atm_fieldInitializeNonLTE

Workspace.atm_fieldInitializeNonLTE(self, atm_field: AtmField = self.atm_field, abs_bands: AbsorptionBands = self.abs_bands, normalization: Numeric = 0) → None

Initialize the non-LTE atmospheric field from the LTE temperature field.

Note that the bands have to be 1-line long to work.

This is because of how non-LTE is implemented in ARTS.

Parameters:
  • atm_field (~pyarts3.arts.AtmField, optional) – An atmospheric field in ARTS, this is the main atmospheric data structure in ARTS. Defaults to self.atm_field. [INOUT]

  • abs_bands (~pyarts3.arts.AbsorptionBands, optional) – Bands of absorption lines for line-by-line (LBL) calculations. Defaults to self.abs_bands. [IN]

  • normalization (~pyarts3.arts.Numeric, optional) – Normalization factor for the non-LTE field - all species of same isotopologue will be summed to this value (non-positive means no normalization). Defaults to 0 [IN]
