The Joker is a custom Monte Carlo sampler for generating posterior samplings over Keplerian orbital parameters for two-body systems. This package provides a pipeline for running The Joker on large datasets of homogenous radial velocity data. Early versions of this tool were used to analyze data from the APOGEE surveys, leading to the discovery of many thousands of binary star systems (Price-Whelan et al. 2018, Price-Whelan et al. 2020).
This package is not available via pip, but you can pip install the latest development version with:
pip install git+https://github.com/adrn/hq
Coming soon!
