Hi pdrtpy folks,
Thanks for the great tool and all the on going development of pdrtpy.
Suggestion, can you add to the pdrtpy website a recomendation for the definition of FIR to use? I.e. what wavelength one should be using for the FIR. I see that there was a recent post in the google group (https://groups.google.com/g/pdrt/c/Qs6SjX8EAhg/m/nY5HHULDAgAJ) where Mark recommends using 8 um to 1000 um (i.e. the total IR or TIR). I just did a quick puruesal of all the main references for pdrtpy and the website and I could see the recommendation anywhere. Maybe I missed it, but if I missed it, others probably did too. Including it on this page near the same section where it talks about corrections for filling factors would be helpful.
Thanks!
Carl

hi Carl,

Thanks for the suggestion. I've created an issue to track it: https://github.com/mpound/pdrtpy/issues/181
