SFLUX

SFLUX calculates the energy flux and number of photons in a model spectrum integrated between two energy limits. The number of energy channels used for the integration is 1000 by default, but may be overridden on the command line using the keyword NCH (max value allowed is 5000).

The output is the energy flux in (ergs/cm**2/sec) and photon flux in (photons/cm**2/sec) which are output to the terminal and optionally to parameters.

The optional SPLIT keyword enables the absorbed fluxes of all the additive model components in a composite model to be displayed.

Note that redshifted spectra are corrected such that the flux seen at Earth in the specified energy range is returned. The redshift previously set up for SFIT will be used automatically (unless overridden by keyword).
