Software
Numerical simulators are fundamental tools for the design and optimisation of missions and instruments.
I am and I've been involved in the development of different simulators, some of them are now publicly available.
Generic instrument simulators
The Generic instrument independent point source simulator. It's been used to build the radiometric models in the following missions: ARIEL, EXCITE, Twinkle, Mauve.
ExoSim 2
Refactored version of the end-to-end time domain simulator for the exoplanet transit observations.
PAOS
PAOS, the Physical Optics Simulator, is a fast, modern, and reliable Python package for Physical Optics studies.
Mission dedicated tools
Alfnoor
Wrapper of ArielRad and TauREx to produce ARIEL simulated data-set of entire planetary populations.
Other tools
Rosseland and Planck opacity converter. It produces the two mean opacities from data.
Taurex-Emcee
A plugin for TauREx 3.1 that provides the Emcee sampler by Dan Foreman-Mackey & contributors for the retrieval.
AstrOmakase
Introducing AstrOmakase – an optimized Ubuntu setup designed specifically for astronomers and astrophysicists. Inspired by the Omakub project, AstrOmakase provides a comprehensive environment with essential tools for astronomical research. This tailored setup includes Anaconda, SAOImage DS9, Stellarium, Zotero, and more, ensuring that you can focus on your research without the hassle of manual configurations. Join the community to enhance and expand this package. Explore more on our GitHub repository.
Try it:
wget -qO- https://mug-n-ai.github.io/AstrOmakase/installer.sh | bash
TaskTide
TaskTide is a powerful journal manager designed to streamline the organization and management of tasks and notes directly within GitHub. By leveraging GitHub’s issue tracking and project management capabilities, TaskTide provides an efficient way for individuals and teams to track progress, manage to-dos, and collaborate on diverse projects.
TaskTide is documented here and available for Sponsors via GitHub.
Support My Work
Developing and maintaining projects like AstrOmakase and TaskTide requires significant time and dedication. These are initiatives I pursue in my free time, driven by a passion for creating tools that help researchers and developers.
If you find these projects valuable, you can support my efforts by offering me a coffee through GitHub Sponsors. Your support not only helps sustain the development of these tools but also motivates me to keep innovating.
Visit my new GitHub organisation, Mug-n-AI, to explore what I’m working on. Each mug of coffee fuels the creation of more impactful tools and projects for the community. Thank you for your support!
