Specsy: The Spectra Synthesis library

This library provides a set of tools for the analysis of astronomical spectra. This is the alpha-release.

Most of its functions assume an input with the LiMe formatting.

These are the features currently available:

Calculation of the logarithmic extinction calculation coefficient $c(H\beta)$ .
Calculation of the electron density from the $[SII]6716,6731\AA$ doublet via a Monte-Carlo sampling
Calculation of sulphur abundance using the calibration from Díaz et al (2022)

Installation

$\textsc{SpecSy}$ can be installed from its pip project page by running this command:
