copy()

interpolate(apertures)

Interpolate the SED to different apertures

interpolate_variable(wavelengths, apertures)

Interpolate the SED to a variable aperture as a function of wavelength. This method should be called with an interpolating function for aperture as a function of wavelength, in log10 space.

classmethod read(filename, unit_wav=Unit("micron"), unit_freq=Unit("Hz"), unit_flux=Unit("erg / (cm2 s)"), order='nu')

Read an SED from a FITS file.

Parameters:

filename: str

The name of the file to read the SED from.

unit_wav: `~astropy.units.Unit`, optional

The units to convert the wavelengths to.

unit_freq: `~astropy.units.Unit`, optional

The units to convert the frequency to.

unit_flux: `~astropy.units.Unit`, optional

The units to convert the flux to.

order: str, optional

Whether to sort the SED by increasing wavelength (wav) or frequency (‘nu’).

scale_to_av(av, law)

scale_to_distance(distance)

Returns the SED scaled to distance distance

Parameters:

distance : float

The distance in cm

Returns:

sed : SED

The SED, scaled to the new distance

write(filename, overwrite=False)

Write an SED to a FITS file.

Parameters:

filename: str

The name of the file to write the SED to.
