spleaf.fenrir.SpotsLatDist#

class spleaf.fenrir.SpotsLatDist(nharm, ndelta, weight, brightening=False)#

FENRIR model with spots/faculae appearing randomly on the star, with the spots’ latitude following an arbitrary distribution.

The integrals on the latitude’s distibution are performed numerically.

Parameters:
nharmint

Number of harmonics in the Fourier decomposition.

ndeltaint

Number of latitude values for the integrals.

weightfunction

Weight function describing the spots’ latitude distribution.

brighteningbool

Whether or not a brightening effect should be included in the model (for faculae or mixtures of faculae and spots).

Methods

compute_Fourier(sig_rv_phot, sig_rv_cb, ...)

Compute the Fourier decomposition of the kernel.

kernel(series_index, decay_kernel, P, ...[, ...])

Generate a S+LEAF kernel corresponding to this FENRIR model, to be included in a covariance matrix (spleaf.cov.Cov).
