(Teff, logg, filt)[source] [edit on github]¶ Quadratic limb-darkening law. All grid points have metallicities Z=0 (solar), microturbulence xi=2.
Parameters: filt : string
Name of the filter used.
logg : float
Logarithm of the stellar surface gravity.
Teff : float
Host star effective temperature.
method : string, optional. Either ‘F’ or ‘L’
Method of computation: least-square or flux conservation
Returns: a, b : float, float
The linear and quadratic limb-darkening terms for a quadratic law: I(mu)/I(1) = 1 - a*(1 - mu) - b*(1 - mu)**2
