Calculate the Boltzmann factor for a given energy.

Parameters:
  • e (float) – The energy for which to calculate the Boltzmann factor.

  • emin (float) – The minimum energy to consider in the calculation.

  • kT (float) – The product of the Boltzmann constant and the temperature.

Returns:

The calculated Boltzmann factor.

Return type:

float

Notes

The Boltzmann factor is calculated as exp(-(e - emin) / kT).
