This repository offers a quick and convenient way to visualize light curves and spectra from eROSITA DR1. Additionally, it provides users with these data files in *txt format.
eROSITAViz enables users to explore the available eROSITA data with just the input of the target's name or coordinates.
To get started, follow these steps to download the repository and install the required dependencies:
$ git clone https://github.com/javiserna/eROSITAViz
$ cd eROSITAViz
$ python setup.py install
Once you have installed the dependencies, you can use the tool as follows:
If you have the target name (Only SIMBAD Names), run:
$ python erositaviz.py "Star_name"
Alternatively, if you have the coordinates RA, DEC, run:
$ python erositaviz.py "RA" "DEC"
This will display the eROSITA light curve and spectra for the specified target. For your record, the *txt data files and plots are saved in the "downloads" folder in the working directory. Enjoy exploring eROSITA data!
The star "AB Dor" is known to be a strong X-ray source, so an active star. The eROSITA products are:
