The Arcetri Spectral Code element radiative losses format

Radiative losses have been determined by using the Arcetri Code line emissivities for each element calculated adopting a plasma electron density of 1010 cm-3.

Each emissivity line is structured using the following format:

(2e15.4)

An example from the Mg file (Phot cm3 s-1) is given below: 

     1.0000e+04     1.5266e-16
     1.2589e+04     4.2894e-16
     1.5849e+04     1.6757e-15
     1.9953e+04     2.4615e-15
        ....           ....
where the left column indicates the electron temperature of the plasma (in K) and the right column indicates the element radiative losses at that temperature (in Phot cm3 s-1).

The format of the emissivity files in erg cm3 s-1 is identical to this one.
