Hi,
Code has been fully updated.
It works offline as long as you don't try to use SIMBAD or GoogleMaps : use coordinates in config.ini.

As long as your database can be used with the Reference Star Finder, it can be adapted (I just added some columns and formatted it as real CSV).

Hey James,

Thanks for your feedback.

You just need Python3 (with some modules) to run it offline, from sources : https://github.com/serge-golovanow/SpectroStars
On Windows, I usually run Python scripts with MiniConda, or Windows Subsystem for Linux.

I'm slowly rewriting it : modular, object ...

Hi,

Instead of a referenced target name, you can now search by coordinates : PNV J06095740+1212255 or 08 10 14 22 12 16 will work !

Hey there,

I just updated my tool, it now has its own domain name : https://spectro-starfinder.net

I added charts of alt/az of target and reference star over time (1h before, 2h after observing time), some other information (if sptype is in PicklesDB, etc...). Charts are made with Matplotlib ...

Hi

MainName and ObjectType were added from SIMBAD in the database.

Hi
I started to make an interface for the output, in a table (with sortable columns), and good/bad/very bad points for each star :

Good points : separation<2°, in Miles database (-0.5badpoint)
Bad points : separation>10°, VMag<3, height<30°, ΔH>5°, E(B-V)>0.1, SpType=Be (+0.5badpoint)
Very bad ...

Hi
This week-end I made an improvement to speed up my web tool, it now takes only 2~3 seconds to show reference stars : https://www.sendell.com/spectrostars/

Hey !

The source code is available on GitHub : https://github.com/serge-golovanow/SpectroStars
You just need spectrostars.py and base.csv. Required packages are timezonefinder pytz numpy astropy astroquery joblib (numba will cause some trouble, I just removed it...). It was made on a Debian Buster ...

Hey guys,

As I recently used computers without Microsoft Office while doing spectroscopy, I had some difficulties to use the ReferenceStarsFinder . I just got an ODS version to run it in LibreOffice, but i started to build a tool with Python3 and AstroPy library, from the stars database (including ...

L' Observatoire de StVéran a rouvert au début du mois d'août, après de grands travaux d'extension de sa base vie, mais également l'ajout d'une nouvelle instrumentation. En plus du 62cm "historique" et de la chambre photographiquee on a en effet le plaisir d'y trouver un tout nouveau ...
