Bases: pytmosph3r.chemistry.chemistry.Chemistry

Use ACE chemistry on each vertical column. See taurex model (https://taurex3-public.readthedocs.io/en/latest/user/taurex/chemistry.html). Agúndez, M., Venot, O., Iro, N., et al. 2012, AandA, 548,A73

Parameters:

  • metallicity (float) – Stellar metallicity in solar units

  • co_ratio (float) – C/O ratio

inputs()[source]
build(atmosphere)[source]

General function that will be called to compute the chemistry after atmosphere has been initialized. It iterates over gases by calling compute_vmr() on each gas.

Parameters:

  • atmosphere (AltitudeAtmosphere) – Altitude-based atmosphere in which to compute the volume mixing ratios of gases.

  • input_atmosphere (InputAtmosphere, optional) – Input atmosphere if you need it (with input mix_ratios for example).
