CoolingCurve

Import, run, and produce specific cooling curves in CIE, which includes the correction for density. Electron number dencity is temperature dependent, calculated from CIE ionization fractions of Bryans et al. 2008. Ion-by-ion tables are taken from Gnat et al. 2011, which were calculated with Cloudy.
