Lorentzian Profile model

Until 12/23/2011, lorentzian fitting used the complicated and somewhat bloated gaussfitter.py code. Now, this is a great example of how to make your own model!

Module API

pyspeckit.spectrum.models.inherited_lorentzian.lorentzian(x, A, dx, w, return_components=False)

Returns a 1-dimensional lorentzian of form A/(2*pi)*w/((x-dx)**2 + ((w/2)**2))

[amplitude,center,width]

return_components does nothing but is required by all fitters

pyspeckit.spectrum.models.inherited_lorentzian.lorentzian_fitter()

Generator for lorentzian fitter class
