Toolkit for atmospheric characterization of directly imaged exoplanets
Project description
spectral characterization and inference for exoplanet science
species is a toolkit for atmospheric characterization of directly imaged exoplanets. It provides a coherent framework for spectral and photometric analysis which builds on publicly-available data and models from various resources. There are tools available for both grid retrievals and free retrievals with Bayesian inference, color-magnitude and color-color diagrams, spectral and photometric calibration, and synthetic photometry. The package has been released on PyPI and is actively developed and maintained on Github.
