function ismeuv,wave,Hcol,HeIcol,HeIIcol,Fano=fano ;+ ; NAME: ; ISMEUV ; PURPOSE: ; Compute the interstellar EUV optical depth ; ; EXPLANATION: ; The EUV optical depth is computed from the photoionization of ; hydrogen and helium. ; ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; tau = ISMEUV( wave, Hcol, [ HeIcol, HeIIcol, /Fano ] ; ; INPUTS: ; wave - Vector of wavelength values (in Angstroms). Useful range is ; 40 - 912 A; at shorter wavelengths metal opacity should be ; considered, at longer wavelengths there is no photoionization. ; Hcol - Scalar specifying interstellar hydrogen column density in cm-2. ; Typical values are 1E17 to 1E20. ; ; OUTPUT: ; tau - Vector giving resulting optical depth, same number of elements ; as wave, non-negative values. To obtain the attenuation of ; an input spectrum, multiply by exp(-tau). ; ; OPTIONAL INPUTS: ; HeIcol - Scalar specifying neutral helium column density in cm-2. ; Default is 0.1*Hcol (10% of hydrogen column) ; HeIIcol - Scalar specifying ionized helium column density in cm-2 ; Default is 0 (no HeII) ; ; OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORDS: ; /FANO - If this keyword is set and non-zero, then the 4 strongest ; auto-ionizing resonances of He I are included. The shape ; of these resonances is given by a Fano profile - see Rumph, ; Bowyer, & Vennes 1994, AJ, 107, 2108. If these resonances are ; included then the input wavelength vector should have ; a fine (>~0.01 A) grid between 190 A and 210 A, since the ; resonances are very narrow. ; EXAMPLE: ; (1) One has a model EUV spectrum with wavelength, w (in Angstroms) and ; flux,f . Plot the model flux after attenuation by 1e18 cm-2 of HI, ; with N(HeI)/N(HI) = N(HeII)/N(HI) = 0.05 ; ; IDL> Hcol = 1e18 ; IDL> plot, w, f*exp(-ismeuv(w, Hcol, .05*Hcol, .05*Hcol)) ; ; (2) Plot the cross-section of HeI from 180 A to 220 A for 1e18 cm-2 ; of HeI, showing the auto-ionizing resonances. This is ; Figure 1 in Rumph et al. (1994) ; ; IDL> w = 180 + findgen(40000)*0.001 ;Need a fine wavelength grid ; IDL> plot, w, ismeuv(w, 0, 1e18, /Fano) ; ; HISTORY ; Written, W.
