A robust way to calculate line-of-sight velocities.

bettermoments

Measuring precise line-of-sight velocities from Doppler shifted lines is essential
when looking for small scale deviations indicative of, for example, embedded planets.
Do that with bettermoments.

Installation

To install, we recommend using pip:

pip install bettermoments

Usage

The easiest way to interface with bettermoments is through the command line. To use the default quadratic method simply use,

bettermoments path/to/cube.fits

while various other methods, discussed further in the documentation, can be accessed via the -method flag:

bettermoments path/to/cube.fits -method zeroth

A quick

bettermoments --help

will give a quick overview of what options there are.
