Tool to process and analyze the output of the chemistry codes ACE and PAC
Welcome the acepacutils (APU) repository. APU is software package that can be used to analyse and post-process the output of the chemical kinetics code (Agúndez et al., 2014). The code consists of a 1D chemical equilibrium solver (ACE) and a 1D and pseudo-2D chemical disequilibrium solver (PAC). With APU you can easily
- plot the convergence evolution, steady-state abundances, pressure-temperature structure, input stellar spectrum, and eddy diffusion (Kzz) profile of any ACE/PAC simulation,
- read-in the simulation parameters that were used (such as R_pl, M_pl, ...) in the directory of the ACE/PAC simulation
- post-process the output of a chemistry simulation into the radiative transfer code petitRADTRANS to generate a transmission spectrum.
APU is currently only installable by cloning this repository.
