[yt-users] Xray luminosity in yt

[Eric Hallman]

Yuan,
  Sam Skillman has a routine for this that takes lookup tables as an input (as Britton says).  It computes fixed-band X-ray emissivity with lines and thermal bremsstrahlung.  I use it, but I don't remember at the moment where the current table files are.  I'm sure Sam will point you in the right direction.

It requires these data tables that do not ship with yt, but I think we would be happy to provide you with them.
