sdapy.snerun.snobject.est_hostebv_with_colours

snobject.est_hostebv_with_colours(index=0, returnv=False, **kwargs)

Estimate host ebv with color comparison approach.

Parameters
hostebv_bandslist

two bands of the colour

hostebv_interpstr

which interpolation to calculate colour for host ebv estimation

tdbinfloat

threshold for binning

indexint

if multiple models available, which of them to be used

quantilelist

use 50 percentile as mean, and 1 sigma (68%% -> 16%% - 84%%) as errors

verbosebool

show process

clobberbool

Redo analysis

zpfloat

zeropoint to convert magnitude to flux. zp = 23.9 for micro Jansky to AB mag zp = 48.6 for ergs/s/cm2/Hz to AB mag e.g. mab = -2.5 * log10(fv[Jy]/3631) = -2.5 * log10(fv[mJy]) + 2.5*log10(3631*1e6)

snrtfloat

SNR threshold to distinguish detection/limit

returnvbool

if return the ebv, or store them in the class

Notes

  • For IIb/Ib/Ic, we compared colours at 10d post peak to templates from Stritzinger et al 2018, table 2,

at https://github.com/saberyoung/HAFFET/blob/master/sdapy/data/c10_template.txt.

  • For SLSNe, we compared colours at the peak phases to Chen at al 2022:

At the peak phases, the median observed color is close to zero.
