Niebla: an open-source code for modeling the extragalactic background light (data)

Paper: Niebla: an open-source code for modeling the extragalactic background light Authors: Sara Porras-Bedmar, Manuel Meyer Description: These are the EBL intensities for all models from this publication,calculated with the three dust reemission techniques (Chary, BOSA and 2BB)and with/out an added 14% systematics to the data points used in the fits.Details can be found in the paper. Contents of each file: - The [0,0] entry is null, and should be ignored. - The zeroth column contains the wavelength values in mu meters. - The first row contains the redshift values. - The remaining values are the EBL intensity values in nW / m^2 / sr.These files are prepared to be read using ebltable (https://github.com/me-manu/ebltable),and the pipeline to load them is simple: from ebltable.ebl_from_model import EBLebl_model = EBL.readascii(file_name, model_name='whichever')The object ebl_model can be used with the functionalities of this library to evaluatethe EBL model at different wavelengths and redshifts, and to calculate its optical depth.
