Photometric Constraints on SNe Models with LSST¶
   |
This documentation provides a technical overview for the comparison of CMFGEN supernova models against observations taken by the Carnegie Supernova Project.
Using This Documentation¶
The Project Notes section outlines the goals, technical decisions, and research notes taken by the research team. The Getting Started guides outline the installation of the project’s source code and how to reproduce the scientific results. API documentation for the project’s source code is broken down into two sections. The Backend Utilities section documents modules that are used to manipulate data across the various stages of the analysis. The Science Modules section documents Python modules used to calculate and tabulate the scientific deliverables of this project.
