The Power Law input flux distribution is another useful case present in
the UVES ETC.
In this case the input flux distribution
is defined as:
![\begin{displaymath}F(\lambda)=F_{0}\cdot\left(\frac{\lambda}{\lambda_{ref}}\right)^{i}
\end{displaymath}](img29.gif) |
(2.4) |
where
is the wavelength at which the flux is detected,
is the reference wavelength of the power law,
i is the power law index number, in general a real number,
and the reference flux F0 is given by the
(eq. 2.5).
