Features

Observe the phase curve of an asteroid, ...

>>> from phunk import PhaseCurve
>>> # Observations of (20) Massalia from Gehrels 1956
>>> phase = [0.57, 1.09, 3.20, 10.99, 14.69, 20.42]  # in degrees
>>> mag = [6.555, 6.646, 6.793, 7.130, 7.210, 7.414]
>>> epoch = [35193, 35194, 35198, 35214, 35223, 35242]  # in MJD
>>> pc = PhaseCurve(phase=phase, mag=mag, epoch=epoch, target='massalia')

..., fit it in one of multiple photometric models, ....

>>> pc.fit(["HG", "HG12", "HG12S", "HG1G2", "sHG1G2", "LinExp"])

..., and plot / process the results.

>>> pc.HG1G2.H
>>> pc.HG12.H
>>> pc.plot()
