•Simplified
procedure:
–Luminosity
Density = total energy per second per unit volume integrating
over all frequencies, for a fully ionized hydrogen
plasma:
–Lvol = 1.42 x 10-27ne2T1/2 ergs/s/cm3
–Sometimes
it can be assumed that you have an isothermal sphere (which
is the case when the dark matter and the gas have the
same radial dependence).
More next week on this.
