"""
Simulate the extended radio halo emission from the galaxy cluster
experiencing on-going/recent merger.
Description
-----------
1. Calculate the merger crossing time (t_cross; ~1 Gyr);
2. Calculate the diffusion coefficient (Dpp) from the systematic
acceleration timescale (tau_acc; ~0.1 Gyr). The acceleration
diffusion is assumed to have an action time ~ t_cross (i.e.,
only during merger crossing), and then been disabled (i.e.,
only radiation and ionization losses later);
3. Assume the electrons are constantly injected and has a power-law
energy spectrum, determine the injection rate by further assuming
that the total injected electrons has energy of a fraction (eta_e)
of the ICM total thermal energy;
4. Set the electron density/spectrum be the accumulated electrons
injected during t_merger time, then evolve it for time_init period
considering only losses and constant injection, in order to derive
an approximately steady electron spectrum for following use;
5. Calculate the magnetic field from the cluster total mass (which
is assumed to be growth linearly from M_main+M_sub to M_obs);
6. Calculate the energy losses for the coefficients of Fokker-Planck
equation;
7. Solve the Fokker-Planck equation to derive the relativistic
electron spectrum at t_obs (i.e., z_obs);
8. Calculate the synchrotron emissivity from the derived electron
spectrum.
