Observables (`obs`)#

The obs module contains functionality for calculating observables for stars and binaries in a cogsworth Population.

MIST bolometric corrections (`obs.mist`)#

The mist submodule contains functionality for interpolating MIST bolometric corrections to get magnitudes in various filters.

General observables (`obs.observables`)#

In the observables submodule you’ll find functions get_extinction() and get_photometry(), but there are also some helper functions for dealing with magnitudes.

Functions#

`get_log_g`(mass, radius)	Computes log of the surface gravity in cgs
`get_absolute_bol_mag`(lum)	Computes the absolute bolometric magnitude following IAU Resolution B2
`get_apparent_mag`(M_abs, distance)	Convert absolute magnitude to apparent magnitude
`get_absolute_mag`(m_app, distance)	Convert apparent magnitude to absolute magnitude
`add_mags`(*mags[, remove_nans])	Add any number of magnitudes
`get_extinction`(coords)	Calculates the visual extinction values for a set of coordinates
`get_photometry`(filters[, population, ...])	Computes photometry subject to dust extinction using the MIST boloemtric correction grid
