Pieces of utility python code that astronomers may find useful
- astro.py: photometry constants, reddening and extinction, Milky Way rotation curve, flux calibration
- get_data.py: fetch catalogue data from Vizier based on ID or coordinates
- powspec_rebin.py: rebin and fit power spectra (i.e., timing)
- bibtex.py: fetch bibliographic information from ADS
- redclump.py: find reddening versus distance using the red clump stars in IR catalogue photometry
- star_fit.py: simple image photometry
- xspecs.py: simple X-ray spectral bits
- CMD.py: cross-calibrate images for making photometry charts (CCD, CMD)
- Kedge_new.py: fit photoelectic edges to high-res X-ray spectra
- sigism.py: X-ray extinction function
- star_phot.py: see star classifier project
- ucm.py: access ultracam binary files (by Tom Marsh)
