An Observatory Control System for the PANOPTES citizen-science project designed to help find transiting exoplanets! 🔭 🌠

This python package allows the user to retrieve the wavefront aberrations in an optical system using the powerful tool of Phase Diversity, and use the PSF (MTF) to restore aberrated data.

Astronomical observatory control system

Python package for simulating interferometric visibilities using the Flatiron Institute Non-Uniform Fast Fourier Transform (finufft)

Python version of the FluxCompensator described in Koepferl & Robitaille (ApJ, 2017)

Fast matrix-based visibility simulator

Differentiable Simulation of NSB in IACTs

PANOTPES Observatory Control Software for a telescope build using a moxa UC-8112A-ME series arm processor.

...

For a solar system object and a period of time, get the object's ephemerides from JPL Horizons, and display them as a (complex) plot showing the visibility and observability of the object.

An automated pipeline to identify interesting transients from the Transient Name Server (TNS) and request observations of them with the Liverpool Telescope and its MOPTOP instrument for the PEPPER Survey.

Atmospheric Impact Simulation for CMB ground-based experiments

A package to determine observability of an astronomical object using telescope specifications.

A mockup of the operational scripts onboard the JWST

For a solar system object and a period of time, get the object's ephemerides from JPL Horizon, and generate a DSS finding chart for each night
