photoionization cross section (and hence rate) via z, state, n shell and l subshell. The photon energy field is thew energy of the fluorescent photon in eV, and yield is the number of said photons emitted per ionization multiplied by :math:`10^4`. SIROCCO structure ========================== The data is stored in SIROCCO in the inner_fluor_yield structure which contains - int nion - Index to the ion which was the parent of the inner shell ionization - int z, istate - element and ionization state of parent ion - int n, l - Quantum numbers of shell - double freq - the rest frequency of the photon emitted - double yield - number of photons per ionization x :math:`10^4` Comments ======== This data is not currently used
