Collection of tools that I'm gathering while doing astronomy/astrophysics research with Python. For example,
- Create, merge, append with numpy.recarrays (
rec.py) - Make latex tables from (record) arrays (
latex.py) - Convert between magnitude and luminosity (
stellar.py) - I/O convenience for fits/ascii/json tables (
io.py) - Convert MJD to anything (
simtime.py) - Binning, e.g. to make luminosity functions (
simstat.py)
Requirements:
- numpy
- astropy - http://www.astropy.org/
Optional:
- matplotlib
- scipy
- APLpy - http://aplpy.github.com/
- k3match - http://pschella.github.com/k3match
To use, at your own risk, run python setup.py install (or place this folder in your $PYTHONPATH)
