We see that this changes (increases) the magnetic field to 4.5 nT -- which is expected since the normalizing frequency is above the break we have put in.

We find the total energy density in the lobes in a similar way

```
print(s.total_energy_density)
```

to get a value of 1.6e-11 J/m**3. The total pressure in Pa is given by dividing by 3:

```
print(s.total_energy_density/3)
```

so the equipartition pressure in the lobes is 5.4e-12 Pa.

We can plot the radio spectral luminosity as a function of (source frame) frequency:
