galaxy

Module containing the Galaxy class along with methods for working with filters and luminosity values

Functions

ang_size(phys_size, redshift)	Computes angular size in arcseconds given physical size in pc and redshift
lum_look_up_table(stellar_ages[, ...])	given stsci link and ages, returns likely (log) luminosities does this via residuals Here are some tables.
lum_lookup_filtered(stellar_ages, z, table_file)	Computes luminosities from galaxy spectrum data using the given filter.
lum_to_appmag_ab(lum, lum_dist, redshift)	Convert point luminosity to point absolute magnitude as detected
pivot_wavelength(filter_name, z)	Computes the pivot wavelength of the given filter blueshifted by z
unpack_pop_ii_data(path[, lum_scaling, ...])	Depends on the lookup table function.
zshifted_flux_jy(lum, lum_dis[, pivot_wav])	Computes redshifted flux in Jy
