SuperMAGE: Superb masses from gas kinematics

While gas dynamical supermassive black hole mass measurement is SuperMAGE's primary use case (and the original meaning of Super in its name), as a modular simulator, you can use any of its modules for any purpose. Broadly speaking, if you work with spectral cubes and/or rotation curves in galaxies, you might find SuperMAGE useful for your work. SuperMAGE is designed to interface with the gravitational lensing software Caustics, so you can use it to model lensed galaxies as well.

Documentation

Tutorial notebooks (getting started, mass models, cloud-based simulation, visibilities, end-to-end fitting, lensed cubes) and a full API reference live in docs/source/. Build them locally with

pip install -r docs/requirements.txt
jupyter-book build docs/source/

NOTE: Active development. Non-functioning and untested code may occur.
