.. _MuonGun flux parametrizations:

Available flux parameterizations
================================

The following models are distributed with MuonGun, and are valid arguments for
:py:func:`icecube.MuonGun.load_model`:

In addition to the cosmic-ray flux models there are also two 'pseudofluxes' that
parameterize the output of dCORSIKA in two configurations used to generate most
of the IC79 penetrating muon simulation.
