karmer.py – Kramer opacity class for CoolDwarf

This module contains the KramerOpac class, which is used to calculate the Kramer opacity for a given temperature and density.

Example usage

>>> from CoolDwarf.opac.kramer import KramerOpac
>>> X, Z = 0.7, 0.02
>>> opac = KramerOpac(X, Z)
>>> temp, density = 1e7, 1e-2
>>> kappa = opac.kappa(temp, density)
