# Astronomy Spectroscopic Analysis Toolkit

This repository contains a collection of Python functions for analyzing astronomical data. The functions provided here focus on spectral analysis and calculations related to galaxy properties. Below is an overview of the functionalities provided by this toolkit.

## Features

### Spectrum Analysis

1. **Read Spectrum**: Read 1D spectra from FITS files using `specutils`.
2. **Load 2D Spectrum**: Load 2D spectra from FITS files.
3. **Deredshift Spectrum**: De-redshift the spectrum to its rest frame.
4. **Create Rest-frame Spectrum**: Generate a rest-frame spectrum.
5. **Measure UV Slope (Beta)**: Calculate the UV slope beta of the spectrum.
6. **Measure UV Slope with Bootstrapping**: Estimate UV slope beta with bootstrapping for error estimation.
7. **Measure Equivalent Width (EW)**: Compute the equivalent width of a spectral line.

### Photometric Analysis

1. **Calculate 1500 Magnitude**: Determine the 1500 magnitude of a spectrum given its redshift.

### Nebular Line Analysis

1. **Calculate Intrinsic Ratios**: Compute intrinsic ratios between H lines.
2. **Calculate Reddening Curves**: Determine reddening curves at wavelengths of interest, assuming the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) extinction law.
3. **Calculate E(B-V)**: Estimate the reddening (E(B-V)) based on observed H line fluxes.
4. **Calculate Lyman-alpha Escape Fraction**: Determine the Lyman-alpha escape fraction.
5. **Calculate Ionizing Photon Production Efficiency (xi_ion)**: Compute the ionizing photon production efficiency.
