Code collaboration for the Galaxy Group at Haverford College

Example Codes Either Written to help, or output of student papers

  • basic_stats.py -- Various useful statistics functions from Brooke Simmons. Includes a function to calculate proper errors on fractions, and to match two distributions (e.g. by mass).

  • Fitsinput_simpleplots.ipynb -- Example code for how to read in a fits file, slice the data on selection from a column, make basic histograms and scatter plots. Written for mangaHIall.fits file... but should be easily modified to any .fits table.

  • FourPanelGalaxyPlot.ipynb -- Code to make a four panel plot for a MaNGA galaxy, showing the gri image and three other MaNGA maps. https://github.com/karenlmasters/HaverfordGalaxyGroup/blob/main/FourPanelGalaxyPlot.ipynb

  • HI-MassFraction-StellarMassPlot.ipynb -- Simplified from above - just makes the HI mass fraction against stellar mass plot.

  • HIMaNGA_First_Paper_EmilyHarrington_KLM.ipynb -- Code to make plots in Masters et al. 2019 on HI-MaNGA. Mostly written by Emily Harrington BMC '20.

  • KLM_RRL_PAandLength_Notebook.ipynb -- Rachel Langgin BMC'23 uploaded her code to measure bar position angles from GZ:3D masks

  • Metallicity_BinnedStatisticOverSamples.ipynb -- sample selection for spiral galaxies binned into arm winding level, loops over all galaxies in a sample and saves a metallicity trend for each. From Emmy Wisz BMC'23 senior thesis

  • Metallicity_MassBinning_LinearRegressionFits_FitsofFits.ipynb -- mass binning within subsamples, fitting a straight line to trends. From Emmy Wisz '23 senior thesis.

  • mpl_style.py -- Style file for Matplotlib which may be useful (from Coleman Krawcyzk)

  • Pipe3D_access.ipynb -- example notebook to access some Pipe3D analysis of MaNGA data (by KLM)

  • RadialGradientsMaNGAEditedMar20.ipynb -- create a radial metallicity trend for one or multiple galaxies. Originally from KLM, minor changes by Emmy Wisz.

  • VAC_GZ3D_tutorial_KLMedits.ipynb -- edits to the GZ3D VAC tutorial in Marvin so that it works on Sciserver.org (by KLM)

  • Arm_Interarm_Tutorial.ipynb -- tutorial to learn how to calculate excess in stellar mass density of spiral galaxy arms. By Maša Kilibarda '26 with edits by KLM
