class
GalaxySpectrumDEEP2.
GalaxySpectrumDEEP2
(catalog_entry, survey=<GalaxySurveyDEEP2.GalaxySurveyDEEP2 instance>, calibration=False, lineFits=True)[source] Loads the environement proper to the DEEP2 survey.
Two modes of operation : flux calibration or line fitting
Parameters: - catalog_entry – an entry of the deep2 catalog
- survey – survey python class
- calibration – if the class is loaded with intention of flux calibrating the DEEP2 data.
- lineFits – if the class is loaded with intention of fitting line fluxes on the DEEP2 spectra.
-
correct_telluric_abs
()[source]¶ Future function to correct the observed spectra from tellurica absorption bands. Not yet implemented.
-
fluxCal
()[source]¶ Performs the flux calibration of the spectrum by converting counts to flux units with an interpolation between the B and the I band borad band photometry.
