KALEIDOSCOPE is a tool that utilizes synthetic photometry to generate optimal color-color diagrams using Root Median Absolute Deviation. Once users have chosen the desired colors, KALEIDOSCOPE will construct the color-color diagrams, photometric heatmaps, RMAD histograms, and a list of all RMAD calculations featuring both normal dwarfs and subdwarfs.
⬇️ PIP Installation ⬇️
- Go to the directory containing the KALEIDOSCOPE contents (e.g., "cd Documents/GitHub/WRAP").
- Run the command:
pip install -r requirements.txt
To open the application, type the following command into your terminal:
- For MacOS:
python3 KALEIDOSCOPE.py
- For Windows:
python3 .\KALEIDOSCOPE.py
How to Use KALEIDOSCOPE
- Select between the LOWZ, SAND, or ELF OWL Model.
- Input minimum/maximum temperature for model comparison (INT).
- LOWZ: 500-1600K
- SAND: 700-2700K
- ELF OWL: 600-2400K
- Input output name (STRING).
- Click Run
- Select "Yes" if the color-color diagram looks statistically true, select "No" if the color-color diagram looks statistically false.
