gemini_instruments.bhros package

class gemini_instruments.bhros.AstroDataBhros(provider)[source]

Bases: AstroDataGemini

central_wavelength(asMicrometers=False, asNanometers=False, asAngstroms=False)[source]

Returns the central wavelength in meters or the specified units

Parameters

asMicrometers (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in microns
asNanometers (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in nanometers
asAngstroms (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in Angstroms

Returns

The central wavelength setting

Return type

float

dec()[source]

Returns the Declination of the center of field in degrees. Since a fiber is used it coincides with the position of the target. For code re-used, use target_dec() if you really want the position of the target rather than the center of the field.

Returns: right ascension in degrees
Return type: float

disperser(stripID=False, pretty=False)[source]

Returns the name of the disperser. This is always ‘bHROS’

Parameters

stripID (bool) – Does nothing
pretty (bool) – Does nothing

Returns

The name of the disperser

Return type

str

ra()[source]

Returns the Right Ascension of the center of field in degrees. Since a fiber is used it coincides with the position of the target. For code re-used, use target_ra() if you really want the position of the target rather than the center of the field.

Returns: right ascension in degrees
Return type: float
