Galaxy Line Emission & Absorption Modeling

Basically a class which parses the NIST Atomic Spectra Database and saves the data to a dictionary on HDD. You can pass an matplotlib.axis, and the emissions lines will be plotted with an optional normalization factor.

Automated Line Fitting Algorithm

Empirical analysis of ionised nebulae, with uncertainty propagation

Given a FITS spectrum file, the script will calculate the star’s doppler shift, and fit a Voigt profile and continuum to each emission line, which is used for calculating the flux.
