Eclipse Populations

.. py:currentmodule:: vespa.populations

All physical eclipse models proposed as potential explanations for an obseved transit signal are defined as :class:`EclipsePopulation` objects. Currently implemented within vespa are :class:`EBPopulation`, :class:`HEBPopulation`, :class:`BEBPopulation`, and :class:`PlanetPopulation`.

Note

More subclasses are under development for other scenarios, in particular eclipses around specific observed stars.

Also see the documentation for :class:`vespa.stars.StarPopulation`, from which :class:`EclipsePopulation` derives.
