Data & Tutorials
Presentations, notebooks , etc.
Legacy Tutorial
- Jupyter notebooks allowing to reproduce the in-house analysis for planet c
- This data set is from the actual challenge
- Make sure you switch to the analysis branch of the Github repo
- This analysis will be detailed in our upcoming Zimmerman et al. paper
Previous Tutorials
May 2020 Update:
The Tutorial material (notebooks and data) is now in a Github Repo which you can clone or download.
It is based on the second rehearsal data set (not the actual challenge data).
All paths are relative in that folder to simplify things, run the notebooks on your local machine immediately
All notebooks are coded in Jupyter Python and require rather standard packages except for the starshade image analysis demo script (SS_Photometry_Tutorial.m) written in MatLab
The hlc_VIP_demo.ipynb - Demo application of the VIP high-contrast image analysis package - is more difficult to get to work, you may want to start with a fresh environment.
A more detailed description on how to use this repo is available in the README.

Orbital fitting with orbitize!
Presented by Junellie Gonzalez Quiles
orbitize!/OFTI
OFTI (Orbits For The Impatient) is an orbit-generating algorithm designed specifically to handle data covering short fractions of long-period exoplanets (Blunt et al. 2017). Here we go through steps of using OFTI within orbitize!

Presented (remotely) by Sergi Hildebrandt
New! HLC Quick-Look Photometry & Flux Ratio Calibration
Demo prepared by Neil Zimmerman (not included in the videos)
We realized that many participants encountered trouble to provide flux ratios in the range we expected them to be: exoplanets in reflected light! To help participants revise their photometry, Neil had come up with this demo.

New! Starshade Photometry
Demo prepared by Sergi Hildebrandt (not included in the video)
This demo derives the flux ratios of the same astronomical scenario as with the HLC before, but for the Starshade.
