Project description

aXe logo

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.
