inline auto phot::PhotConvert<PhotSystem::ST, PhotSystem::Flambda>(const double photIn, double) -> double

Convert an ST magnitude to Flambda (erg/s/Angstrom, a specific luminosity)

The algebraic inverse of the Flambda -> ST conversion above: recovers the flux flux0ST’s own formula defines, then multiplies by fourPiTenPcSq to undo the standard-distance assumption and recover a specific luminosity in erg/s/Angstrom.
