Abstract: |
The Goodman High Throughput Spectrograph (Goodman Spectrograph) is a highly
versatile instrument in operation at the SOAR Telescope on Cerro Pachón, Chile.
It is capable of doing low to mid-resolution spectroscopy in a range from 3200 Å
to 9000 Å. The data reduction pipeline is conceived as an easy-to-run software,
that can process an entire night worth of data by execution of a simple command,
with some arguments, from a terminal window. It is written almost entirely in
Python, following several Python standard conventions.
We aim towards using exclusively standard Python packages, such as Astropy and
Astropy-affiliated packages, while at the same time allowing for fast and
efficient computing.
In its present form the pipeline produces fully reduced, wavelength-calibrated
spectra. Flux calibration will be an add-on option for a later release. |
