Dear all
The two best tests of any self-absorption correction are 1. that the resulting curve looks like an absorption curve, and the slope is consistent with one above the edge and 2. the pixels in a two-dimensional detector are consistent with such a pixel-dependent correction without excessive fitting parameters. That is, the pixel geometry is corrected for. It is not trivial to do this with a single channel, pixel or spectrum.

What units should be used for the density in that field? (I could not find the answer in Section 9.9 of the Athena documentation on self-absorption approximations.)
