Helpers for using Padova isochrones.

Project description

Padova is a small python package for working with the so-called Padova evolutionary tracks produced by Girardi and collaborators. Padova is compatible with the Astropy project.

Take a look at this `Jupyter notebook <http://nbviewer.ipython.org/github/jonathansick/padova/blob/master/notebooks/demo.ipynb>`_ to see what Padova can do.

Of course, please use this project responsibly. Don’t abuse the CMD servers.

Features

  • Simple interfaces to obtain either single isochrones or grids of isochrones.

  • Validation of settings before requesting data from the CMD servers.

  • Caching of requests so you don’t hit the CMD servers when you ask for an isochrone set you already have.

  • Isochrones are provided as Astropy tables with metadata.

Dependencies

  • numpy

  • Astropy

  • Requests

  • pytoml

  • setuptools

Tests

You can run tests via:

python setup.py test

The tests are located in padova/tests/.

Credits

  • Padova provides data from the CMD web site, which is a produce of Leo Girardi and collaborators.

  • Padova takes inspiration from ezpadova by Morgan Fouesneau.
