Optical stellar spectroscopy

I. Reduction of raw spectra

to be updated.

II. Deriving stellar parameters

  1. Warm-up — some background knowledge about stellar spectra
  2. Doppler effect — measuring stellar radial velocity
  3. Teff, logg & [M/H] — fundamental stellar atmospheric parameters
  4. v sini profile
  5. Basics
    • Linux + Anaconda3 + Jupyter-notebook/Jupyter-Lab
    • Numerical computing (cross-correlation, non-linear regression, etc)
  6. Required packages: laspec & astroslam
    • pip install laspec or pip install -U git+git://github.com/hypergravity/laspec
    • pip install astroslam or pip install -U git+git://github.com/hypergravity/astroslam
