Simulate direct imaging observations of exoplanets with WFIRST-CGI

  • Models directory contains grids of computed geometric albedo models
  • WFIRST_SIM directory contains tools useful for calculating signal to noise ratios, simulating mock observations, and carrying out retrievals on those "observations"
  • Robinson2016 contains a python version of some of the calculations done in Robinson et al. 2016. He has an IDL version on GitHub here: https://github.com/tdrobinson/coronagraph_noise
