Constructor & Destructor Documentation

def __init__	(		self,
			elem = None,
			spec = None,
			atom = None,
			NLevels = None,
			TemArray = np.logspace(2, 5
	)

Object dealing with Upsilon values from the Chianti database.
The directory where to find the data must be given through the environment variable XUVTOP.
This object is not aimed to be used by itself, it is called by Atom.

def getOmega	(		self,
			tem,
			lev_i = -1,
			lev_j = -1
	)

Return interpolated value of the collision strength value at the given temperature 
    for the complete array or a specified transition.

Usage:
    O3.getOmega(15000.)
    O3.getOmega([8e3, 1e4, 1.2e4])
    O3.getOmega([8e3, 1e4, 1.2e4], 5, 4)

Parameters:
    - tem    electronic temperature in K. May be an array.
    - lev_i  upper level
    - lev_j  lower level

def getOmegaArray	(		self,
			lev_i = -1,
			lev_j = -1
	)

Return array of original tabulated collision strengths for a given transition, 
    as a function of temperature.

Usage:
    O3.getOmegaArray()

Parameters:
    - lev_j  lower level (default= -1, returns complete array)
    - lev_i  upper level (default= -1, returns complete array)

def getSources

(

self

)

Return bibliographic sources for atomic data, as listed in the headers of the fits files

def getTemArray	(		self,
			keep_unit = True
	)

Return array of tabulated original temperature points (as in fits file) 
    of collision strengths.

Parameters:
    - keep_unit   return temperature in file units (default) or change it to Kelvin (False)
