Hello,

I am using version 2.2. It is strange I can see H2O-SelfContCKDMT252 and 
H2O-ForeignContCKDMT252 in the doxygen continua.cc source file, but it does not 
work when I try and include it in my code. CKDMT250 doesn’t work also. I have 
CKDMT100 though so I can use this.



Should I use the self and the foreign versions together?



Thanks

Emma

hi emma,
which arts version are you using?
arts-2.2 has ckdmt250 listed. that's the one stefan was talking about 
(obviously i didn't fix the wrong version number yet. will do in the next days, 
renaming them to ckdmt252. but so far you find them as ckdmt250). if it's not 
in your arts-2.2 distribution, please update your arts. we fixed a number of 
bugs during the last year...
best wishes,
Jana

Hi Stefan,

Sorry I don't think I cc'd the mailing list last time. Looking through 
continua.cc I can't seem to find anything for CKDMT252, do you mean CKDMT24 
instead? The options for continua given in the documentation are listed at the 
bottom of this message, however some of them, aren't in the continua.cc file, 
so I get an error. I have a separate question regarding the self and foreign 
continua, would you advise using both in a radiance calculation to include both 
types of continua behaviour, such as in the code snippet below?

Q.ABS_SPECIES(2).TAG{1}  = 'H2O'
Q.ABS_SPECIES(2).TAG{2}  = H2O_SelfContCKD24;
Q.ABS_SPECIES(2).TAG{3}  = H2O_ForeignContCKD24;


Thanks very much,
Emma

Dear Emma,

sorry for the slow reply, I’m very overloaded. Writing to the mailing list will 
usually be faster.

Just look in file continua.cc after all tagnames that contain CKDMT252. They 
should work out of the box, otherwise please let us know.

Best regards,

Stefan
