Spectral extraction tools for Hubble Space Telescope Grisms
Project description
HSTaXe
HSTaXe is a Python package to provide a uniform process to perform spectral extraction for the Hubble Space Telescope. HSTaXe supports all slitless spectroscopy modes provided by the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) and Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS).
The core hstaxe
is written in ANSI C and is highly cross-platform by
leveraging CFITSIO
, GSL
, and WCSLIB
, which have been successfully
employed under Linux, Solaris, and MacOS X.
HSTaXe is the successor to aXe, a similar package written on PyRAF/IRAF.
