Fluorescence

class showermodel.fluorescence.Fluorescence(profile)

Bases: DataFrame

DataFrame containing the fluorescence light production.

Fluorescence light is evaluated at each of the 57 bands of the fluorescence spectrum in the 280 - 670 nm range based on the parameterization described in D. Morcuende et al., Astropart. Phys. 107(2019)26 and references therein.
