Physics Models

The building blocks of tengri’s forward model: star formation history parameterisations, power spectral density functions, dust attenuation, stellar population synthesis, and filter handling.

Star Formation History

Analytic mean-SFH functional forms. Each takes a log-age grid and shape parameters, returning SFR in solar masses per year.

tengri.tsnorm(t_lookback: Array, log_peak_sfr: float, peak_lbt: float, width: float, skew: float, trunc: float) → Array

Truncated skew-normal star formation history (Bellstedt+2020).

The most flexible smooth SFH model: a skewed Gaussian kernel multiplied by a normal CDF truncation factor that smoothly suppresses star formation at recent times (young lookback times).

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• log_peak_sfr (float) – log10 of peak SFR [Msun/yr].

• peak_lbt (float) – Peak lookback time [yr].

• width (float) – Gaussian width parameter [yr].

• skew (float) – Skewness parameter [dimensionless]. 0 = symmetric, >0 skews toward older ages.

• trunc (float) – Truncation sharpness [dimensionless]. Larger values produce sharper truncation. Typical range: 1-10.

Returns:

SFR at each lookback time [Msun/yr], non-negative.

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives and jax.lax.erfc.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere except at SFR=0 (where gradient is ill-defined but finite).

The SFH is:

\[\mathrm{SFR}(t) = 10^{\log_{\rm peak}} \, K(t) \, T(t)\]

where \(K(t)\) is the skewed Gaussian kernel and \(T(t)\) is the truncation factor:

\[K(t) = \exp\left( -\frac{Y(t)^2}{2} \right), \quad Y(t) = \frac{t - t_{\rm peak}}{w} \exp(\gamma \, \mathrm{arcsinh}(Y))\]

\[T(t) = \frac{1}{2} \mathrm{erfc}\left( \frac{t - t_{\rm peak}}{w \cdot f_{\rm trunc} \sqrt{2}} \right) # noqa: E501\]

where \(w\) is width [yr], \(\gamma\) is skewness [dimensionless], and \(f_{\rm trunc}\) is the truncation sharpness [dimensionless].

Approximation: The skewness is implemented via the Robotham+2020 formulation (arcsinh-based) rather than the classical Owen’s lambda transformation. This provides better numerical stability and JAX compatibility.

tengri.dpl(t_lookback: Array, alpha: float, beta: float, tau: float, log_peak_sfr: float) → Array

Double power law with log-peak SFR parameterization (canonical).

Registry-compatible wrapper around the Carnall+2018 double power law. Uses log10(peak_sfr) instead of linear normalization for consistency with other parametric SFH models in the registry.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• alpha (float) – Falling slope exponent [dimensionless]. Typical range: 0.5-4.

• beta (float) – Rising slope exponent [dimensionless]. Typical range: 0.3-3.

• tau (float) – Turnover timescale [yr].

• log_peak_sfr (float) – log10 of peak SFR [Msun/yr].

Returns:

SFR at each lookback time [Msun/yr].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

This function wraps double_powerlaw() with norm = 10**log_peak_sfr. See double_powerlaw() for physics details.

Examples

>>> import jax.numpy as jnp
>>> from tengri import dpl
>>> t = jnp.logspace(7, 10.14, 64)
>>> sfr = dpl(t, alpha=1.5, beta=0.5, tau=3e9, log_peak_sfr=1.5)
>>> sfr.shape

tengri.double_powerlaw(t_lookback: Array, alpha: float, beta: float, tau: float, norm: float) → Array

Double power law star formation history (Carnall+2018, BAGPIPES).

A flexible two-parameter SFH model that peaks near a characteristic timescale and can smoothly transition between rising and declining phases.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• alpha (float) – Falling slope exponent [dimensionless]. Controls the decline from peak to present. Larger alpha = steeper decline. Typical range: 0.5-4.

• beta (float) – Rising slope exponent [dimensionless]. Controls the rise from early times to peak. Larger beta = steeper rise. Typical range: 0.3-3.

• tau (float) – Turnover timescale [yr]. Approximately when SFR peaks (in cosmic time).

• norm (float) – Normalization factor [Msun/yr]. Note: this controls overall amplitude, not stellar mass. \(M_\star = \int \mathrm{SFR}(t) \, dt\) is derived.

Returns:

SFR at each lookback time [Msun/yr].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere for positive tau.

The double power law SFH is:

\[\mathrm{SFR}(t_{\rm cosmic}) = \frac{n}{(t_{\rm cosmic}/\tau)^\alpha + (t_{\rm cosmic}/\tau)^{-\beta}} # noqa: E501\]

where \(t_{\rm cosmic} = t_{\mathrm{H}} - t_{\rm lookback}\) is cosmic time since the Big Bang, \(t_{\mathrm{H}}\) is the age of the universe, \(\tau\) is the turnover timescale, and \(\alpha\), \(\beta\) are the falling and rising slopes [dimensionless].

In cosmic time: \(\alpha\) controls the declining phase (after peak), \(\beta\) controls the rising phase (before peak).

In lookback time (as plotted): \(\alpha\) controls the RIGHT side (early universe, large lookback), \(\beta\) controls the LEFT side (near present, small lookback).

tengri.norm(t_lookback: Array, log_peak_sfr: float, peak_lbt: float, width: float) → Array

Gaussian (normal) SFH — skewnormal with skew=0.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• log_peak_sfr (float) – log10 of peak SFR [Msun/yr].

• peak_lbt (float) – Peak lookback time [yr].

(64,)

tengri.lnorm(t_lookback: Array, log_peak_sfr: float, peak_lbt: float, width: float) → Array

Log-normal SFH — Gaussian in log10(age) space.

The mode in log10(age) space is peak_lbt, but the peak in linear time is shifted: t_peak_linear = peak_lbt * 10^{-w^2 * ln(10)}. For w=0.3, this is a ~15% shift toward younger ages. peak_lbt is best interpreted as the median lookback time, not the linear peak.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• log_peak_sfr (float) – log10 of peak SFR [Msun/yr].

• peak_lbt (float) – Peak lookback time [yr]. Converted to log10 internally.

• width (float) – Width in log10(age) space [dex].

Returns:

SFR at each lookback time [Msun/yr], non-negative.

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

Examples

>>> import jax.numpy as jnp
>>> from tengri.components.stellar.sfh import lognormal
>>> t = jnp.logspace(7, 10.14, 64)

tengri.delayed_tau(t_lookback: Array, tau: float, norm: float) → Array

Delayed-tau SFH: SFR(t) = norm * t * exp(-t/tau). Peaks at t=tau.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• tau (float) – Timescale [yr].

• norm (float) – Normalization factor [Msun/yr].

Returns:

SFR at each lookback time [Msun/yr].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives.

Examples

>>> import jax.numpy as jnp
>>> from tengri import delayed_tau

>>> sfr.shape
(64,)

tengri.triweight_burst(t_lookback: Array, log_tpeak_myr: float, log_tmax_myr: float) → Array

Triweight burst kernel in log-age space (Zacharegkas+2025).

A compact-support kernel for modeling starburst episodes. The kernel is smooth, has finite support in log-age space, and is designed for composition with smooth SFH models via mass-fraction mixing.

Parameters:

• t_lookback (array_like, shape (n_age,)) – Lookback time [yr].

• log_tpeak_myr (float) – log10 of burst peak time [Myr]. Center of the kernel in log-age space.

• log_tmax_myr (float) – log10 of burst duration [Myr]. Controls the kernel half-width. The kernel has support roughly ±:math:3 imes 10^{log_{mathrm{tmax}}} Myr.

Returns:

Unnormalized burst shape [dimensionless], non-negative. Integrates to ~1.

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_age,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

This is a shape-only function (unitless, not in Msun/yr). The burst amplitude is set by the burst mixture fraction in the composition step.

The triweight kernel in normalized variable \(u = x/3\) is:

\[K(u) = \frac{35}{96} (1 - u^2)^3, \quad |u| < 1\]

where \(x\) is the normalized time offset from peak, defined as # noqa: E501 \((\log_{10}(t/\mathrm{Myr}) - \log_{10}(t_{\rm peak}/\mathrm{Myr})) / \log_{10}(t_{\rm max}/\mathrm{Myr})\).

The kernel has compact support (finite extent) and is \(C^{\infty}\) smooth. It is superior to Gaussian kernels for burst modeling because it avoids the extended low-level wings that affect neighboring age bins.

SFH Registry

tengri.resolve_sfh(mean_sfh_type: str | list[str], bin_edges_gyr: object = None) → tuple[object, dict[str, ParamDef], dict[str, tuple[str, float, float]], dict[str, Any]]

Resolve SFH specification to a composed function + params.

Parameters:

• mean_sfh_type (str or list[str]) – Model name(s). E.g., "tsnorm" or ["tsnorm", "burst", "field"].

• bin_edges_gyr (array-like, shape (n_bins+1,), optional) – Custom age bin edges [Gyr] for continuity and dirichlet models. When provided, overrides the default DEFAULT_BIN_EDGES_GYR. Use make_agebins_from_zred to generate redshift-appropriate edges. Ignored for non-nonparametric models. Default None (use model default).

Returns:

• composed_fn (callable) – Pure JAX function: fn(t_lookback, **all_internal_kwargs) -> SFR [Msun/yr].

• merged_params (dict[str, ParamDef]) – All fittable parameters across selected models.

• merged_param_map (dict[str, tuple[str, float, float]]) – Public name -> (internal, scale, offset) for all params.

• merged_settings (dict[str, Any]) – Non-fittable settings (e.g., sfh_field_ngrid).

Raises:

• KeyError – If a model name is not in the registry.

• ValueError – If composition constraints are violated (e.g., >1 burst, no smooth component).

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — returns a JIT-compatible closure (composed_fn).

Composition rules:

• Additive: smooth models summed. E.g., ["tsnorm", "dpl"] yields SFR_total = SFR_tsnorm + SFR_dpl.

• Mixture (burst): mass-fraction weighted, replaces smooth. E.g., ["tsnorm", "burst"] yields SFR = (1-f)*SFR_tsnorm + f*burst_shape.

• Modulator (field): multiplicative GP modulation. E.g., ["tsnorm", "field"] yields SFR = SFR_tsnorm * exp(gp_x - K_0/2).

Auto-swap: dense_basis → dense_basis_pure if burst or field is present (to avoid SFR constraint interference with composition).

Power Spectral Density

DRW (damped random walk) PSD models that govern the burstiness of star formation histories via Gaussian process priors.

tengri.psd_drw(omega: Array, psd_sigma: float, psd_tau_yr: float) → Array

Damped random walk (Lorentzian) power spectral density.

Parameters:

• omega (array_like, shape (n_freq,)) – Angular frequency [rad/yr].

• psd_sigma (float) – PSD amplitude (dimensionless).

• psd_tau_yr (float) – Characteristic damping timescale [yr].

Returns:

Power spectral density at each frequency [dimensionless].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_freq,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

The damped random walk (Lorentzian) power spectral density is:

\[\begin{split}P(\\omega) = \\sigma_{\rm PS}^2 \\,\tau_{\rm PS} / (1 + (\tau_{\rm PS} \\omega)^2)\end{split}\]

where \(\\sigma_{\rm PS}\) is the PSD amplitude [dimensionless], \(\tau_{\rm PS}\) is the damping timescale [yr], and \(\\omega\) is the angular frequency [rad/yr].

This is the primary PSD model used in tengri for stochastic SFH modeling.

tengri.drw_acf(delta_t: Array, psd_sigma: float, psd_tau_yr: float) → Array

Analytic autocorrelation function (autocovariance) for DRW.

Parameters:

• delta_t (array_like, shape (n_lag,)) – Time lag [yr].

• psd_sigma (float) – PSD amplitude (dimensionless).

• psd_tau_yr (float) – Damping timescale [yr].

Returns:

Autocovariance at each lag [dimensionless].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_lag,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

The autocovariance (autocorrelation function) of the DRW is:

\[\xi(\Delta t) = \frac{\sigma_{\rm PS}^2}{2} \exp\!\left( -\frac{|\Delta t|}{\tau_{\rm PS}} \right)\]

where \(\sigma_{\rm PS}\) is the PSD amplitude, \(\tau_{\rm PS}\) is the damping timescale [yr], and \(\Delta t\) is the time lag [yr].

Examples

>>> import jax.numpy as jnp
>>> from tengri import drw_acf
>>> lags = jnp.array([0.0, 1e7, 1e8, 1e9])  # time lags [yr]
>>> acf = drw_acf(lags, psd_sigma=1.0, psd_tau_yr=1e8)
>>> acf.shape

>>> float(acf[0])  # variance at zero lag = sigma^2 / 2

tengri.drw_variance(psd_sigma: float) → float

Stationary variance of DRW.

psd_sigmafloat

PSD amplitude (dimensionless).

float

Stationary variance [dimensionless].

JIT-compatible: yes — scalar arithmetic.

The stationary variance of a DRW is:

\[\sigma_x^2 = \frac{\sigma_{\]

m PS}^2}{2}

where :math:`sigma_{

m PS}` is the PSD amplitude.

tengri.compute_sqrt_power_drw(n_points: int, d_log_age: float, psd_sigma: float, psd_tau_yr: float, log_age_ref: float = 8.0) → Array

Pre-compute DRW amplitude operator for log-age grid.

Converts the DRW PSD from physical frequency (rad/yr) to log-age frequency space (rad/dex) using the Jacobian correction for the change of variables from linear time \(t\) to log-time \(u = \log_{10} t\).

n_pointsint

Grid size (number of age samples).

d_log_agefloat

Grid spacing in dex [dimensionless].

psd_sigmafloat

DRW PSD amplitude [dimensionless].

psd_tau_yrfloat

DRW damping timescale [yr].

log_age_reffloat, optional

Reference log10(age/yr) for Jacobian correction. Default: 8.0 (100 Myr).

ndarray, shape (n_freq,)

Amplitude operator \(\sqrt{P_u(q) / \Delta u}\) at rfft frequencies in log-age space [dimensionless].

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

The Jacobian correction for the change of variables from cosmic time \(t\) (in years) to log-age \(u = \log_{10}(t)\) is:

\[P_u(q) = P_t\left( \frac{q}{t_{\rm ref} \ln 10} \right) / (t_{\rm ref} \ln 10)\]

where :math:`t_{rm ref} = 10^{log_{

m age, ref}}` is a reference time,

\(q\) is the angular frequency in log-age space [rad/dex], and \(P_t\) is the PSD in physical frequency space.

The reference time scales out in the power spectrum but affects the mapping between physical and log-age frequencies. A typical choice is the midpoint of the age range (e.g., 100 Myr ~ 8 Gyr cosmic age).

GP Generation

Functions for generating Gaussian process realisations from PSD parameters and a latent vector.

tengri.compute_field_gp(xi: Array, psd_sigma: float, psd_tau_yr: float, n_grid: int, d_log_age: float, field_model: str = 'drw') → tuple[Array, float]

Compute GP realization and lognormal correction for the field component.

Parameters:

• xi (array, shape (n_grid,)) – Latent vector (xi ~ N(0, I)).

• psd_sigma (float) – PSD amplitude (dex).

• psd_tau_yr (float) – PSD timescale (yr).

• n_grid (int) – Grid size.

• d_log_age (float) – Grid spacing in dex.

• field_model (str) – PSD model name. Default “drw”.

Returns:

• gp_x (array, shape (n_grid,)) – GP realization on the log-age grid.

• k0_half (float) – Lognormal correction: K(0)/2 = sigma_PS^2 / 4.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses gp_from_xi and PSD model functions from the field model registry.

The Gaussian process realization models burstiness via a correlated random field in log-space. The PSD model (e.g., “drw” for Damped Random Walk) controls temporal correlations. The lognormal correction k0_half accounts for the bias introduced when exponentiation is applied to the Gaussian latents.

Examples

>>> import jax.numpy as jnp
>>> from tengri import compute_field_gp, make_log_age_grid
>>> n = 64
>>> grid = make_log_age_grid(n)
>>> d = float(grid[1] - grid[0])
>>> xi = jnp.zeros(n)
>>> gp_x, k0_half = compute_field_gp(xi, psd_sigma=1.0, psd_tau_yr=1e8, n_grid=n, d_log_age=d)
>>> gp_x.shape

ndarray, shape (n_points,)

GP realization on the log-age grid [dimensionless].

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp.fft.rfft and jnp.fft.irfft.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable w.r.t. sqrt_power.

Implements the NIFTy correlated field model:

\[s = \mathrm{IFFT}(\sqrt{P} \cdot \hat{\xi})\]

The rfft (real FFT) preserves Hermitian symmetry for real-valued output and ensures correct variance normalization: \(E[|\mathrm{rfft}(\xi)_k|^2] = N\), so with \(\sqrt{P/\Delta x}\) we recover \(\mathrm{Var}[s] = \int P(f) df\).

This is the primary function called during MCMC inference and mock galaxy generation. The sampler proposes values of \(\xi\) and this function maps them to correlated SFH realizations.

tengri.make_log_age_grid(n_grid: int = 256, log_age_min: float = 6.0, log_age_max: float = 10.14) → Array

Create uniform grid in log10(age/yr).

Default range: 1 Myr to ~13.8 Gyr (approximately the age of the universe).

Parameters:

• n_grid (int, optional) – Number of grid points (should be even for FFT efficiency). Default: 256.

• log_age_min (float, optional) – Minimum log10(age/yr). Default: 6.0 (1 Myr).

• log_age_max (float, optional) – Maximum log10(age/yr). Default: 10.14 (~13.8 Gyr).

Returns:

Uniform grid in log10(age/yr) [dimensionless log values].

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_grid,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp.linspace.

This grid is used as the internal representation for age in GP-based SFH models. The log-space parametrization provides better resolution at young ages and maps naturally to the logarithmic timescales of stellar evolution.

Dust Attenuation

Two-component dust attenuation (birth cloud + diffuse ISM) following Charlot & Fall (2000), with pluggable attenuation curves and geometry models.

tengri.two_component_dust(wavelength: Array, age_grid: Array, tau_v1: float, tau_v2: float, law_bc: str = 'power_law', law_diff: str = 'power_law', f_obscuration: float = 0.0, t_birth: float = 10000000.0, transition_width: float = 0.3, **law_params) → Array

Two-component dust attenuation following Charlot & Fall (2000) with smooth age transition.

Separates dust into birth-cloud (young stars) and diffuse ISM (all stars) components with independent optical depths and attenuation curves. Transition between components uses a smooth sigmoid in log-age, enabling automatic differentiation.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• age_grid (array_like, shape (n_ages,)) – Stellar population ages. [yr]

• tau_v1 (float) – Birth-cloud V-band optical depth (at 5500 Å). [dimensionless] Note: tengri applies tau_bc internally but exposes tau_v1 after normalizing by attenuation curve slope. See docs/known_bugs.md (CROSSVAL-01) for cross-code comparison.

• tau_v2 (float) – Diffuse ISM V-band optical depth. [dimensionless]

• law_bc (str, optional) – Attenuation curve name for birth cloud. Default: “power_law”. Resolved from DUST_LAWS registry.

• law_diff (str, optional) – Attenuation curve name for diffuse ISM. Default: “power_law”.

• f_obscuration (float, optional) – Fraction of unattenuated sightlines in clumpy geometry (Lower 2022). [dimensionless, in [0, 1]] Default: 0.0 (uniform screen).

• t_birth (float, optional) – Birth-cloud dispersal age (sigmoid center). [yr] Default: 1e7 (10 Myr).

• transition_width (float, optional) – Sigmoid transition width in dex. [dimensionless] Default: 0.3 (~5-20 Myr range).

• **law_params – Keyword arguments passed to attenuation curve functions (e.g., n_slope, dust_bump_strength, dust_delta, dust_Rv).

Returns:

Multiplicative transmission factor T(λ, t_age), where T ∈ [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_ages, n_wave)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives and safe for jax.jit.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere; smooth sigmoid age transition preserves gradients through the birth-cloud boundary.

The total optical depth is:

\[\tau(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = w(t_{\text{age}}) \cdot \tau_{{\rm V,BC}} \cdot k_{\rm BC}(\lambda) + \tau_{{\rm V,ISM}} \cdot k_{\rm ISM}(\lambda)\]

where \(w(t_{\text{age}})\) is the sigmoid weight:

\[w(t_{\text{age}}) = \sigma\left(-\frac{\log_{10} t_{\text{age}} - \log_{10} t_{\text{birth}}}{\Delta_{\text{trans}}}\right)\]

and \(\sigma(x) = 1/(1 + e^{-x})\) is the logistic sigmoid. The transmission is then:

\[T(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = f_{\rm obs} + (1 - f_{\rm obs}) \cdot \exp[-\tau(\lambda, t_{\text{age}})]\]

where \(f_{\rm obs}\) is the unattenuated sightline fraction.

Upstream: Implements the Charlot & Fall (2000) two-component framework [1]_ with sigmoid age transition following tengri’s differentiable design. Birth-cloud + diffuse ISM separation enables realistic modeling of age-dependent dust geometry in galaxies.

Dust attenuation model for tengri.

This module provides a generalized two-component dust attenuation framework (Charlot & Fall 2000) with pluggable attenuation curves and clumpy dust geometry (f_obscuration, Lower 2022).

Structure

Two physical components with independent attenuation curves: - Birth cloud: affects young stars (age < t_birth), optical depth tau_v1 - Diffuse ISM: affects all stars, optical depth tau_v2

The wavelength dependence k(lambda) is pluggable per component:

tau(lambda, age) = w(age) * tau_v1 * k_bc(lambda) + tau_v2 * k_diff(lambda)
transmission = f_obs + (1 - f_obs) * exp(-tau)

where w(age) is a smooth sigmoid transition at t_birth.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid in Angstrom.

Narayanan+2018 redshift-dependent attenuation.

Uses the Kriek & Conroy (2013) curve with z-dependent median parameters calibrated on SIMBA cosmological radiative-transfer simulations.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• dust_delta (float) – Power-law slope modification. [dimensionless] Default: -0.2 (triggers z-scaling).

Noll et al. (2009) modified Calzetti + L02 with UV bump + slope delta.

This is the N09 model from the dust_attenuation package. Uses Leitherer (2002) for λ < 1500 Å and Calzetti (2000) above. The modification order is: (base + bump) × power_law.

This differs from kriek_conroy which does NOT use L02 and applies the bump AFTER the slope: base × power_law + bump.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• dust_bump_strength (float) – Amplitude of 2175 Å UV bump (E_b). [dimensionless] Default: 0.0 (no bump).

• dust_delta (float) – Power-law slope modification. [dimensionless] Default: 0.0 (pure Calzetti+L02).

• dust_bump_x0 (float) – Central wavelength of UV bump. [μm] Default: 0.2175.

• dust_bump_gamma (float) – FWHM of UV bump. [μm] Default: 0.035.

Returns:

Attenuation curve k(λ) = k’(λ) / R_V with R_V = 4.05. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The attenuation is:

\[k(\lambda) = [k_{\rm L02+C00}(\lambda) + E_b D(\lambda; \lambda_0, \gamma)] \times \left(\frac{\lambda}{5500 \, \text{\AA}}\right)^\delta / R_V\]

Normalization follows the dust_attenuation package convention: k(λ) = k’(λ)/R_V where R_V = 4.05 is fixed. This means k(V) is NOT exactly 1.0 when bump or slope modifications are applied.

Parameters:

• n_slope (float, optional) – Power-law slope. Default: -0.7 (standard Charlot & Fall). [dimensionless]

Returns:

Normalized attenuation curve k(λ), where k(5500 Å) = 1. [dimensionless]

Return type:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The attenuation is:

\[k(\lambda) = \left(\frac{\lambda}{5500 \, \text{\AA}}\right)^n\]

where \(n = -0.7\) produces the standard Charlot & Fall (2000) wavelength dependence. Negative slopes make dust redder (stronger attenuation at short wavelengths).

tengri.components.dust.attenuation.precompute_dust_age_mask(age_grid: Array, t_birth: float = 10000000.0) → tuple[Array, Array]

Precompute hard young/old masks for fast two-CSP dust decomposition.

Uses a hard threshold at t_birth instead of a smooth sigmoid. This is the original Charlot & Fall (2000) formulation and enables a fast path where dust is factored out of the age sum entirely.

Parameters:

• age_grid (array_like, shape (n_ages,)) – Stellar population ages. [yr]

• t_birth (float) – Birth cloud dispersal age. [yr] Default: 1e7 (10 Myr).

Returns:

• young_mask (ndarray, shape (n_ages,)) – 1.0 for young ages (< t_birth), 0.0 for old. [dimensionless]

• old_mask (ndarray, shape (n_ages,)) – 1.0 for old ages (≥ t_birth), 0.0 for young. [dimensionless]

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The original Charlot & Fall (2000) model uses a hard cutoff instead of a sigmoid. This returns complementary masks: young_mask + old_mask = 1 everywhere.

Precompute the birth-cloud sigmoid weight.

Call once at Model init; pass result to two_component_dust_fast.

Parameters:

• age_grid (array_like, shape (n_ages,)) – Stellar population ages. [yr]

• t_birth (float) – Birth cloud dispersal age. [yr] Default: 1e7 (10 Myr).

• transition_width (float) – Sigmoid width in dex. [dimensionless] Default: 0.3.

Returns:

Sigmoid weight: 1 for young stars (t < t_birth), 0 for old. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_ages,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The weight is:

\[w(t_{\text{age}}) = \sigma\left(-\frac{\log_{10} t_{\text{age}} - \log_{10} t_{\text{birth}}}{\Delta_{\text{trans}}}\right)\]

where \(\sigma(x) = 1/(1 + e^{-x})\) is the logistic sigmoid.

Prevot et al. (1984) SMC extinction law for AGN obscuration.

Analytic SMC extinction curve from the UV to near-infrared, used in AGNfitter for AGN disc reddening. The published Prevot+1984 form gives \(k_{\rm raw}(\lambda) = A(\lambda)/E(B-V)\) with \(R_V = 2.72\); this function returns the V-band-normalised curve \(k(\lambda) = A(\lambda)/A(V) = k_{\rm raw}(\lambda)/k_{\rm raw}(V)\), matching the convention used by cardelli and the rest of the components.dust.attenuation registry (k(V)=1).

Parameters:

wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

Returns:

Extinction curve \(k(\lambda) = A(\lambda)/A(V)\) normalised to k(5500 A) = 1. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

\[k_{\rm raw}(\lambda) = 1.39 \, \lambda_{\mu m}^{-1.2} - 0.38, \qquad k(\lambda) = k_{\rm raw}(\lambda) / k_{\rm raw}(0.55\,\mu m)\]

where \(\lambda_{\mu m}\) is wavelength in micrometres and \(k_{\rm raw}(0.55) \approx 2.468\).

For wavelengths below 62 Å, reddening is ramped to zero using a smooth sigmoid (no hard discontinuity) to suppress extinction in the X-ray regime where dust is ineffective.

Gradient-compatible: yes — enables optimization of extinction parameters.

This is the default attenuation law in DSPS and Zacharegkas+2025 simulations. It combines Calzetti et al. (2000) optical/NIR continuum with Leitherer et al. (2002) UV extension, plus a variable 2175 Å bump and power-law tilt.

Salim, Boquien & Lee (2018) modified Calzetti + L02 with UV bump + slope.

This is the SBL18 model from the dust_attenuation package. Uses Leitherer (2002) for λ < 1500 Å and Calzetti (2000) above. The modification order is: (base × power_law) + bump.

This differs from noll09 which applies: (base + bump) × power_law. The SBL18 order is identical to kriek_conroy, but SBL18 additionally uses L02 in the far-UV.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• dust_bump_strength (float) – Amplitude of 2175 Å UV bump (E_b). [dimensionless] Default: 0.0 (no bump).

• dust_bump_gamma (float) – FWHM of UV bump. [μm] Default: 0.035.

Returns:

Attenuation curve k(λ) = k’(λ) / R_V with R_V = 4.05. [dimensionless]

Return type:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The attenuation is:

tengri.components.dust.attenuation.single_component_dust(wavelength: Array, tau_v: float, law: str = 'power_law', f_obscuration: float = 0.0, **law_params) → Array

Single-component (uniform foreground screen) dust attenuation.

Applies a single attenuation curve at uniform optical depth to all stellar ages. Age-independent, enabling factorization out of stellar population integration. Simpler but less realistic than two-component models; useful for low-precision fits or high-redshift galaxies where birth-cloud/ISM distinction is unresolved.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• tau_v (float) – V-band optical depth at 5500 Å. [dimensionless]

• law (str, optional) – Attenuation curve name, resolved from DUST_LAWS registry. Default: “power_law”.

• f_obscuration (float, optional) – Unattenuated sightline fraction in clumpy geometry (Lower 2022). [dimensionless, in [0, 1]] Default: 0.0 (uniform foreground screen).

• **law_params – Keyword arguments passed to the attenuation curve function (e.g., n_slope, dust_bump_strength, dust_delta, dust_Rv).

Returns:

Multiplicative transmission T(λ) ∈ [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere.

The transmission is:

\[T(\lambda) = f_{\rm obs} + (1 - f_{\rm obs}) \cdot \exp[-\tau_V \, k(\lambda)]\]

where \(k(\lambda)\) is the normalized attenuation curve with \(k(5500 \, \text{\AA}) = 1\), \(\tau_V\) is the V-band optical depth, and \(f_{\rm obs}\) is the fraction of unattenuated sightlines (Lower 2022; default 0 = full screen).

Age independence: Unlike two-component models, there is no age-dependence, so this transmission can be factored out of the stellar population age integration, enabling faster computation.

Geometry: When \(f_{\rm obs} = 0\), this recovers the standard Beer-Lambert foreground screen. When \(f_{\rm obs} > 0\), it models a clumpy geometry where a fraction of photons are unattenuated (Lower 2022).

tengri.components.dust.attenuation.single_component_dust_fast(wavelengths: Array, n_ages: int, tau_v: float, law: str = 'power_law', f_obscuration: float = 0.0, **law_params) → Array

Single-component dust attenuation broadcast to (n_ages, n_wave).

Computes exp() on the 1-D wavelength grid only, then broadcasts to (n_ages, n_wave) via jnp.broadcast_to (zero-copy in XLA). This is the production path used by the SED pipeline.

Parameters:

• wavelengths (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Evaluation wavelengths (rest-frame). [Å]

• n_ages (int) – Number of SSP age bins (for output shape). [dimensionless]

• tau_v (float) – V-band optical depth. [dimensionless]

• f_obscuration (float) – Fraction of unattenuated sightlines. [dimensionless, in [0, 1]] Default: 0.0 (Lower 2022).

• **law_params – Passed to curve function.

Returns:

Multiplicative transmission factor in [0, 1]. [dimensionless] All age rows are identical (age-independent attenuation).

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_ages, n_wave)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere.

Memory efficiency: Using jnp.broadcast_to avoids materializing the full (n_ages, n_wave) grid in memory; the result is a zero-copy view.

TEA attenuation curve (Haskell+2024, NIHAO-SKIRT).

Three-parameter empirical attenuation with physically motivated bump-slope correlation from radiative transfer simulations. The functional form is identical to Kriek & Conroy (2013), but E_b is derived from delta via a tight relation calibrated on NIHAO-SKIRT.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• dust_delta (float) – Power-law slope modification. [dimensionless] Default: -0.2. Steeper (more negative) = weaker bump.

• dust_tea_scatter (float) – Scatter in E_b around the median relation. [dex] Default: 0.0 (median).

Returns:

Attenuation curve k(λ), normalized to k(5500 Å) = 1. [dimensionless]

Return type:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The bump amplitude is derived from the slope via:

\[E_b = 2.5 \times \exp(3.5 \times \delta) \times 10^{\text{scatter}}\]

then uses Kriek & Conroy (2013) functional form with the derived E_b.

Two-component dust attenuation following Charlot & Fall (2000) with smooth age transition.

Separates dust into birth-cloud (young stars) and diffuse ISM (all stars) components with independent optical depths and attenuation curves. Transition between components uses a smooth sigmoid in log-age, enabling automatic differentiation.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• age_grid (array_like, shape (n_ages,)) – Stellar population ages. [yr]

• tau_v1 (float) – Birth-cloud V-band optical depth (at 5500 Å). [dimensionless] Note: tengri applies tau_bc internally but exposes tau_v1 after normalizing by attenuation curve slope. See docs/known_bugs.md (CROSSVAL-01) for cross-code comparison.

• tau_v2 (float) – Diffuse ISM V-band optical depth. [dimensionless]

• law_bc (str, optional) – Attenuation curve name for birth cloud. Default: “power_law”. Resolved from DUST_LAWS registry.

• law_diff (str, optional) – Attenuation curve name for diffuse ISM. Default: “power_law”.

• f_obscuration (float, optional) – Fraction of unattenuated sightlines in clumpy geometry (Lower 2022). [dimensionless, in [0, 1]] Default: 0.0 (uniform screen).

• t_birth (float, optional) – Birth-cloud dispersal age (sigmoid center). [yr] Default: 1e7 (10 Myr).

• transition_width (float, optional) – Sigmoid transition width in dex. [dimensionless] Default: 0.3 (~5-20 Myr range).

• **law_params – Keyword arguments passed to attenuation curve functions (e.g., n_slope, dust_bump_strength, dust_delta, dust_Rv).

Returns:

Multiplicative transmission factor T(λ, t_age), where T ∈ [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_ages, n_wave)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives and safe for jax.jit.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere; smooth sigmoid age transition preserves gradients through the birth-cloud boundary.

The total optical depth is:

\[\tau(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = w(t_{\text{age}}) \cdot \tau_{{\rm V,BC}} \cdot k_{\rm BC}(\lambda) + \tau_{{\rm V,ISM}} \cdot k_{\rm ISM}(\lambda)\]

where \(w(t_{\text{age}})\) is the sigmoid weight:

\[w(t_{\text{age}}) = \sigma\left(-\frac{\log_{10} t_{\text{age}} - \log_{10} t_{\text{birth}}}{\Delta_{\text{trans}}}\right)\]

and \(\sigma(x) = 1/(1 + e^{-x})\) is the logistic sigmoid. The transmission is then:

\[T(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = f_{\rm obs} + (1 - f_{\rm obs}) \cdot \exp[-\tau(\lambda, t_{\text{age}})]\]

where \(f_{\rm obs}\) is the unattenuated sightline fraction.

Upstream: Implements the Charlot & Fall (2000) two-component framework [1]_ with sigmoid age transition following tengri’s differentiable design. Birth-cloud + diffuse ISM separation enables realistic modeling of age-dependent dust geometry in galaxies.

Fast dust attenuation using precomputed age weights.

Avoids recomputing the birth-cloud age sigmoid every call. Used by both the fused kernel (at effective wavelengths) and the exact path (at the full wavelength grid).

The output dtype follows the input wavelengths dtype, enabling mixed-precision: pass float32 arrays to halve memory traffic on the (n_ages, n_wave) intermediates (~1.6x speedup on CPU).

Parameters:

Optimized two-component dust attenuation with factorized age-independent term.

Exploits the exponential factorization exp(a + b) = exp(a) · exp(b) to separate the diffuse ISM component from the age-dependent outer product. The diffuse exponentiation operates on (n_wave,) instead of (n_ages, n_wave), saving one full-grid exponential. Accepts pre-resolved law functions to avoid dict lookups in hot code.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• dust_age_weights (array_like, shape (n_ages,)) – Pre-computed sigmoid birth-cloud weights from precompute_dust_age_weights. Computed once at Model init and cached.

• tau_v1 (float) – Birth-cloud V-band optical depth. [dimensionless]

• tau_v2 (float) – Diffuse ISM V-band optical depth. [dimensionless]

• law_bc_fn (Callable) – Pre-resolved birth-cloud attenuation function (e.g., resolve_dust_law("calzetti")).

• law_diff_fn (Callable) – Pre-resolved diffuse ISM attenuation function.

• f_obscuration (float, optional) – Unattenuated sightline fraction. [dimensionless, in [0, 1]] Default: 0.0.

• **law_params – Keyword arguments passed to both law functions.

Returns:

Multiplicative transmission T(λ, t_age) ∈ [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_ages, n_wave)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere.

Performance: Reduces memory traffic by ~40% on (n_ages, n_wave) grids relative to two_component_dust because the diffuse exponential is computed on (n_wave,) and broadcast rather than materialized as (n_ages, n_wave). Significant speedup on CPU; moderate benefit on GPU (memory bandwidth more abundant).

The transmission factorizes as:

\[T(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = T_{\rm BC}(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) \cdot T_{\rm ISM}(\lambda)\]

where

\[T_{\rm BC}(\lambda, t_{\text{age}}) = f_{\rm obs} + (1 - f_{\rm obs}) \, \exp[-w(t_{\text{age}}) \, \tau_{\rm V,BC} \, k_{\rm BC}(\lambda)]\]

\[T_{\rm ISM}(\lambda) = \exp[-\tau_{\rm V,ISM} \, k_{\rm ISM}(\lambda)]\]

The ISM component is computed once on (n_wave,) and then broadcast with the age-dependent birth-cloud term, avoiding the full (n_ages, n_wave) grid in intermediate storage.

tengri.components.dust.attenuation.wg00_cloudy(wavelength: Array, tau_v: float, law: str = 'cardelli', **law_params) → Array

Witt & Gordon (2000) CLOUDY dust geometry — homogeneous dust-star mix.

Stars and dust are uniformly mixed throughout a slab of total V-band optical depth. The analytic solution integrates radiative transfer, producing a wavelength-dependent transmission that is greyer (less wavelength-dependent) than a foreground screen. Realistic for galaxies with well-mixed ISM (e.g., starburst regions).

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• tau_v (float) – Total V-band optical depth through the slab. [dimensionless]

• law (str, optional) – Underlying attenuation curve name, from DUST_LAWS registry. Default: “cardelli” (MW).

• **law_params – Keyword arguments passed to the attenuation curve function (e.g., dust_Rv).

Returns:

Transmission T(λ) ∈ [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives, with numerically stable Taylor expansion for small optical depth.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere via smooth blending between exact and Taylor regimes.

The transmission for a homogeneous slab is:

\[T(\lambda) = \frac{1 - \exp[-\tau_V \, k(\lambda)]}{\tau_V \, k(\lambda)}\]

where \(k(\lambda)\) is the normalized attenuation curve. This follows the solution of radiative transfer in a uniform dust-star slab (Natta & Panagia 1984, Section 3.1; Calzetti et al. 1994).

Limiting behaviour: At low optical depth (\(\tau_V k \ll 1\)), \(T \to 1\) (transparent). At high optical depth, \(T \approx 1/(\tau_V k)\), producing a greyer (less wavelength-dependent) effective attenuation than the foreground screen because stars near the observer-facing side suffer less extinction.

Numerical stability: Uses a Taylor expansion (correct to order \(\tau^3\)) for \(\tau_V k < 10^{-4}\) to avoid division-by-zero, preserving gradients throughout.

Approximation: The analytic solution assumes pure absorption (zero scattering). Witt & Gordon (2000) Monte Carlo simulations including scattering find the effective attenuation is slightly greyer still. The analytic form captures the dominant geometric effect and is widely used in SED fitting codes (e.g., Synthesizer, CIGALE).

Witt & Gordon (2000) DUSTY geometry — clumpy two-phase medium.

The ISM is modelled as n_clumps identical clumps, each with optical depth tau_clump = tau_V / n_clumps, distributed along random sightlines (Natta & Panagia 1984; Hobson & Padman 1993). The probability of a photon traversing N clumps follows a Poisson distribution, giving the mean transmission.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid. [Å]

• tau_v (float) – Total V-band optical depth (= n_clumps × tau_clump). [dimensionless]

• law (str) – Underlying extinction curve name. Default: “cardelli” (MW).

• n_clumps (float) – Mean number of clumps along a sightline. [dimensionless] Default: 10.0. Higher values approach the homogeneous limit. Typical range: 1–40.

• **law_params – Passed to the extinction curve function (e.g., dust_Rv).

Returns:

Transmission T(λ) in [0, 1]. [dimensionless]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable everywhere.

The transmission is:

\[T(\lambda) = \exp[-n_{\rm clumps} (1 - \exp[-\tau_{\rm clump} \, k(\lambda)])]\]

where \(\tau_{\rm clump} = \tau_V / n_{\rm clumps}\).

This produces the greyest (least wavelength-dependent) effective attenuation of the three WG00 geometries because photons preferentially escape through low-column channels between clumps.

Limiting behaviour: - \(n_{\rm clumps} \to \infty\) (fixed \(\tau_V\)): recovers the homogeneous slab. - \(n_{\rm clumps} = 1\): single clump with Poisson averaging. - \(\tau_V = 0\): T = 1 (transparent), regardless of n_clumps.

Dust Emission

Energy-balanced IR dust emission models.

Dust emission models for tengri.

This module implements IR re-emission of UV/optical light absorbed by dust. All models are pure JAX (JIT-compatible, fully differentiable) and follow the energy-balance constraint: total IR luminosity equals total absorbed luminosity from the attenuation step.

Template Auto-Loading

The "draine_li2007", "dale2014", "draine_li2014", "astrodust", "bosa", and "themis" models auto-load tabulated templates from the data/ directory on first use. If templates are not found, they fall back to analytic approximations with a warning. The analytic fallbacks are crude (single-Gaussian PAH, hand-tuned temperatures) and should NOT be used for science.

Energy Balance

The normalization for every model is set by:

L_dust_emission = L_dust_absorbed
                = integral[(1 - transmission) * L_stellar_intrinsic * dlambda]

This is computed from the attenuation step and passed to each model as L_absorbed (scalar, in Lsun).

Casey (2012) modified blackbody + mid-IR power law dust emission.

Combines a modified blackbody (FIR peak from cold/warm dust) with a mid-IR power law (Wien-side excess from warm dust continuum), joined by a smooth sigmoid transition function.

When optically_thin=True, the mid-IR power-law component is zeroed, leaving only the modified blackbody. This variant is useful for cold dust-dominated galaxies where the power law is unphysical.

Note

The mid-IR power-law contribution is only significant for warm/hot dust (T ≳ 60 K). For typical cold ISM dust (T = 25–60 K) the Wien cutoff exp(-hν/kT) kills the power-law component at 8–40 μm (x ≈ 10–51 at those wavelengths), so the model produces less 8–40 μm flux than a pure MBB normalised to the same L_absorbed. The 8–40 μm advantage described in Casey (2012) applies to warmer starburst / AGN-heated dust components where T ≳ 80–100 K.

The implemented model uses the following convention (see code comments):

S(ν) = N_pl * ν^α_mid * f(λ)         [mid-IR power law, f→1 at short λ]
     + N_bb * ν^(3+β) / (exp(hν/kT) - 1) * (1 - f(λ))   [FIR MBB, 1-f→1 at long λ]

where the transition function (f→1 selects power law at short λ) is:

f(λ) = 1 / (1 + (λ / λ_0)^2)

Note: Casey (2012, MNRAS 425 3094) Eq. 2 defines the carrier function differently; the code’s convention has f→1 at short λ (mid-IR) and 1-f→1 at long λ (FIR). The shapes produced are equivalent; only the labelling of f vs (1-f) differs.

The empirical turnover wavelength is (Eq. 3, with errata):

λ_0 = b1 + b2 * T[μm]

with b1 = 26.68 μm, b2 = 6.246e-3 μm/K.

Both components are normalized so that the total frequency integral equals L_absorbed.

When redshift > 0, the dust temperature is corrected for CMB heating (da Cunha et al. 2013) and the observed flux is reduced by the CMB contrast factor.

Parameters:

• wavelength_aa (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid in Angstrom (sorted ascending). [Å]

• dust_alpha_mir (float) – Mid-IR power-law slope. Typical range: 1.5–2.5. [dimensionless]

• optically_thin (bool) – If True, zero the mid-IR power-law component, leaving only the modified blackbody. Default: False. [dimensionless]

• redshift (float) – Source redshift. When > 0, CMB heating correction is applied. Default 0 (no correction). [dimensionless]

Flux suppression factor from observing dust against the CMB.

The observed flux is reduced because the galaxy’s dust emission is measured against the CMB background (da Cunha et al. 2013).

Optically-thin modified blackbody dust emission.

The unnormalized spectrum is:

S_nu ~ nu^beta * B_nu(T_dust)

which is then normalized so that the frequency integral equals L_absorbed.

When redshift > 0, the dust temperature is corrected for CMB heating (da Cunha et al. 2013) and the observed flux is reduced by the CMB contrast factor.

Parameters:

• wavelength_aa (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid in Angstrom (sorted ascending). [Å]

• L_absorbed (float) – Total absorbed luminosity. Unit-agnostic: the output L_nu will be in the same units per Hz (e.g. pass erg/s → get erg/s/Hz; pass Lsun → get Lsun/Hz). In sed_pipeline.py the pipeline passes erg/s (from a frequency-integrated trapezoid) and receives erg/s/Hz.

• dust_T (float) – Dust temperature in Kelvin. Typical range: 20–60 K. [K]

• dust_beta_ir (float) – Emissivity index. Typical range: 1.5–2.0. [dimensionless]

• redshift (float) – Source redshift. When > 0, CMB heating correction is applied. Default 0 (no correction). [dimensionless]

Smith et al. (2007) PAH Drude profiles dust emission.

A sum of 18 PAH Drude profiles (normalized to Smith+2007 SINGS median strengths). Runtime evaluation prefers the precomputed lookup from dust_analytic_precompute; this function provides a direct full-wavelength evaluation used when precompute is unavailable.

Parameters:

• wavelength_aa (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid in Angstrom (sorted ascending). [Å]

• L_absorbed (float) – Total absorbed luminosity. [Lsun or erg/s, as passed]

• redshift (float) – Source redshift (unused for this model). [dimensionless]

Returns:

Dust emission L_nu in [L_absorbed units] / Hz.

Return type:

array, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — computed via triweight interpolation in precompute mode; this function is a fallback stub.

Gradient-safe: yes — inherited from precompute lookup.

The PAH template is a pure shape (no free axes). Runtime evaluation uses the precomputed lookup from dust_analytic_precompute and skips the full-wavelength evaluation in the hybrid kernel.

Returns:

Planck brightness. [erg s⁻¹ cm⁻² Hz⁻¹ sr⁻¹]

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The Planck function is:

\[B_\nu(T) = \frac{2 h \nu^3}{c^2} \frac{1}{\exp(h\nu / k_B T) - 1}\]

tengri.components.dust.emission.preload_emission_model(name: str) → Callable

Force lazy template loading outside any JAX JIT scope.

Template-based emission models use lazy loaders that fire on first call. If the first call happens inside a @jax.jit scope, jnp.array() inside the loader creates DynamicJaxprTracer objects that escape into closures, causing UnexpectedTracerError on subsequent non-JIT calls.

Call this function at factory time (outside JIT) so templates are loaded into DUST_EMISSION_MODELS[name] as regular DeviceArray objects. Dynamic JAX indexing inside JIT then works correctly.

Parameters:

name (str) – Registry name (e.g. "draine_li2007").

Returns:

The loaded (real) emission function — NOT a lazy wrapper.

Return type:

Callable

Notes

JIT-compatible: no — template loading happens at factory time.

Safe to call at SEDModel.__init__ time to prevent tracer leaks when models are first called inside a @jax.jit scope.

tengri.components.dust.emission.register_emission_model(name: str) → Callable

Decorator factory that registers a dust emission model under a name.

Parameters:

name (str) – Registry key (e.g. "dale2014", "draine_li2007").

Returns:

Decorator that registers the decorated function and returns it unchanged.

Return type:

Callable

Notes

JIT-compatible: no — registration happens at factory time before JIT.

Decorated functions must implement the DustEmissionTemplate protocol: accept a wavelength array, absorbed luminosity, and keyword arguments, returning an emission SED L_ν [erg/s/Hz].

tengri.components.dust.emission.resolve_emission_model(name: str) → Callable

Get a registered emission model by name.

Parameters:

name (str) – Model name (e.g. "modified_blackbody").

Returns:

The model function with signature (wavelength, L_absorbed, **params) -> L_nu_emission.

Return type:

Callable

Raises:

ValueError – If name is not in the registry.

Notes

JIT-compatible: no — registry lookup happens at factory time.

The returned function matches the DustEmissionTemplate protocol and can be called with wavelengths, absorbed luminosity, and model-specific parameters.

Schreiber et al. (2016) 2-parameter dust emission model.

Mixes dust continuum and PAH emission by a fractional parameter. The dust continuum is a modified blackbody (modified_blackbody with beta=1.5). The PAH component is approximated as a sum of Drude profiles at standard wavelengths.

Parameters:

• L_absorbed (float) – Total absorbed luminosity. Unit-agnostic: the output L_nu will be in the same units per Hz.

• dust_T (float) – Dust continuum temperature in Kelvin. Typical range: 15–60 K. Default: 30.0.

• dust_f_pah (float) – Fractional contribution from PAH emission in [0, 1]. Default: 0.05.

• redshift (float) – Source redshift. When > 0, CMB heating correction is applied. Default: 0.

Returns:

Dust emission L_nu in [L_absorbed units] / Hz.

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations are jnp primitives.

The model composition is:

\[L_\nu = (1 - f_{\rm PAH}) L_\nu^{\rm continuum} + f_{\rm PAH} L_\nu^{\rm PAH}\]

where:

• Dust continuum: modified blackbody with temperature T_dust and emissivity index β = 1.5, using the same normalization as modified_blackbody.

• PAH: sum of Drude profiles at standard rest wavelengths (3.3, 6.2, 7.7, 8.6, 11.3, 12.7 μm) with relative strengths from Smith et al. (2007).

The total integral over frequency is normalized to L_absorbed.

AGN

Accretion disc, torus, BLR, NLR, and unified AGN models.

Accretion disc models for AGN emission.

Four models are provided:

1. Simple power-law + UV cutoff — minimal AGN disc with 3 parameters.

2. Multi-color disc (Shakura-Sunyaev) — physically-motivated standard thin disc following Kubota & Done (2018), simplified to the key parameters. Implements the outer standard disc zone only.

3. Kubota & Done 3-zone disc — full K&D (2018) model with outer standard disc, warm Comptonization (soft X-ray excess), and hot corona (hard X-ray power law). Three radially-stratified zones with self-consistent radii.

4. ADAF + truncated disc — for low-luminosity AGN (L/L_Edd < 0.01). The inner disc transitions to an advection-dominated accretion flow (optically thin, radiatively inefficient). Based on Mahadevan (1997) and Nemmen+2014.

All return specific luminosity L_nu in erg/s/Hz as a function of rest-frame wavelength. All functions are pure JAX and JIT-compilable.

Physical constants are in CGS. Wavelength inputs are in Angstrom.

Advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF) plus truncated disc.

Model a low-luminosity AGN in the sub-Eddington regime where the inner accretion flow transitions from a geometrically thin, optically thick disc to an advection-dominated accretion flow (ADAF). In an ADAF, most of the released gravitational energy is advected into the black hole rather than radiated away, making the flow radiatively inefficient. The outer disc remains as a Shakura-Sunyaev disc truncated at a transition radius r_tr.

The total spectrum is the sum of four components:

1. ADAF synchrotron (radio to millimeter): relativistic electrons gyrating in a turbulent magnetic field.

2. ADAF bremsstrahlung (X-ray): thermal bremsstrahlung from collisions in the hot electron-ion plasma (T_e ~ 10^9–10^11 K).

3. ADAF inverse Compton (hard X-ray): upscattering of bremsstrahlung photons by relativistic electrons.

4. Truncated outer disc (UV/optical): Shakura-Sunyaev multi-color disc from r_tr outward.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Rest-frame wavelength grid. [Angstrom]

• agn_log_lbol (float) – Total AGN bolometric luminosity. [log10(L_sun)]

• agn_frac (float, optional) – Fraction of bolometric luminosity emitted by this component. Default: 0.1. [dimensionless, 0–1]

• agn_log_mbh (float, optional) – Black hole mass. Scales the synchrotron peak frequency and gravitational radius. Default: 8.0. [log10(M_sun)]

• agn_log_ledd (float, optional) – Eddington ratio. This model is designed for sub-Eddington accretion (log(L/L_Edd) < -2). Default: -3.0. [log10(L / L_Edd)]

• agn_r_tr (float, optional) – Truncation radius in units of the gravitational radius R_g = GM/c^2. This marks the transition between the ADAF (r < r_tr) and the thin disc (r > r_tr). Typical range: 10–1000 R_g. Default: 100.0. [dimensionless, ≥ 6]

• agn_adaf_beta (float, optional) – Ratio of gas pressure to total pressure in the ADAF. Controls the magnetic field strength and synchrotron emission. Range: [0, 1]. Default: 0.5. [dimensionless]

• agn_adaf_delta (float, optional) – Fraction of viscously dissipated energy that directly heats electrons (as opposed to protons). Controls the electron temperature. Lower δ → hotter electrons. Range: [0, 1]. Default: 0.01. [dimensionless]

• agn_cos_inc (float, optional) – Cosine of the inclination angle (outer disc view angle). Default: 0.5 (60°). [dimensionless, 0.01–1.0]

• n_radii (int, optional) – Number of radial integration points for the outer disc component. Default: 50.

Returns:

Spectral luminosity density L_ν. [erg/s/Hz]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives.

Radiative efficiency (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 49): In an ADAF, the radiated luminosity scales as:

\[L_{\rm rad} \approx 0.1 \, \dot{m}^2 \, L_{\rm Edd}\]

where \(\dot{m} = L / L_{\rm Edd}\) is the dimensionless accretion rate. For sub-Eddington rates (\(\dot{m} \lesssim 0.1\)), the radiated luminosity is highly suppressed. The ADAF component luminosity is estimated from the fractional contribution determined by the truncation radius.

ADAF electron temperature (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 40): The electron temperature is set by the energy-balance equation:

\[T_e = 1.1 \times 10^9 \, \mathrm{K} \cdot \left(\frac{\delta}{\dot{m}}\right)^{1/7}\]

where \(\delta\) is the electron heating fraction and \(\dot{m}\) is the dimensionless accretion rate. The exponent 1/7 (not 1/2) comes from the coupled electron-proton heating equations. Clipped to [10^8, 5×10^11] K for physical plausibility.

Synchrotron component (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 21, 25): Electrons in the turbulent ADAF magnetic field produce synchrotron emission with a characteristic peak frequency:

\[\nu_{\rm peak} \approx 10^{12} \, \mathrm{Hz} \cdot \left(\frac{M_{\rm BH}}{10^8 \, M_\odot}\right)^{-1/2} \dot{m}^{1/2}\]

Below the self-absorption frequency \(\nu_{\rm sa} \approx \nu_{\rm peak}/3\), the spectrum is optically thick (Rayleigh-Jeans: \(\propto \nu^2\)). Above \(\nu_{\rm sa}\), it is optically thin with spectral index 2/5: \(\propto \nu^{2/5}\) (not 1/3). The two regimes join continuously at \(\nu_{\rm sa}\).

Bremsstrahlung (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 3): Thermal bremsstrahlung from the hot electron-ion plasma provides a flat spectrum (\(\propto \nu^0\)) below the exponential cutoff at \(k_B T_e / h\).

Inverse Compton (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 34, 35): Thomson (optically thin) scattering of bremsstrahlung photons by relativistic electrons. The photon index is:

\[\alpha_c = -\frac{\ln(\tau_{\rm es})}{\ln(A)}\]

where \(\tau_{\rm es}\) is the electron scattering optical depth and \(A \approx 4 \Theta\) with \(\Theta = k_B T_e / m_e c^2\). For typical ADAF parameters (\(T_e \sim 10^{10}\) K, \(\tau_{\rm es} \sim 1\)), this yields \(\alpha_c \sim 0.7–1.0\).

Component weights (Mahadevan 1997, Eq. 26, 29, 35): The relative contributions of synchrotron, bremsstrahlung, and inverse Compton are determined by the magnetic field strength (via \(\beta\) = gas pressure / total pressure), the optical depth, and the particle distribution. The weights are not arbitrary: synchrotron dominates at low frequencies, bremsstrahlung at intermediate frequencies, and inverse Compton at high frequencies. The beta parameter controls the magnetic energy density.

Truncated outer disc: The standard Shakura-Sunyaev multi-color disc (see multicolor_disc()) contributes from the truncation radius r_tr outward. This dominates the UV/optical and provides the warm photons that seed inverse Compton scattering.

Known limitations:

• This implementation is based on Mahadevan (1997) analytic prescriptions and does not solve the full magnetohydrodynamic ADAF equations.

• The inverse Compton calculation uses a simplified approximation; full solutions would require iterative energy balance with the photon field.

• The model has not been extensively validated against 3D ADAF simulations or a comprehensive sample of observed low-luminosity AGN. Use with caution in quantitative inference.

Self-consistent hard X-ray photon index (Beloborodov 1999).

Derives the spectral index of the hot corona from the ratio of dissipated luminosity to seed photon luminosity.

Kubota & Done (2018, MNRAS 480 1247) Eq. 6 rewrites the Beloborodov (1999, ApJ 510 L123) Compton-amplification result as:

Gamma_hot = (7/3) * (L_diss / L_seed)^{-0.1}

The exponent -0.1 is the K&D 2018 formulation of Beloborodov (1999).

Parameters:

• l_diss_hot (float) – Luminosity dissipated in the hot corona [any units].

• l_seed (float) – Soft photon luminosity intercepted by the corona [same units].

Returns:

Hard X-ray photon index, clipped to [1.4, 3.0].

Return type:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses only jnp primitives.

This implementation follows Kubota & Done (2018, MNRAS 480 1247, Eq. 6), which rewrites the Beloborodov (1999) Compton-amplification result as a power law in the luminosity ratio. The exponent -0.1 encodes the energy-balance relation between the dissipated power in the corona and the seed photon luminosity intercepted from the disc. Output is clipped to [1.4, 3.0] to match the physical range of typical AGN.

Return type:

float

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives.

The 2500 Å point is a canonical AGN diagnostic wavelength, used to compute the optical-to-X-ray spectral index (alpha_ox) and as a benchmark for intrinsic AGN continuum comparisons. Linear interpolation in wavelength space is sufficient for the optical/UV continuum variability timescales. The wavelength array need not be pre-sorted; this function sorts internally before interpolation.

tengri.components.agn.disc.create_relagn_disc_from_grid(grid_path: str) → Callable

Return a JIT-compatible RELAGN disc SED function from a precomputed grid.

The grid was built with the real RELAGN Python class (Hagen & Done 2023) using KYCONV (Dovciak, Karas & Yaqoob 2004) per-annulus Kerr ray-tracing. It stores absolute L_ν (erg/s/Hz) at cos_inc = 0.5; the inclination correction is applied analytically as 2·cos_inc (valid for the non-relativistic outer disc; approximate for the GR inner disc).

Parameters:

grid_path (str) – Path to data/relagn_disc_grid.h5.

Returns:

Function with signature:

fn(wavelength, agn_log_mbh, agn_log_mdot, agn_astar,
   agn_cos_inc, **kwargs) -> L_nu [erg s^-1 Hz^-1]

Return type:

callable

Raises:

FileNotFoundError – If grid_path does not exist.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — the returned function is pure JAX. Grid loading is cached via @functools.cache.

Gradient-safe: yes — triweight interpolation is C²-continuous.

Inclination: grid stored at cos_inc = 0.5; scaled by 2·cos_inc. This is exact for r > 1000 r_g (non-relativistic regime) and approximate for the GR inner disc where KYCONV applies full Kerr ray-tracing.

Grid axes: log_mbh ∈ [7, 10], log_mdot ∈ [−1.5, 0.3], astar ∈ [0, 0.998] (prograde only; KYCONV rejects retrograde spins).

Kubota & Done (2018) three-zone accretion disc with self-consistent corona.

Model a physically stratified AGN accretion disc as three radially distinct zones, each with different physics and electron temperatures. This is the reference model for intermediate to high accretion rates and is used in tengri’s default AGN configuration.

The three zones share a single Novikov-Thorne temperature profile but have different radiation mechanisms:

1. Outer standard disc (r > R_warm): Optically thick, geometrically thin. Temperature decreases with radius (∝ r^{-3/4}). Radiates as multi-color blackbody. Dominates the optical/UV “big blue bump.”

2. Warm Comptonization zone (R_hot < r < R_warm): Optically thick, warm electrons (kT_e ~ 0.2 keV, τ ~ 10-20). Inverse Compton-scattered disc photons plus thermal radiation. Produces the soft X-ray excess. Computed via precomputed nthcomp Kompaneets templates (when available) or a simplified modified-blackbody proxy.

3. Hot corona (R_ISCO < r < R_hot): Optically thin, hot electrons (kT_e ~ 100 keV, τ ~ 1). Inverse Compton scatters disc seed photons to produce hard X-ray power-law spectrum with exponential cutoff.

Zone boundaries are determined self-consistently:

• R_hot: Solved via bisection from the energy-balance constraint that the dissipated power in the corona equals f_hard × L_Edd. Uses the exact analytic Novikov-Thorne integral rather than approximations.

• R_warm: Parameterized as a multiple of R_hot (default 2, per K&D).

• R_out: Set to the Laor & Netzer (1989) self-gravity (Toomre) radius, beyond which the disc becomes unstable and fragments.

The hard X-ray photon index Γ_hot is derived self-consistently from the Beloborodov (1999) energy-balance relation if requested; otherwise uses the input value.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array_like, shape (n_wave,)) – Rest-frame wavelength grid. [Angstrom]

• agn_log_lbol (float) – Total AGN bolometric luminosity (all three zones). [log10(L_sun)]

• agn_frac (float, optional) – Fraction of bolometric luminosity emitted by the disc system (all zones). Default: 1.0. [dimensionless, 0–1]

• agn_log_mbh (float, optional) – Black hole mass. Determines the Eddington luminosity and temperature scaling. Default: 8.0. [log10(M_sun)]

• agn_log_ledd (float, optional) – Eddington ratio. Controls the inner temperature, radiative efficiency, and zone locations. Typical range: -3 to 0. Default: -1.0. [log10(L / L_Edd)]

• agn_a_spin (float, optional) – Dimensionless black hole spin parameter (Kerr, prograde). Range: [0, 0.998]. Higher spin → smaller R_ISCO, higher η. Default: 0.0 (Schwarzschild). [dimensionless]

• agn_cos_inc (float, optional) – Cosine of the inclination angle between the disc normal and the line of sight. Range: [0.01, 1.0]. Used to compute the projected disc area. Default: 0.5 (60°). [dimensionless]

• agn_f_hard (float, optional) – Fraction of Eddington luminosity dissipated in the hot corona. Controls the corona zone extent R_hot. Typical range: 0.01–0.1. Default: 0.02. [dimensionless, 0–0.5]

• agn_gamma_warm (float, optional) – Photon index of the warm Comptonization zone (nthcomp). Range: ~1.5–3.5. Default: 2.5. [dimensionless]

• agn_kt_warm (float, optional) – Electron temperature in the warm Comptonization zone. Default: 0.2. [keV]

• agn_gamma_hard (float, optional) – Photon index of the hard X-ray power law (hot corona). Typical range: 1.5–2.5. Default: 1.8. Ignored if agn_self_consistent_gamma=True. [dimensionless]

• agn_kt_hot (float, optional) – Electron temperature in the hot corona. Default: 100.0. [keV]

• agn_r_warm_ratio (float, optional) – Radius ratio R_warm / R_hot. Controls the warm zone extent. Default: 2.0 (per K&D 2018). [dimensionless, ≥ 1.1]

• n_radii (int, optional) – Number of radial integration points per zone. Default: 50. Higher values increase accuracy at computational cost.

• agn_self_consistent_gamma (bool, optional) – If True, compute agn_gamma_hard self-consistently from the Beloborodov (1999) energy-balance relation: Γ = 7/3 × (L_diss / L_seed)^{-0.1} If False, use the input agn_gamma_hard value. Default: False.

Returns:

Spectral luminosity density L_ν. [erg/s/Hz]

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives and jax.vmap.

Gradient-safe: yes — fully differentiable w.r.t. all parameters, including the bisection-solved R_hot.

Key self-consistent physics:

All three zones share the Novikov-Thorne temperature profile:

\[T(r) = T_{\rm in} \left(\frac{r}{r_{\rm ISCO}}\right)^{-3/4} \left[1 - \sqrt{\frac{r_{\rm ISCO}}{r}}\right]^{1/4}\]

where \(T_{\rm in} = (3 G M M_{\rm dot} / 8\pi \sigma_{\rm SB} r_{\rm ISCO}^3)^{1/4}\), and the inner temperature increases with accretion rate. The radii are ordered as R_ISCO < R_hot < R_warm < R_out.

Zone luminosity computation:

Each zone is divided into annuli at radii {r_i}, each of which contributes L_ν from its local Planck function (outer disc), nthcomp prescription (warm zone), or hot-corona power law (inner zone). All zones are summed and renormalized to conserve total bolometric energy.

Seed photon calculation (K&D 2018 Eq. 3): The hot corona inverse-Compton scatters disc seed photons. The seed photon luminosity is computed from the geometric integral of the warm-zone blackbody flux intercepted by the corona geometry:

\[L_{\rm seed} = 2 \int_{R_{\rm hot}}^{R_{\rm out}} F_{\rm NT}(r) \cdot \frac{\Theta(r)}{\pi} \cdot 2\pi r \, dr\]

where \(\Theta(r) = \theta_0 - \sin(2\theta_0)/2\) and \(\sin\theta_0 = R_{\rm hot}/r\). This drives the self-consistent Γ_hot via Beloborodov.

Precomputed nthcomp templates: For maximum speed and accuracy, the warm Comptonization is computed via interpolation in precomputed nthcomp Kompaneets templates (see scripts/build_nthcomp_templates.py). These templates span (Γ_warm, kT_e) parameter space and return (Γ_warm, kT_e, normalisation)-dependent SED at each radius. If templates are unavailable, a simplified modified-blackbody proxy is used, which has ~5–10% shape error but allows offline computation.

Approximations and accuracy:

The reference QSOSED/RELAGN codes use non-differentiable operations (root solvers, C implementations). Tengri’s JAX reimplementation makes key approximations documented in the code (see docs/dev/design/agn-kd-model.md):

• R_hot: 40-step JAX-compatible bisection (exact to ~10^{-12}).

• Warm zone: precomputed nthcomp templates with (Γ_w, kT_e) interpolation (accuracy: ≲ 2% in flux density).

• Seed photons: K&D Eq. 3 integrated on 100-point log grid (exact).

• Outer radius: Laor & Netzer self-gravity radius (2–4× improvement over fixed 1000 r_ISCO).

Returns:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives and jax.vmap.

The temperature profile follows the Novikov-Thorne (1974) emissivity for a thin, radiatively efficient disc:

\[T(r) = T_{\rm in} \left(\frac{r}{r_{\rm ISCO}}\right)^{-3/4} \left[1 - \sqrt{\frac{r_{\rm ISCO}}{r}}\right]^{1/4}\]

where \(T_{\rm in}\) is the inner temperature determined by the accretion rate and \(r_{\rm ISCO}\) is the innermost stable circular orbit (radius from Bardeen et al. 1972, depends on spin).

The disc luminosity is computed as:

\[L_\nu = \sum_{i=1}^{N_r} B_\nu(T_i) \cdot 2\pi^2 r_i \, dr_i \cdot \cos(i)\]

where \(B_\nu(T)\) is the Planck function, \(r_i\) is the ring radius [cm], \(dr_i\) is the ring width [cm], and \(\cos(i)\) is the projection factor (inclination).

Key physics:

• Radiative efficiency: \(\eta = 1 - \sqrt{1 - 2/(3 r_{\rm ISCO})}\), computed from Novikov-Thorne theory. For Schwarzschild (a=0): η ≈ 0.057; for maximally spinning (a→0.998): η ≈ 0.32.

• Outer radius: Uses the Laor & Netzer (1989) self-gravity (Toomre) radius, beyond which the disc fragments. This is an improvement over fixed approximations (e.g., 1000 r_ISCO) that can err by factors of a few at extreme masses or accretion rates.

• Eddington ratio clamping: The accretion luminosity is capped at \(L_{\rm Edd}\) (i.e., log(L/L_Edd) is clipped to [0, 1] in linear space), reflecting the physical limit of radiatively efficient accretion.

Numerical method: Radii are logarithmically spaced to ensure fine resolution at small radii where the temperature gradient is steep. Integration uses summation; the trapezoidal rule is applied in log-radius space via the spacing \(d\log r = \Delta(\log r)\).

Simple power-law accretion disc with exponential UV cutoff.

A phenomenological single-component AGN disc model that approximates the optical/UV emission as a power law with an exponential cutoff at high frequencies. This is a faster alternative to multi-color disc models when fine spectral details are not required.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives.

The unnormalized spectral shape is:

\[L_\nu^{\rm unnorm} = \nu^\alpha \exp\left(-\frac{h\nu}{k_B T_{\rm max}}\right)\]

where \(\alpha\) is the spectral index, \(h\) is Planck’s constant, \(\nu\) is frequency [Hz], \(k_B\) is Boltzmann’s constant, and \(T_{\rm max}\) is the cutoff temperature [K].

The normalization constant \(C\) is computed numerically by integrating the shape over the wavelength grid via the trapezoidal rule, ensuring that the integral over frequency equals the target luminosity \(L_{\rm bol} \cdot f_{\rm disc}\).

Approximation: This model is a simplified representation of the true accretion disc spectrum, which consists of multiple temperature zones (see multicolor_disc() and kubota_done_disc() for more realistic models). The power-law form breaks down at low frequencies (radio/submm) where the SED transitions to a different regime, and does not capture the soft X-ray excess or hard X-ray corona. Use this model only when computational speed is prioritized over spectral fidelity.

Broad Line Region (BLR) emission model.

The BLR is dense gas close to the black hole producing broad permitted emission lines with FWHM ~ 1000-10000 km/s. The BLR is geometrically compact and lies within the torus, so it is obscured at high inclinations (Type 2 AGN).

This module provides an analytic BLR template using broad Gaussian profiles at the wavelengths of the strongest permitted lines, plus an Fe II pseudo-continuum modeled as a sum of broad Gaussians at key multiplet wavelength groups (Tsuzuki+2006, Kovacevic+2010).

All functions are pure JAX and JIT-compilable.

BLR emission spectrum: broad permitted lines + Fe II pseudo-continuum.

The BLR receives covering_fraction * L_disc and converts a fraction into broad emission lines. When agn_fe2_strength > 0, an Fe II pseudo-continuum is added, scaled relative to H-beta luminosity using the standard R_Fe ratio.

Note: geometric masking by the torus is NOT applied here; it must be applied by the caller.

• l_disc_bol_erg (float) – Bolometric disc luminosity [erg s^-1].

• covering_fraction (float) – BLR covering fraction (0 to 1). Default 0.1.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — uses jnp primitives and jax.vmap.

The broad emission lines are modeled as Gaussian profiles at rest-frame wavelengths (Vanden Berk et al. 2001). Line strengths are calibrated to typical Type 1 AGN composite spectra. The Fe II pseudo-continuum follows the Tsuzuki+2006 / Kovacevic+2010 approach: broad Gaussians at UV and optical multiplet centers, normalized to the standard R_Fe ratio.

Torus geometry: This function returns the “bare” BLR spectrum without geometric masking by the dusty torus. The caller is responsible for applying inclination-dependent torus obscuration if using a torus model.

Narrow Line Region (NLR) emission model.

The NLR is photoionized gas illuminated by the AGN accretion disc. It produces nebular-like emission: a power-law continuum plus forbidden-line emission at key wavelengths.

The NLR emission is isotropic (not masked by the torus) because it extends on kpc scales beyond the torus opening angle.

For computational efficiency this module uses analytic line profiles rather than full CLOUDY grids. Each emission line is a Gaussian with FWHM ~ 500 km/s (narrow lines) placed at the laboratory wavelength.

All functions are pure JAX and JIT-compilable.

Unified AGN SED: combined disc + torus + NLR + BLR emission.

Combines accretion disc and dust torus models into a single AGN SED. The disc emission is partly absorbed by the torus (via covering factor) and re-emitted in the IR.

Architecture overview

The component tree and geometric masking design in this module is inspired by the UnifiedAGN class in the Synthesizer package (Lovell et al. 2025, Open J. Astrophys., arXiv:2508.03888;

Roper et al. 2025, arXiv:2506.15811; https://github.com/synthesizer-project/synthesizer).

Synthesizer’s model defines:

• An accretion disc whose inclination-dependent emission is extracted from precomputed photoionisation grids (CLOUDY-based).

• NLR emission as grid-extracted nebular spectra, not masked by the torus (isotropic: always visible at all inclinations).

• BLR emission as grid-extracted nebular spectra, masked by the torus using a hard binary condition: inclination + theta_torus > 90° → zeroed.

• A torus that reprocesses the isotropic disc emission, scaled by torus_fraction = theta_torus / 90° (geometric fraction of sky covered).

• Optional diffuse dust attenuation layered on top.

Differences in this implementation

tengri adopts the same conceptual decomposition but diverges in several ways for compatibility with gradient-based inference (VI, HMC):

1. Analytic disc models, not grids: disc emission uses the closed-form multicolor/Shakura-Sunyaev or power-law models from disc.py rather than a photoionisation grid. This makes the disc JIT/grad-compatible.

2. Analytic NLR/BLR templates, not grids: NLR and BLR use empirically calibrated Gaussian line templates (Vanden Berk et al. 2001; Groves et al. 2004) rather than CLOUDY-generated photoionisation grids. Grids would require non-differentiable table look-ups over (U, n_H) axes.

3. Smooth sigmoid geometric mask, not a hard binary: Synthesizer zeros the disc/BLR whenever inclination + theta_torus > 90°. tengri replaces this with a smooth sigmoid centred at the critical angle (see _sigmoid_mask). The sigmoid preserves the gradient through the inclination parameter, which would otherwise be zero almost everywhere under the hard mask.

4. Explicit ``agn_torus_frac`` parameter, not derived from theta_torus: Synthesizer internally computes torus_fraction = theta_torus / 90°, coupling the torus covering factor to the opening angle. tengri keeps agn_torus_frac as an independent free parameter. This decoupling is intentional: deriving the covering factor from cos(theta_torus) in the forward pass introduces a gradient discontinuity at theta_torus=0 and at theta_torus=90° (see CLAUDE.md gotcha).

5. Polar dust reddening (SMC law): an optional agn_polar_ebv parameter applies SMC-law extinction to the disc and BLR for Type 1 sightlines. This is absent from Synthesizer’s basic UnifiedAGN but present in the CIGALE skirtor2016 module (Yang et al. 2020, MNRAS, 491, 740).

Pre-registered configurations

• simple: power-law disc + single-temperature torus (3 free params).

• standard: multi-color disc + two-temperature torus (5-6 free params).

• kubota_done: multi-color disc with BH physics + clumpy torus (8+ params).

• unified_nlr_blr: full Synthesizer-inspired model with NLR/BLR + polar dust.

Warning

agn_log_lbol is log10(L_bol / L_sun), not log10(L_bol / [erg/s]). See the convention note below before setting this parameter.

Convention for agn_log_lbol

agn_log_lbol is \(\log_{10}(L_{\rm bol} / L_\odot)\) — the bolometric luminosity expressed in solar luminosities, not erg/s. This matches the internal computation in components/agn/_phys.py (l_bol_erg = 10**agn_log_lbol * L_SUN).

• Typical bright Seyfert: \(L_{\rm bol}\!\sim\!10^{44}\) erg/s \(\Rightarrow\) agn_log_lbol = 10.5.

• Bright quasar: \(L_{\rm bol}\!\sim\!10^{46}\) erg/s \(\Rightarrow\) agn_log_lbol = 12.5.

• Synthesizer’s bolometric_luminosity is in erg/s; convert with agn_log_lbol = log10(L_bol_erg) - log10(L_SUN_erg), i.e. subtract \(\approx 33.58\) from synthesizer’s value.

Defaults of agn_log_lbol=44.0 in the function signatures of this module are inherited from early test fixtures and correspond to \(L_{\rm bol}\!\approx\!4\times 10^{77}\) erg/s — not a physical AGN luminosity. They are kept for backward-compatibility with the existing test suite. Always set this parameter explicitly in production fits; do not rely on the default.

Usage:

from tengri.components.agn.unified import unified_agn, resolve_agn_model

# Use a named configuration. agn_log_lbol = 11 → L_bol ≈ 4e44 erg/s
# (a typical bright Seyfert nucleus).
model_fn = resolve_agn_model("simple")
l_nu = model_fn(wavelength, agn_log_lbol=11.0, agn_frac=0.1, ...)

# Or use the generic combiner directly.
l_nu = unified_agn(wavelength, agn_log_lbol=11.0, disc_model="powerlaw", ...)

Create a Cue-backed NLR emission callable for unified_nlr_blr.

Returns a closure that uses the Cue neural-net emulator (Li et al. 2024 [1]_) to predict NLR emission lines and continuum as a function of ionising spectrum shape and gas properties. The closure matches the standard NLR backend interface expected by unified_nlr_blr().

The Cue weights are closed over as static pytree leaves, so the returned callable is JIT-compatible.

Parameters:

• weights (CueWeights) – Pre-loaded Cue network weights from load_cue_weights().

• gas_logU (float) – log10(ionization parameter U). Default -2.0.

• gas_logZ (float) – log10(Z/Zsun) of the NLR gas. Default 0.0 (solar).

• gas_log_nH (float) – log10(hydrogen number density [cm^-3]). Default 2.0.

• gas_xi_d (float) – Dust-to-metal ratio. Default 0.3.

• ionspec_index1..4 (float) – Power-law indices of the ionising spectrum piecewise approximation. Defaults correspond to a typical Seyfert 1 AGN spectrum.

• ionspec_logLratio1..3 (float) – log10(L) ratios between power-law segments. Default 0.0.

• gas_logqion (float) – log10(Q_H) — total ionising photon rate [photons/s]. Used for normalisation. Default 49.1 (typical AGN at log L_bol ~ 44).

Returns:

NLR emission function with signature:

fn(wavelength, l_disc_bol_erg, covering_fraction,
   fwhm_kms=500.0, **kwargs) -> ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

The returned L_nu is in [erg/s/Hz].

Return type:

callable

Notes

JIT/grad compatible when Cue weights are registered as JAX pytrees. The weights must first be loaded via tengri.components.nebular.cue.load_cue_weights.

The Cue emulator was trained for AGN-illuminated gas (not stellar HII regions). It is appropriate for NLR emission; it does NOT model the BLR (which requires a separate, denser photoionisation model with n_H ~ 10^10 cm^-3 and no dust).

JIT-compatible: yes — disc interpolation is pure JAX triweight kernel.

Gradient-safe: yes — C²-continuous triweight kernel on all grid axes.

Grid required: data/relagn_disc_grid.h5 built by scripts/build_relagn_disc_grid.py (requires HEASOFT/XSPEC + KYCONV).

Torus normalization: derived by integrating the disc L_ν over the output wavelength grid via jnp.trapezoid — no separate agn_log_lbol parameter needed.

Unified AGN SED with NLR/BLR decomposition and geometric masking.

Implements the same conceptual decomposition as the UnifiedAGN class in Synthesizer (Lovell et al. 2025 [1]_, Roper et al. 2025 [2]_): an accretion disc, dusty torus, narrow line region (NLR), and broad line region (BLR), combined with inclination-dependent geometric masking. Polar dust reddening (SMC law) is additionally adapted from CIGALE’s skirtor2016 module [3]_.

Correspondence with Synthesizer’s UnifiedAGN

The following table maps tengri parameters to Synthesizer attributes (synthesizer.components.blackhole.BlackholeComponent):

tengri	Synthesizer	Note
agn_cos_inc	cos(inclination)	Synth uses inclination [deg]
agn_theta_torus	theta_torus [deg]	Same meaning
agn_nlr_cf	covering_fraction_nlr	Identical semantics
agn_blr_cf	covering_fraction_blr	Identical semantics
agn_torus_frac	torus_fraction = theta_torus/90°	Different: independent param
agn_blr_fwhm	velocity_dispersion_blr [km/s]	tengri uses FWHM directly
agn_nlr_fwhm	velocity_dispersion_nlr [km/s]	Same

Deliberate differences from Synthesizer

1. Analytic disc, not a grid: Synthesizer extracts disc emission from precomputed CLOUDY photoionisation grids. tengri uses the closed-form multicolor_disc (Shakura-Sunyaev / Novikov-Thorne) from disc.py. Rationale: grid look-ups are not JAX-jittable under gradient tape; analytic models are differentiable by construction.

2. Analytic NLR/BLR templates, not grids: Synthesizer uses CLOUDY grids over (logU, log n_H) for both NLR and BLR emission. tengri uses empirically calibrated Gaussian line templates (Vanden Berk et al. 2001 for BLR; Groves et al. 2004 for NLR). Rationale: same as above.

3. Smooth sigmoid mask, not a hard binary: Synthesizer zeros the disc and BLR when inclination + theta_torus > 90° — a hard step function. tengri replaces this with a smooth sigmoid (see _sigmoid_mask) centred at the same critical angle with a ~2° transition width. Rationale: the hard mask has zero gradient with respect to inclination almost everywhere, making gradient-based VI and HMC blind to inclination information near the critical angle.

4. ``agn_torus_frac`` decoupled from ``theta_torus``: Synthesizer internally sets torus_fraction = theta_torus / 90°, coupling the reprocessed fraction to the geometric opening angle. tengri keeps agn_torus_frac as an independent free parameter. Rationale: auto-deriving from cos(theta_torus) in the forward pass introduces a gradient discontinuity at the poles (CLAUDE.md gotcha). The coupling can be enforced at the Parameters level via a fixed/derived param.

5. Polar dust reddening (SMC law): agn_polar_ebv applies SMC extinction to the disc and BLR for Type 1 sightlines (mask > 0). Absent from Synthesizer’s basic UnifiedAGNIntrinsic; adapted from CIGALE skirtor2016 (Yang et al. 2020 [3]_).

Geometry summary

\[L_{\rm AGN}(\lambda) = \sigma(i, \theta_t)\, A_{\rm pol,eff}(\lambda)\, L_{\rm disc}(\lambda) + L_{\rm torus}(\lambda) + f_{\rm NLR}\, \eta_{\rm NLR}(\lambda)\, L_{\rm bol,disc} + \sigma(i, \theta_t)\, A_{\rm pol,eff}(\lambda)\, f_{\rm BLR}\, \eta_{\rm BLR}(\lambda)\, L_{\rm bol,disc} + \mathbb{1}_{\rm X-ray} \, L_{\rm X-ray}(\lambda) + \mathbb{1}_{\rm radio} \, L_{\rm radio}(\lambda)\]

where \(\sigma(i, \theta_t)\) is the smooth sigmoid mask (1 = visible, 0 = obscured), \(A_{\rm pol,eff}(\lambda) = 1 + \sigma(i, \theta_t) \, (A_{\rm pol}(\lambda) - 1)\) is the visibility-weighted SMC polar dust transmission (SMC law; only reddens when disc is visible to the observer), \(f_{\rm NLR/BLR}\) are the covering fractions, \(\eta_{\rm NLR/BLR}\) are the normalised line templates, and \(\mathbb{1}_{\rm X-ray/radio}\) are indicator functions controlling whether X-ray and radio components are included.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Rest-frame wavelength [Angstrom].

• agn_log_lbol (float) – \(\log_{10}(L_{\rm bol} / L_\odot)\) — total AGN bolometric luminosity expressed in solar luminosities (not erg/s). Convert from synthesizer’s bolometric_luminosity [erg/s] via agn_log_lbol = log10(L_bol_erg) - log10(L_SUN_erg), i.e. subtract \(\approx 33.58\). Typical bright Seyfert: 10.5; bright quasar: 12.5. The default 44.0 is a legacy test fixture that is not a physical AGN luminosity — set this parameter explicitly. See module-level “Convention” note. Default 44.0.

• agn_cos_inc (float) – Cosine of inclination angle (0 = edge-on/Type 2, 1 = face-on/Type 1). Synthesizer uses inclination in degrees; tengri uses cos(inclination). Default 0.5.

• agn_theta_torus (float) – Torus half-opening angle [degrees]. Controls the critical inclination above which the disc and BLR are obscured. Same meaning as theta_torus in Synthesizer. Default 30.0.

• agn_nlr_cf (float) – NLR covering fraction (0 to 1). Fraction of disc luminosity reprocessed into NLR emission. Synthesizer: covering_fraction_nlr. Default 0.1.

• agn_blr_cf (float) – BLR covering fraction (0 to 1). Fraction of disc luminosity reprocessed into BLR emission. Synthesizer: covering_fraction_blr. Default 0.1.

• agn_log_mbh (float) – log10(M_BH / Msun). Default 7.0.

• agn_log_ledd (float) – log10(L/L_Edd). Default -1.0.

• agn_a_spin (float) – BH spin (0 to 0.998). Default 0.0.

• agn_T_hot (float) – Hot dust temperature [K]. Default 1200.

• agn_T_warm (float) – Warm dust temperature [K]. Default 300.

• agn_frac_hot (float) – Hot-to-warm dust fraction. Default 0.3.

• agn_tau_torus (float) – Torus optical depth at 9.7 um. Default 5.

• agn_torus_frac (float) – Torus covering factor (fraction of L_bol intercepted by torus). In Synthesizer this is derived as theta_torus / 90°; here it is an independent free parameter. Default 0.5.

• agn_frac (float) – Overall AGN fraction scaling. Default 0.1.

• agn_blr_fwhm (float) – BLR line FWHM [km/s]. Synthesizer uses velocity_dispersion_blr; tengri uses FWHM directly. Default 5000.

• agn_nlr_fwhm (float) – NLR line FWHM [km/s]. Default 500.

• agn_polar_ebv (float) – Polar dust E(B-V) applied to disc + BLR for Type 1 views (SMC law). Adapted from CIGALE skirtor2016 [3]_. Not in Synthesizer’s basic UnifiedAGN. Default 0.0 (no reddening).

• nlr_fn (callable or None) –

  NLR emission backend. Signature:

  nlr_fn(wavelength, l_disc_bol_erg, covering_fraction,
         fwhm_kms=500.0, **kwargs) -> ndarray, shape (n_wave,)
  

  where the return value is L_nu [erg/s/Hz]. Default None uses the built-in analytic template from nlr_emission(). To use the Cue neural-net emulator, pass the result of make_cue_nlr_fn().

• blr_fn (callable or None) – BLR emission backend. Same signature as nlr_fn. Default None uses the built-in analytic template from blr_emission().

• include_xray (bool) – If True, include X-ray corona emission. Default False (UV-optical-IR only).

• xray_gamma_agn (float) – X-ray photon index (power-law slope). Default 1.8. Valid range: 1.4–2.4.

• xray_alpha_ox (float) – UV-to-X-ray slope. Default -1.4. Valid range: -2.0 to -1.0. Controls the relative normalization of X-ray vs. optical SED.

• xray_E_cut (float) – X-ray exponential cutoff energy [keV]. Default 300.0.

• include_radio (bool) – If True, include radio synchrotron + AGN radio jet emission. Default False.

• radio_q_ir (float) – FIR–radio correlation parameter (Bell+2003 mode). Default 2.64.

• radio_alpha_sf (float) – Star-forming synchrotron spectral index. Default 0.8.

• radio_loudness (float) – AGN radio-loudness log10(L_5GHz/L_B). Default 0.0 (no radio AGN).

• radio_alpha_agn (float) – AGN radio spectral index. Default 0.7.

Returns:

Total AGN L_nu [erg s^-1 Hz^-1].

Return type:

array, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT/grad/vmap compatible when nlr_fn and blr_fn are JIT-compatible (the default analytic templates are; Cue-backed closures are also JIT-safe since the weights are closed over as static pytree leaves).

X-ray and radio components (when included):

• X-ray: Power-law corona emission normalised via the alpha_OX relation (Tananbaum+1979). Wavelength range: λ < 124 Å (E > ~100 eV). Computed via xray_agn_corona() [4].

• Radio: Synchrotron + optional free-free + AGN jet emission. Wavelength range: λ > 1 mm (ν < 300 GHz). Computed via radio_total() [5].

When both include_xray=False and include_radio=False, the function returns the UV-optical-FIR unified AGN SED (original behaviour). The new components are additive and do not affect existing parameters or output ranges.

Nebular line and continuum emission from CLOUDY grids or the Cue neural network emulator, with optional shock and DIG mixing.

MAPPINGS III + V shock emission line model.

Loads Allen+2008 (ApJS 178 20) MAPPINGS III and Alarie & Morisset 2019 (3MdBs, RMxAA 55 279) MAPPINGS V grids from data/mappings_templates.h5 and interpolates line ratios across the full 4-D grid:

(v_shock, B/√n or B, log_density, abundance)

If the HDF5 file is missing, falls back to the Allen+2008 Table 5 hardcoded arrays (solar, n=1 cm⁻³, 8 velocity points, 10 lines) with a DeprecationWarning. Build the grid with:

python scripts/download_mappings_templates.py

Interpolation strategy

• velocity, B-field, log_density : interp_nd_triweight — C²-continuous triweight kernel (Hearin et al. 2023 / DSPS), jointly interpolated across all three continuous axes. Bin edges are precomputed at grid load time via edges_for_grid to avoid rebuilding inside JIT traces.

• abundance, component, version : Python string → integer index (static)

class tengri.components.nebular.shock.ShockBackend(shock_abundance: str = 'solar', shock_component: str = 'combined')

Bases: object

MAPPINGS V shock emission backend satisfying the NebularBackend Protocol.

Wraps compute_shock_sed() as an object-oriented backend so that shock emission can be stored and dispatched using the same interface as other nebular backends (CueBackend, CloudyGridBackend, etc.).

Static (non-traced) configuration is stored as dataclass fields. JAX-traced continuous parameters (velocity, density, B-field, Hα luminosity) are passed as arguments to predict_nebular_sed().

Parameters:

• shock_abundance (str) – Abundance set name: "solar", "2xsolar", "lmc", "smc", etc.

• shock_component (str) – "shock", "precursor", or "combined".

• has_continuum (bool) – Always False — MAPPINGS V provides line emission only.

• has_free_params (bool) – Always True — velocity, density, B-field are differentiable parameters.

• name (str) – Backend identifier string (“shock”).

Notes

JIT-compatible: Methods return JAX arrays suitable for JIT compilation. All computations use pure functions with no side effects.

Attributes: has_continuum is always False — MAPPINGS V provides shock-associated emission lines only (no underlying continuum). has_free_params is always True — all parameters (velocity, density, B-field) are differentiable and suitable for optimization.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — delegates to compute_shock_sed.

Abundance and component: These are fixed at backend initialization via shock_abundance and shock_component dataclass fields. Continuous parameters (velocity, density, B-field, H-alpha luminosity) are traced and differentiable under jax.jit.

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives and calls to _shock_line_arrays and _place_line_profiles.

Line placement: Emission lines are placed as Gaussian profiles (if line_sigma_aa > 0) or delta functions (if line_sigma_aa = 0). Delta functions scatter energy into the nearest pixel, normalized by pixel width to preserve flux.

tengri.components.nebular.shock.shock_line_ratios(shock_velocity: float, shock_log_density: float = 0.0, shock_b_over_sqrt_n: float = 1.0, shock_abundance: str = 'solar', shock_component: str = 'combined') → dict[str, float]

• shock_component (str) – Which emission component to return. One of "shock", "precursor", "combined" (default). Raises ValueError for unknown values.

Returns:

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — continuous parameters (velocity, density, B-field) are interpolated via interp_nd_triweight, safe under jax.jit. Discrete parameters (abundance, component) are resolved at call time and not traced.

Fallback: If the MAPPINGS V HDF5 grid is missing, falls back to the Allen+2008 Table 5 hardcoded array (solar abundance, n=1 cm⁻³, 8 velocity points) with a DeprecationWarning. To avoid this, download the grid via scripts/download_mappings_templates.py.

Interpolation: Triweight kernel (C²-continuous) jointly interpolates velocity, density, and B-field across all three axes. Grid edges are precomputed at load time to avoid rebuilding inside JIT traces.

Diffuse Ionized Gas (DIG) nebular emission model.

Models the mixing of ionizing photon-powered emission from two gas components: dense HII regions and diffuse ionized gas (DIG). DIG is low-density ionized gas between HII regions, characterised by lower ionization parameter (log U ~ −4 vs −2.5 in HII regions). This produces a distinct emission-line signature: enhanced low-ionization diagnostics ([NII]/Hα, [SII]/Hα, [OI]/Hα).

Observationally, DIG contributes ~30–60% of Hα flux in local star-forming galaxies (Reynolds 1984; Haffner et al. 2009; Tacchella et al. 2022).

Mixing formula: Returns a weighted average of nebular emission at two ionization parameters (HII + DIG):

L_total = (1 − f_DIG) × L(log U_HII) + f_DIG × L(log U_DIG)

where log U_DIG = log U_HII + Δ log U, with Δ log U = −1 dex (default).

When f_DIG = 0 (default), collapses to pure HII region emission.

Predict nebular SED with HII region and diffuse ionized gas components.

Computes emission from two ionization regimes (HII + DIG) using any backend, then combines via mass-weighted mixing. This captures the enhanced low-ionization emission ([NII], [SII], [OI]) characteristic of warm, ionized ISM.

Parameters:

• nebular_backend (NebularBackend (CloudyGridBackend or CueBackend)) – Backend with predict_nebular_sed() method. Called twice (HII, DIG).

• ssp_wave (array, shape (n_wave,)) – SSP wavelength grid in Å. [Å]

• ssp_weights (array, shape (n_age,)) – Stellar mass weights of composite stellar population per age bin. [Msun]

• ssp_log_ages_yr (array, shape (n_age,)) – Age grid of SSP basis (in cosmic time). [log10(yr)]

• log_z (float) – Stellar metallicity (SSP grid metallicity). [log10(Z)]

• neb_logU (float, optional) – HII region ionization parameter. Default: −3.0. [log10(U)]

• neb_logZ_gas (float, optional) – Gas-phase metallicity (relative to solar). If None, defaults to stellar metallicity. Default: None. [log10(Z/Zsun)]

• neb_fesc (float, optional) – Ionizing photon escape fraction (applies to both HII and DIG). Default: 0.0. [dimensionless, ∈ [0, 1]]

• neb_fesc_lya (float, optional) – Lyman-α-specific escape fraction. Default: 0.0. [dimensionless, ∈ [0, 1]]

• neb_dig_frac (float, optional) – DIG mass fraction. Default: 0.0. [dimensionless, ∈ [0, 1]]

• neb_dig_delta_logU (float, optional) – Offset in ionization parameter for DIG (negative). Default: −1.0 dex. [dex]

• line_sigma_aa (float, optional) – Gaussian line width for emission-line placement. Default: 0.0 (delta). [Å]

• **kwargs – Additional backend-specific keyword arguments (passed to both calls).

Returns:

Combined nebular SED: (1 − f_DIG) × L_HII + f_DIG × L_DIG. [erg/s/Hz]

Return type:

array, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — all operations use jnp primitives, but note that when neb_dig_frac is a traced JAX value, both HII and DIG forward passes execute (no short-circuit optimisation).

Mixing model (Haffner et al. 2009, Tacchella et al. 2022):

The diffuse ionized gas (DIG) has a lower ionization parameter than HII regions, producing a distinct line-ratio signature. We approximate the total emission as a linear combination:

\[L_{\mathrm{total}}(\lambda) = (1 - f_{\mathrm{DIG}}) \, L_{\mathrm{HII}}(\lambda, \log U_{\mathrm{HII}}) + f_{\mathrm{DIG}} \, L_{\mathrm{DIG}}(\lambda, \log U_{\mathrm{DIG}})\]

where log U_DIG = log U_HII + Δ log U, and both components use the same metallicity, escape fraction, and stellar population weights.

Physical picture:

• HII regions: dense, photoionised by young (< 1 Myr) OB stars. Log U ~ −2.5 to −3. Dominated by recombination lines ([OIII], [SIII], etc.).

• DIG: diffuse, warm (~8000 K), ionised by stellar radiation and shocks. Log U ~ −3 to −4. Dominated by forbidden lines ([NII], [SII], [OI]).

Escape fraction:

Both HII and DIG share the same f_esc (stellar-population-level escape). This is a simplification; physically, dust might preferentially shield DIG, but we do not model this spatial variation.

Pitfall: When neb_dig_frac is a JAX-traced (differentiable) value, both forward passes (HII + DIG) execute and contribute to gradients, even if neb_dig_frac = 0 at runtime. Pre-compute DIG mixing only when needed.

Observation Models

Photometry, spectroscopy, calibration, and emission line marginalization.

Spectrophotometric calibration polynomials.

When fitting spectra, the observed spectrum has wavelength-dependent calibration errors from flux calibration, slit losses, and telluric residuals. A low-order Chebyshev polynomial corrects this multiplicatively:

spec_obs(lambda) = C(lambda) * spec_physical(lambda)

where C(lambda) = 1 + sum_{n=1}^{order} a_n * T_n(x) and x = 2*(lambda - lambda_min)/(lambda_max - lambda_min) - 1 maps wavelengths to [-1, 1]. The constant term is unity by convention (overall normalization is handled elsewhere); the fitted coefficients represent deviations from a flat calibration.

Coefficients a_n have a Gaussian(0, sigma) prior that regularizes the polynomial toward unity, preventing overfitting of broad spectral features.

Parameters integration example

To add calibration coefficients as free parameters:

from tengri.parameters.priors import Gaussian

spec = Parameters(
    ...,
    # 3rd-order calibration polynomial (3 free coefficients)
    cal_c1=Gaussian(0.0, 0.1),
    cal_c2=Gaussian(0.0, 0.1),
    cal_c3=Gaussian(0.0, 0.05),
)

# In the forward model, pack coefficients and apply:
coeffs = jnp.array([params["cal_c1"], params["cal_c2"], params["cal_c3"]])
model_spec = apply_calibration(physical_spec, wave_obs, coeffs, wave_min, wave_max)

tengri.observation.calibration.calibration_polynomial(wavelength: Array, coeffs: Array, wave_min: float, wave_max: float) → Array

Multiplicative calibration polynomial C(lambda).

tengri.observation.calibration.chebyshev_basis(wavelength: Array, order: int, wave_min: float, wave_max: float) → Array

Evaluate Chebyshev polynomial basis at given wavelengths.

tengri.observation.calibration.double_calibration_polynomial(wavelength: Array, coeffs_blue: Array, coeffs_red: Array, wave_split: float) → Array

Piecewise calibration: independent Chebyshev polynomials for blue and red halves.

For two-arm spectrographs (e.g. X-SHOOTER, DEIMOS) where a detector gap or dichroic split causes a calibration discontinuity, fitting a single polynomial across the full range can bias the result. This function applies separate polynomials to each half, matched to their local wavelength range.

Parameters:

• wavelength (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid [Angstrom], must be sorted.

• coeffs_blue (array, shape (order_blue,)) – Chebyshev coefficients for the blue arm (wavelength < wave_split).

• coeffs_red (array, shape (order_red,)) – Chebyshev coefficients for the red arm (wavelength >= wave_split).

• wave_split (float) – Wavelength boundary between blue and red arms [Angstrom].

Returns:

Multiplicative calibration factor (dimensionless).

Return type:

ndarray, shape (n_wave,)

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes. Gradient-safe: yes — differentiable w.r.t. coefficients and wavelengths.

tengri.observation.calibration.marginalize_calibration(model_flux: Array, obs_flux: Array, obs_err: Array, wavelength: Array, n_poly: int = 3, prior_sigma: float = 1.0) → tuple[Array, Array, Array]

Analytically marginalize over calibration polynomial coefficients.

Given a model SED m(lambda) and observed spectrum d(lambda) with noise sigma(lambda), the calibrated model is C(lambda)*m(lambda) where C is a Chebyshev polynomial. With a Gaussian prior on the polynomial coefficients c ~ N(0, prior_sigma^2 I), the optimal coefficients and marginalized log-likelihood are computed in closed form.

This follows the Prospector approach: the calibration polynomial is treated as a nuisance and integrated out analytically at each likelihood evaluation, reducing the dimensionality of the sampling problem.

Parameters:

• model_flux (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Physical model spectrum (any flux units, matching obs_flux).

• obs_flux (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Observed spectrum (same units as model_flux).

• obs_err (array, shape (n_wave,)) – 1-sigma uncertainties on the observed spectrum (same units).

• wavelength (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Wavelength grid [Angstrom].

• n_poly (int, optional) – Number of Chebyshev polynomial coefficients (order 1 through n_poly). The constant term (T_0 = 1) is implicit and fixed. Default 3.

• prior_sigma (float, optional) – Standard deviation of the Gaussian prior on each coefficient. Default 1.0.

Returns:

• log_likelihood_marginal (scalar) – Marginalized log-likelihood with calibration polynomial integrated out.

• c_hat (ndarray, shape (n_poly,)) – MAP calibration coefficients (a_1 … a_n_poly).

• c_hat_err (ndarray, shape (n_poly,)) – Posterior standard deviations of the coefficients.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — n_poly is a static argument. Gradient-safe: no — uses matrix inversion (not safe for gradient).

The marginalized log-likelihood integrates the Gaussian likelihood and Gaussian prior on the polynomial coefficients in closed form via the matrix determinant lemma.

Stellar Population Synthesis

DSPS-based stellar population synthesis: loading SSP grids and computing effective metallicities.

class tengri.SSPData(ssp_wave: Array, ssp_flux: Array, ssp_lg_age_gyr: Array, ssp_lgmet: Array, ssp_mass_remaining: Array | None = None, ssp_alpha_fe: Array | None = None)

Bases: NamedTuple

Immutable container for SSP template library.

Holds wavelength grid, flux templates, and metadata (age/metallicity grids) needed by the CSP integration engine. Typically loaded once from disk and reused across many forward-model evaluations.

Parameters:

• ssp_wave (array, shape (n_wave,)) – Rest-frame wavelength grid [Angstrom].

• ssp_flux (array, shape (n_met, n_age, n_wave)) – Spectral luminosity density of simple stellar populations (SSPs) per unit stellar mass [erg/s/Hz/Msun]. Origin: BC03, BPASS, FSPS, ProGeny, or other DSPS-compatible library.

• ssp_lg_age_gyr (array, shape (n_age,)) – Age grid in log10 space [log10(Gyr)].

• ssp_lgmet (array, shape (n_met,)) – Metallicity grid (absolute, NOT solar-relative) [log10(Z)]. Offset: log10(Z_sun) ≈ −1.848 (Asplund+2009). Do NOT confuse with user-facing log10(Z/Z_sun).

• ssp_mass_remaining (array, shape (n_met, n_age), optional) – Fraction of initial stellar mass still present (living stars + remnants) at each (age, metallicity) [dimensionless, ∈ [0, 1]]. Used for stellar mass normalization in CSP integral. Depends on IMF and isochrone library; None if unavailable.

• ssp_alpha_fe (array, optional) – Alpha enhancement grid (for future use). Currently None. When implemented: ssp_flux will be (n_met, n_alpha, n_age, n_wave).

Notes

Metallicity convention: ssp_lgmet is absolute log10(Z), NOT relative to solar. To convert user-supplied log10(Z/Z_sun) to grid coordinates, add LOG10_ZSUN ≈ −1.848.

Future extension: ssp_alpha_fe support for alpha-element abundance variations (Vazdekis+2015, MIST, etc.) is planned. Currently, metallicity is the only dimension; alpha is fixed (typically solar, α = 0).

Survival mass: ssp_mass_remaining encodes stellar mass loss due to stellar evolution (main-sequence turnoff, white dwarf cooling, etc.). It is essential for mass-based inferences but may not be present in older SSP libraries.

Examples

>>> from tengri import SSPData, load_ssp_data
>>> ssp = load_ssp_data("data/ssp_miles.h5")
>>> ssp.ssp_flux.shape  # (n_met, n_age, n_wave)

tengri.load_ssp_data(filepath: str) → SSPData

Load SSP templates from a DSPS-format HDF5 file.

Reads stellar population synthesis templates stored in HDF5 format (compatible with DSPS library and distributed SSP libraries: BC03, BPASS, FSPS, ProGeny). Handles optional fields (ssp_mass_remaining, ssp_alpha_fe) gracefully.

Parameters:

filepath (str) – Path to HDF5 file. Expected fields: ssp_wave, ssp_flux, ssp_lg_age_gyr, ssp_lgmet. Optional: ssp_mass_remaining, ssp_alpha_fe.

Returns:

Loaded SSP container with all template data and metadata.

Return type:

SSPData

Raises:

• ImportError – If h5py is not installed.

• KeyError – If required HDF5 fields are missing.

• OSError – If filepath does not exist or is not readable.

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — only file I/O occurs; returned SSPData is immutable and suitable for use in JAX operations.

File format: Standard DSPS HDF5 layout. See DSPS documentation and distributed templates on halos.as.arizona.edu for format details.

Examples

>>> from tengri.components.stellar.sps import load_ssp_data
>>> ssp = load_ssp_data("data/ssp_bc03.h5")
>>> print(ssp.ssp_wave.shape, ssp.ssp_flux.shape)

tengri.effective_metallicity(log_z_fe: float, alpha_fe: float = 0.0) → float

Convert [Fe/H] + [alpha/Fe] to effective total metallicity.

Approximates the effect of alpha-element enhancement on the SED as a shift in the total metallicity used for SSP interpolation. Used when SSP templates are computed at fixed solar abundance ratios and cannot vary [alpha/Fe] at runtime.

Parameters:

• log_z_fe (float) – Iron abundance [Fe/H] (equivalently, log10(Z/Zsun) when alpha_fe = 0). [dex]

• alpha_fe (float, optional) – Alpha-element enhancement [alpha/Fe] relative to solar. Default 0.0 (solar abundance ratios). [dex]

Returns:

Effective total metallicity log10(Z_eff/Zsun). Same units as log_z_fe. [dex]

Return type:

float

Notes

JIT-compatible: yes — pure arithmetic; decorated with @jax.jit. Gradient-safe: yes.

Approximation (Thomas, Maraston & Bender 2003 [1]_): only valid for SSP grids that lack an explicit [alpha/Fe] axis. When the grid does include one, prefer bilinear (Z, [alpha/Fe]) interpolation; use has_alpha_grid() to test the SSP container at construction.

\[[Z/H]_{\mathrm{eff}} = [\mathrm{Fe}/\mathrm{H}] + 0.75 \, [\alpha/\mathrm{Fe}]\]

The coefficient 0.75 (_ALPHA_TO_Z_COEFF) is the empirical enhancement-to-metallicity scaling adopted by the Vazdekis et al. 2015 [2]_ MILES library for E-MILES alpha-enhanced SSPs.
