Calculates the absorption of X-rays by the ISM.
XSpec model.
The Tuebingen-Boulder ISM absorption model. This model calculates the
cross-section for X-ray absorption by the ISM as the sum of the
cross-sections for X-ray absorption due to the gas-phase ISM, the
grain-phase ISM, and the molecules in the ISM. In the grain-phase ISM,
the effect of shielding by the grains is accounted for, but is
extremely small. In the molecular contribution to the ISM
cross-section, only molecular hydrogen is considered. In the gas-phase
ISM, the cross-section is the sum of the photoionization cross-sections of
the different elements, weighted by abundance and taking into account
depletion onto grains. In addition to the updates to the
photoionization cross-sections, the gas-phase cross-section differs
from previous values as a result of updates to the ISM
abundances. Details of updates to the photoionization cross-sections
as well as to abundances can be found in Wilms, Allen and McCray
(2000, ApJ 542, 914).
