The Multimodal Universe: Enabling Large-Scale Machine Learning with 100TB of Astronomical Scientific Data
We present the MULTIMODAL UNIVERSE, a large-scale multimodal dataset of scientific astronomical data, compiled specifically to facilitate machine learning research.
Database Design for SpExoDisks: A Database & Web Portal for Spectra of Exoplanet-Forming Disks
Data access — or the availability of new and archival data for use by the larger community — is key for scientific advancement.
MARFA: An Effective Line-by-line Tool for Calculating Absorption Coefficients and Cross-sections in Planetary Atmospheres
We present MARFA (Molecular atmospheric Absorption with Rapid and Flexible Analysis) — a streamlined efficient tool for line-by-line calculation of atmospheric absorption signatures in the form of PT lookup tables, […]
easyCHEM: A Python Package For Calculating Chemical Equilibrium Abundances In Exoplanet Atmospheres
For modeling the spectra of exoplanets one must know their atmospheric composition. This is necessary because the abundance of molecules, atoms, ions and condensates is needed to construct the total […]
Gen TSO: A General JWST Simulator for Exoplanet Times-series Observations
Gen TSO is a noise calculator specifically tailored to simulate James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) time-series observations of exoplanets. Gen TSO enables the estimation of signal-to-noise ratios (S/N) for transit […]
NEMESISPY: A Python Package For Simulating And Retrieving Exoplanetary Spectra
NEMESISPY is a Python package developed to perform parametric atmospheric modelling and radiative transfer calculation for the retrievals of exoplanetary spectra.
Tricorder Tech: Rapid, Simultaneous Detection Of Multiple Bacteria Achieved With Handheld Sensor
Hear the words E. coli or salmonella and food poisoning comes to mind. Rapid detection of such bacteria is crucial in preventing outbreaks of foodborne illness. While the usual practice […]
FathomVerse Mobile Game Inspires A New Wave Of Ocean Exploration
Editor’s note: What would be interesting to see is an add-on to this cool MBARI app that allows you to imagine biota in the seas of Europa and Enceladus and […]
