Reduce Gemini/GMOS long-slit spectra for The Best & Brightest Metal-Poor Stars
These scripts reduce Gemini/GMOS longslit spectra. The scripts are Python but the guts are actually IRAF (ew, I know).
-
Clone this repository:
git clone git@github.com:andycasey/gemini-gmos-reduction-script.git
-
Install Ureka from STScI.
-
Download all your Gemini science and calibration images into the
raw_data
directory. -
Run the preparation script:
python prepare.py
-
The preparation script will produce a
reduce_all.sh
script. Run it:source reduce_all.sh
The one-dimensional, wavelength-calibrated, extracted, stacked spectra will
live in reduced_data/<OBJECT_NAME>/<OBJECT_NAME>.fits
