FUNCTION calz_guess_ebv,wave,flux_ratio,R_v=R_v ;+ ; NAME: ; calz_guess_ebv, ; PURPOSE: ; Guess the value of E(B-V) to get a given stellar flux ratio ; EXPLANATION: ; based on calz_unred.pro by W. Landsman ; CALLING SEQUENCE: ; ebv=calz_guess_ebv(wave,flux_ratio,R_v=R_v) ; INPUT: ; WAVE - wavelength at which the flux ratio is given (Angstroms) ; FLUX_RATIO - flux ratio between unredened and redenned (observed) flux. ; OUTPUT: ; EBV - color excess E(B-V), scalar. positive if flux_ratio is >1 , ; Note that the E(B-V) computed is for ; the stellar continuum, EBV(stars), which is related to the ; reddening derived from the gas, EBV(gas), via the Balmer ; decrement by EBV(stars) = 0.44*EBV(gas) according to Calzetti 2000. ; OPTIONAL INPUT KEYWORD: ; R_V - Ratio of total to selective extinction, default = 4.05. ; Calzetti et al. (2000) estimate R_V = 4.05 +/- 0.80 from optical ; -IR observations of 4 starbursts. ; EXAMPLE: ; ; print,calz_guess_ebv(10000.,1./0.98,R_v=R_v) ; 0.0116824 ; NOTES: ; ; PROCEDURE CALLS: ; POLY() ; REVISION HISTORY: ; JPB 30 Jan 2024 ;- ;flux_ratio=funred/flux must be >1 for positive E(B-V) ;print,calz_guess_ebv(10000.,1./0.98,R_v=R_v) ;wave_flux in AA x = 10000.0/wave ;Wavelength in inverse microns if N_elements(R_V) EQ 0 then R_V = 4.05 IF (wave GE 6300) AND (wave LE 22000) THEN $ klam = 2.659*(-1.857 + 1.040*x) + R_V IF (wave GE 912) AND (wave LT 6300) THEN $ klam = 2.659*(poly(x, [-2.156, 1.509d0, -0.198d0, 0.011d0])) + R_V ;Calzetti 2000 equation is ;funred = flux*10.0^(0.4*klam*ebv) ;stop ;ebv=alog10(funred/flux)/0.4/klam ebv=alog10(flux_ratio)/0.4/klam RETURN,ebv END
