Welcome to the documentation of the astrotools!

This documentation describes all functionality implemented in the astrotools. The astrotools are a lightweight python library for physics of Ultra-high energy cosmic rays with particular focus on arrival direction tasks. We support functionalities in the following fields:

  • Coordinate transformations

  • Cosmic Ray Observables

  • Galactic magnetic field lensing

  • Setup simulations of arrival scenarios

  • Tools for the Pierre Auger Observatory

Repository:

The official repository of the astrotools is on the Gitlab server of the RWTH Aachen University (use this link for opening issues and pushing code): https://git.rwth-aachen.de/astro/astrotools

The astrotools are aslo mirrored to Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/MWirtz/astrotools
