BEAST-Fitting
Bayesian Extinction And Stellar Tool
Back in March 2022, we noticed that filter curves in the BEAST library are not the total filter throughputs and thus updated the filters.hd5 properly. Soon after we also updated...
When using gen_SimObs_from_sedgrid to generate synthetic input and output photometry, stars with input magnitudes near the detection limit (or faintward) are not generated. This is crucial in order to use...
For ACCESS BEAST runs, subdividing files based on `min_n_subfiles` can be problematic because, if `min_n_subfiles > 1`, then if a catalog bin has very few sources, there's a decent chance...
While trying to generate AST inputs by randomly sampling the physics model (using the --random_seds argument), I found what seems to be a bug in '~/beast/tools/run/make_ast_inputs.py'. Lines 220–223 define 'random_seds'...
I am getting this error, which seems to be related with the closed PR #727 and was supposedly fixed with that PR. I suspected the error resulted from a single...
Adding binaries to the stellar grid would significantly improve the fidelity of the model given than many (50%?) of point sources in galaxies are binaries. Currently, only single stars are...
beast.tools.create_background_density_map no longer works, due to changes in photutils since v1.2.0. When adding background (as per Standard Workflow docs) using: ``` python -m beast.tools.create_background_density_map background \ -catfile phot_catalog.fits --npix 15...
BEAST installation docs says to install BEAST via pip using `pip install beast` However, this installs BEAST 1.4, not BEAST 2.0 as expected by docs elsewhere.
The extinction curve relationship in the metal_small example in beast-examples needs updating to be: `extLaw = extinction.Generalized_RvFALaw(ALaw=extinction.Generalized_DustExt(curve='F19'), BLaw=extinction.Generalized_DustExt(curve='G03_SMCBar'))` As this is the recommended mixture model. Basically an update of the...
If one wants to plot the completeness for two or fewer parameters, when setting up the subplots [this line](https://github.com/BEAST-Fitting/beast/blob/b41c9c87db1258e8dabb3ad44005ffba871161fc/beast/plotting/plot_completeness.py#L203) causes an error since the returned grid spec may not have...
