atomneb 0.2.2

Description

AtomNeb-py is a library written in Python for reading atomic data from AtomNeb, which is a database containing atomic data stored in the Flexible Image Transport System (FITS) file format for collisionally excited lines and recombination lines typically observed in spectra of ionized gaseous nebulae. The AtomNeb database were generated for use in pyEQUIB, proEQUIB, and other nebular spectral analysis tools.

Installation

• NumPy

• pandas

• Astropy

• To get this package with all the FITS file, you can simply use git command as follows:

  git clone https://github.com/atomneb/AtomNeb-py

• If you plan to use the recent O II recombination coefficients (Storey, Sochi and Bastin 2017), you need to unpack them:

  cd AtomNeb-py/atomic-data-rc/
  tar -xvf *.fits.tar.gz

To install the last version, all you should need to do is
