Gaia Variables Toolkit

Gaia utilities toolkit for variable events.

Tools

Only Gaia DR3 source ID is required.

import gaia_toolkit as gt
SOURCE_ID: int = 6059400613544951552
event: GaiaEvent = gt.GaiaEvent(SOURCE_ID)

event.fetch_dr3_photometry()

Photometry can be then accessed as a Pandas DataFrame:

event.photometry

as well as individual band:

event.band_photometry("G")

and can be automatically plotted:

# bands is an optional argument - when it's not passed, all passbands are plotted
event.plot_photometry(bands=["G"])

Can be accessed in a similar way to photometry, returning a dictionary of astroPy Quantities:

event.fetch_gaia_archive_data()
event.fiveparam_fit

as well as individual values, but always make note of the units used:

event.fiveparam_fit_values
