MIST Isochrone interpolation
Project description
Minimint (MIni Mist INTerpolation)
Software to do simple interpolation of MIST isochrones.
Author: Sergey Koposov (2020-2021) skoposov AT ed DOT ac DOT uk
Instructions
- Install minimint. You can either pip install the released version or install from github
pip install minimint
- Download and prepare isochrone files
minimint.download_and_prepare()
That will download everything and process the evolutionary tracks and bolometric corrections by creating the necessary files for the package.
minimint.download_and_prepare()
by default creates bolometric corrections for these filters
'DECam', 'GALEX', 'PanSTARRS', 'SDSSugriz', 'SkyMapper','UBVRIplus', 'WISE'
If you need additional filters, you can specify them using the filters parameter
minimint.download_and_prepare(filters=['JWST','WISE','DECam', 'GALEX', 'PanSTARRS', 'SDSSugriz', 'SkyMapper','UBVRIplus'])
Check which filters are available on the MIST website http://waps.cfa.harvard.edu/MIST/model_grids.html
This will take some time (20-30 min) and will use some space (10-30 Gb).
If you want to put those processed isochrone files in a location different from the site-packages folder of minimint, you can use the outp_prefix parameter of download_and_prepare
. You then will need to either specify the location each time when you construct the interpolators or with the MINIMINT_DATA_PATH environment variable
Usage
In order to create an interpolator object for two filters (your can provide a list of any numbers of filters)
ii = minimint.Interpolator(['DECam_g','DECam_r'])
The interpolator is a callable, so you can call it on mass, log10(age), feh
ii(mass, logage,feh)
This returns a dictionary with photometry, logg, logteff and logl.
You also can use the interpolator to find the maximum valid mass on the isochrone.
ii.getMaxMass(logage, feh)
Examples
See the notebook in the examples folder
Synthetic stellar populations
If you are interested in synthetic stellar populations you will need the implementation of the IMF. For this you may want to use https://github.com/keflavich/imf
