Method Details

init(self, ID=None, photfile=None, plx=None, load_fits=False, label='', library='calspec')
(Constructor)

Initialize SED class.

Different ways to initialize:

1. If no previous data are saved:

>>> mysed = SED('HD129929')

2. If previous data exists:

>>> #mysed = SED(photfile='HD129929.phot') # will set ID with 'oname' field from SIMBAD
>>> #mysed = SED(ID='bla', photfile='HD129929.phot') # Sets custom ID

The ID variable is used internally to look up data, so it should be something SIMBAD understands and that designates the target.

Parameters:

plx - parallax (and error) of the object

Overrides: object.__init__
