System Description

The first set of parameters which Python needs are information about the overall system

System_type(star,cv,bh,agn,previous)                   bh

### Parameters for the Central Object
Central_object.mass(msol)                        10
Central_object.radius(cm)               8.85667e+06
Binary.mass_sec(msol)                           15
Binary.period(hr)                               72

### Parameters for the Disk (if there is one)
Disk.type(none,flat,vertically.extended)                 flat
Disk.radiation(yes,no)                          yes
Disk.rad_type_to_make_wind(bb,models)                   bb
Disk.temperature.profile(standard,readin)             standard
Disk.mdot(msol/yr)                            1e-6
Disk.radmax(cm)                                1e13

### Parameters for Boundary Layer or the compact object in an X-ray Binary or AGN
BH.radiation(yes,no)                            yes
BH.rad_type_to_make_wind(bb,models,power,cloudy,brems)                power
Boundary_layer.lum(ergs/s)              4.72063e+39
Boundary_layer.power_law_index                 -1.5

System_type is starting point, a basic classification of the type of object one is trying to model. This is used to guide further questions about the object and to set defaults.

Most of the other parameters are fairly self-explanatory, and are documented fully in the various Parameters entries.
