[yt-users] Absorber size from Absorption Spectrum fit?

[Stephanie Tonnesen]

Hi all,

I have a feelling that the answer to this is--nope, not easy or built-in,
but thought I should check before I go nuts staring at the source code.  I
know that once I make a spectrum I can get the column density of all the
absorbers along a LightRay, and the b value.  Is there a way to get the
size, or length, of each absorber?  I see a figure doing this in the Egan
2014 paper, but don't see a clear way to ask for it in any of the calls,
nor do I see anything in Trident.

Thanks,
Stephanie
