# WellFit

Transit modeling with [`starry`](https://rodluger.github.io/starry/) and [`celerite`](https://celerite.readthedocs.io/en/stable/), capitalizing on gradients. Under development.

### notebooks

This folder contains a few notebooks about fitting different transit models that we've collected over the year. They are there for inspiration and for basic examples. They will be deleted before the stable release of wellfit.

### Installation

While `wellfit` is under development, you can install it by running the following in a terminal

```
git clone https://github.com/christinahedges/wellfit.git
cd wellfit
pip install -e .
```

This will install in "development" mode, so you can edit the wellfit code and your changes will automatically run.

Tools to find out what we should characterize!

### Assumptions

* Assume all planets have atmospheres (this is likely true for most planets)
* Assume no planets have clouds or hazes (this is unlikely)
* Assume a circular orbit (this is largely true)
* Assume HST WFC3 for followup instrument (this is reasonable)
* Assume 1 second exposure time with a scan rate of 0.15s (this could be improved for each target)
* Assume HST WFC3 has no saturation limit. (This could be acheived with scanning)
* Assume one observation is taken (this is an underestimate)
* Assume 50 pixels of the detector are illuminated for the scan (this is reasonable)
* Assume 5 scale heights of atmsophere (this is an approximation)
* Assume atmosphere is purely hyrdogen (this is likely to be wrong for most small planets)
* Assume atmosphere is entirely opaque in the WFC3 bandpass (this is an overestimate)
* Assume starspot free (this is unlikely)
* Where masses are unknown, assume mass-radius relation from Weiss 2014 (this is an approximation)
* Assume 2MASS photometry is correct (this is reasonable)
* Assume planets have no reflection, all light us absorbed

All told, this will provide an overestimate of the signal or the 'best case' scenario.
