| Abstract: |
AAOmega is a dual-beam, bench-mounted spectrograph of the 3.9 m
Anglo-Australian Telescope. No shortage of tools exists for plotting astronomical spectra like those generated by AAOmega. Perl code was developed here however, for
metaprogramming TikZ spectral plots, styled to be visually harmonious with LaTeX
documents. From a functional standpoint, the Perl software co-plots FITS data from
both arms (red and blue), and autogenerates axis tick marks and labels customised to
data bounds. Automatic plot adaptation was not only to flux, but also to wavelength,
automating visualization across AAOmega’s configurable wavelength range. |
