System Description ################## The first set of parameters which SIROCCO needs are information about the overall system. .. code:: System_type(star,cv,bh,agn,previous) bh ### Parameters for the Central Object Central_object.mass(msol) 10 Central_object.radius(cm) 8.85667e+06 Binary.mass_sec(msol) 0.4 Binary.period(hr) 3.2 ### Parameters for the Disk (if there is one) Disk.type(none,flat,vertically.extended,rmin>central.obj.rad) flat Disk.radiation(yes,no) yes Disk.rad_type_to_make_wind(bb,models,mod_bb) bb Disk.temperature.profile(standard,readin) standard Disk.mdot(msol/yr) 1e-08 Disk.radmax(cm) 2.657e+08 ### Parameters for Boundary Layer or the compact object in an X-ray Binary or AGN Central_object.radiation(yes,no) yes Central_object.rad_type_to_make_wind(bb,models,power,cloudy,brems,mono) power Central_object.luminosity(ergs/s) 4.72063e+37 Central_object.power_law_index -1.5 Central_object.geometry_for_source(sphere,lamp_post,bubble) sphere :ref:`System_type` is starting point, a basic classification of the type of object one is trying to model. This is used to guide further questions about the object and to set defaults. Most of the other parameters are fairly self-explanatory, and are documented fully in the various :ref:`Parameters` entries.
