Example Notebooks

The following are example notebooks written by HSTaXe users and developers. They are divided by their corresponding instrument.

Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3)

The aXe WFC3 cookbook data can be downloaded by cloning this repository: https://github.com/npirzkal/aXe_WFC3_Cookbook

  1. git clone https://github.com/npirzkal/aXe_WFC3_Cookbook.git
  2. Enter the aXe_WFC3_Cookbook directory and work through aXe_WFC3_Cookbook.ipynb within the conda environment created as part of the hstaxe installation.

Advanced Camera for Surveys

The aXe ACS cookbook and associated data can be downloaded from the following area: https://stsci.box.com/s/eo98zjtyccnoq7z73akfrx94jog3pg7j

aXe Cookbook Examples

There are also a couple simple test scripts in hstaxe/tests that can be run against the example data in the aXe cookbook:

  • `run_acs_cookbook.py`: runs basic aXe against ACS data
  • `run_cookbook.py`: runs basic aXe against WFC3 data from the cookbook
  • `run_cookbook_part2.py`: runs axedrizzle against WFC3 data from the cookbook

Other Uses of aXe

aXe has been used successfully in several large science programs, such as GRAPES (ACS/WFC, [PIRZKAL1] ) and PEARS (ACS/WFC, [PIRZKAL2] ). The aXe software was central in extracting ACS/G800L and, using a customized version of aXe, NICMOS/G141 data within the corresponding Hubble Legacy Archive (HLA) projects (see [FREUDLING] and [KUMMEL4]).
