Fluorescence

class showermodel.fluorescence.Fluorescence(profile)

Bases: DataFrame

DataFrame containing the fluorescence light production.

Fluorescence light is evaluated at each of the 34 bands of the fluorescence spectrum in the 290 - 430 nm range based on the parameterization described in D. Morcuende et al., Astropart. Phys. 107(2019)26 and references therein.
