synthesizer.components.stellar

A module defining general functionality for particle and parametric stars.

This should never be directly instantiated. Instead it is the parent class for particle.Stars and parametric.Stars and contains attributes and methods common between them. StarsComponent is a child class of Component.

Classes

class synthesizer.components.stellar.StarsComponent(ages, metallicities, **kwargs)

The parent class for stellar components of a galaxy.

This class contains the attributes and spectra creation methods which are common to both parametric and particle stellar components.

This should never be instantiated directly.

ages

The age of each stellar particle/bin (particle/parametric).

Type:

Quantity

metallicities

The metallicity of each stellar particle/bin (particle/parametric).

Type:

Quantity

property log10ages

Return stellar particle ages in log (base 10).

Returns:

log10ages (array)

log10 stellar ages

property log10metallicities

Return stellar particle metallicities in log (base 10).

Returns:

log10metallicities (array)

log10 stellar metallicities
