Follow-Up Lightcurves Multitool Assisting Radial velocities

A modular tool for analyzing light curves in support of RV follow-up programs.

FULMAR is an open source Python package that was created to assist radial velocity follow-up programs by making the analysis of the light curves easier. It provides tools to download lightcurves, correct stellar activity, to look for transits, to refine transit parameters, to estimate the amplitude of the corresponding RV signal, and to visually probe signals detected in RV. Our tool aims at selecting suitable RV follow-up targets more effectively and making their analysis easier. It was build in a modular way, making new features easier to implement.

Installation

FULMAR can be installed using: pip install fulmar-astro

If you have multiple versions of Python and pip on your machine, try: pip3 install fulmar-astro

The latest version can be pulled from github::

git clone https://github.com/astrojose9/fulmar.git
cd fulmar
python setup.py install

If the command python does not point to Python 3 on your machine, you can try to replace the last line with python3 setup.py install. If you don't have git on your machine, you can find installation instructions here.

Dependencies: Python 3, Arviz, Astropy, celerite2 corner, exoplanet, Lightkurve, Matplotlib, NumPy, pymc3-ext, TransitLeastSquares

If you have trouble installing, please open an issue.
