sncosmo.Model

class sncosmo.Model(source, effects=None, effect_names=None, effect_frames=None)[source]

An observer-frame model, composed of a Source and zero or more effects.

Parameters:
sourceSource or str

The model for the spectral evolution of the source. If a string is given, it is used to retrieve a Source from the registry.

effectslist of PropagationEffect

List of PropagationEffect instances to add.

effect_nameslist of str

Names of effects (same length as effects). The names are used to label the parameters.

effect_frameslist of str

The frame that each effect is in (same length as effects). Must be one of {‘rest’, ‘obs’}.

Notes

The Source and PropagationEffects are copied upon instanciation.

Examples

>>> model = sncosmo.Model(source='hsiao')
__init__(source, effects=None, effect_names=None, effect_frames=None)[source]

Methods

__init__(source[, effects, effect_names, ...])

add_effect(effect, name, frame)

Add a PropagationEffect to the model.

bandflux(band, time[, zp, zpsys])

Flux through the given bandpass(es) at the given time(s).

bandfluxcov(band, time[, zp, zpsys])

Like bandflux(), but also returns model covariance on values.

bandmag(band, magsys, time)

Magnitude at the given time(s) through the given bandpass(es), and for the given magnitude system(s).

bandoverlap(band[, z])

Return True if model dispersion range fully overlaps the band.

color(band1, band2, magsys, time)

band1 - band2 color at the given time(s) through the given pair of bandpasses, and for the given magnitude system.

flux(time, wave)

The spectral flux density at the given time and wavelength values.

get(name)

Get parameter of the model by name.

maxtime()

Maximum observer-frame time at which the model is defined.

maxwave()

Maximum observer-frame wavelength of the model.

mintime()

Minimum observer-frame time at which the model is defined.

minwave()

Minimum observer-frame wavelength of the model.

set(**param_dict)

Set parameters of the model by name.

set_source_peakabsmag(absmag, band, magsys)

Set the amplitude of the source component of the model according to the desired absolute magnitude in the specified band.

set_source_peakmag(m, band, magsys[, sampling])

Set the amplitude of the source component of the model according to a peak apparent magnitude.

source_peakabsmag(band, magsys[, sampling, ...])

Peak absolute magnitude of the source in rest-frame bandpass.

source_peakmag(band, magsys[, sampling])

Peak apparent magnitude of source in a rest-frame bandpass.

update(param_dict)

Set parameters of the model from a dictionary.
