Enabled
Use vibrational temperature profiles where available.
Driver Table requires
*NTE
section
or
at least one vibrational temperature profile included via
.atm
files in the
*ATM
section.
Disabled
Assume Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium (LTE) throughout (just using kinetic temperature profile for source function).
Ignore
*NTE
section.
Restrictions
Incompatible with
LUT
Flag.
Notes
Non-LTE treatment is described in
Edwards
et al
(1993)
