An emission spectrum from hot diffuse gas based on the model calculations
of Mewe and Gronenschild (as amended by Kaastra). The model includes line
emissions from several elements.
The references for the MEKA model are as follows :
- Mewe, R., Gronenschild, E.H.B.M., and van den Oord, G.H.J. 1985,
A&, 62, 197
- Mewe, R., Lemen, J.R., and van den Oord, G.H.J. 1986, A&, 65, 511

(Internal SRON-Leiden Report, updated version 2.0)
Similar credit may also be given for the adopted ionization balance

- Arnaud, M., and Rothenflug, M. 1985, A&, 60, 425
