lumdens: Luminosity Density

Description

Calculate the luminosity density from a given set of input (Schechter) luminosity function inputs.

Usage

lumdens(knee, slope, norm, msun = solar("r"), mag = TRUE, log = FALSE)

Arguments

knee
The knee(s) of the luminosity distribution
slope
The faint-end slope(s) of the luminosity distribution
norm
The normalisation(s) of the luminosity distribution
msun
The absolute magnitude of the sun
mag
Are the input knee values in magnitudes?
log
Are the input knee values logged?
