relline, relline_lp, relline_lp_ext: relativistic accretion disk line emission with different geometries

Model for the relativistically-broadened emission line from an accretion disk around a black hole. The basic code is described in Dauser et al. (2010) and the extension to lamp post geometries in Dauser et al. (2013).

The parameters for relline are :

par1 lineE: rest frame line energy (keV)
par2 Index1: emissivity index for the inner disk
par3 Index2: emissivity index for the outer disk
par4 Rbr: break radius separating the inner and outer portions of the disk (gravitational radii)
par5 a: dimensionless black hole spin
par6 Incl: disk inclination angle to the line of sight (degrees)
par7 Rin: inner radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par8 Rout: outer radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par9 z: redshift
par10 limb: limb-darkening/-brightening law with 0=isotropic, 1=darkening (flux 1+2.06mu), 2=brightening (flux ln(1+1/mu)) where mu=cos(emission angle)
norm flux in line (photons/cm$^2$/s)

The parameters for rellinelp are :

par1 lineE: rest frame line energy (keV)
par2 h: height of the primary source (GM/c2̂)
par3 a: dimensionless black hole spin
par4 Incl: disk inclination angle to the line of sight (degrees)
par5 Rin: inner radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par6 Rout: outer radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par7 z: redshift
par8 limb: limb-darkening/-brightening law with 0=isotropic, 1=darkening (flux 1+2.06mu), 2=brightening (flux ln(1+1/mu)) where mu=cos(emission angle)
par9 gamma: power-law index of the primary source (E-̂gamma)
norm flux in line (photons/cm$^2$/s)

and the parameters for rellinelpext are :

par1 lineE: rest frame line energy (keV)
par2 a: dimensionless black hole spin
par3 Incl: disk inclination angle to the line of sight (degrees)
par4 Rin: inner radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par5 Rout: outer radius of the disk in units of the radius of marginal stability
par6 z: redshift
par7 limb: limb-darkening/-brightening law with 0=isotropic, 1=darkening (flux 1+2.06mu), 2=brightening (flux ln(1+1/mu)) where mu=cos(emission angle)
par8 gamma: power-law index of the primary source (E-̂gamma)
par9 hbase: lower height of radially extended primary source
par10 htop: upper height of radially extended primary source
par11 vbase: velocity of the source at hbase
par12 v100: velocity of the source at 100 rg above hbase
norm flux in line (photons/cm$^2$/s)
