_get_pickles_curve

simcado.source._get_pickles_curve(spec_type, cat=None, verbose=False)[source]

Returns the emission curve for a single or list of spec_type, normalised to 5556A

Parameters
spec_typestr, list

The single (or list) of spectral types (i.e. “A0V” or [“K5III”, “B5I”])

Returns
lamnp.array
lamnp.array

a single np.ndarray for the wavelength bins of the spectrum,

valnp.array (list)
