space-raccoon 1.0.0

Raccoon cleans modulation created by undersampling the PSF in the JWST/NIRSpec spectra.

Raccoon cleans the “wiggles” (i.e., low-frequency sinusoidal artifacts) in the JWST-NIRSpec IFS (integral field spectroscopy) data. These wiggles are caused by resampling noise or aliasing artifacts. For a quick start or demonstration, see the example notebook here.

Installation

You can install raccoon using pip. Run the following command:

pip install space-raccoon

Alternatively, you can install the latest development version from GitHub as:

git clone https://github.com/ajshajib/raccoon.git
cd raccoon
pip install .
