A user-friendly graphical user-friendly interface for photoionization for codes

What is CLOUDY?
· A code developed to simulate complex physical conditions in photoionized clouds. · Continous developing since 1978 · It can simulate many of this parameters and produce a spectra output · Much of the properties of the ionized gas (kinetic temperature, chemical state, level of ionization, and level populations...) are determined by microscopic processes, rather than a single temperature · We can run cloudy with different input datasets and compare the outputs with the real data

Cloudy project web: www.nublado.org


Why CLOUDY?
· Observation of soft X-ray emission in highly obscured AGN The narrow Radiative Recombination Continua (RRC) and ratios on He-triplets and higher order series confirm photoionization as the radiation source · CIELO : Catalog of Ionized Emission Lines in Obscured AGN 64 highly obscured AGN (type 1.5) observed with the XMMNewton/RGS 35 objects exhibit 5 lines 34 objects exhibit RRC (CV, OVII, OVIII)

Cloudy can simulate several parameters associated with this clouds. With this GUI, we could compare the cloudy output data with real observations.

Why a GUI?
Write a lot of input files, given initial and final values for dataset. Plot the results at once Compare real data (FITS , RGS spectral files...) with simulated plots.
