Installing the Pandeia Engine requires a python environment with the dependencies listed above, a set of telescope-specific datafiles, and an optional (but highly recommended) second set of data files for additional spectral manipulation capabilities.

...

The engine can be installed with

Code Block
languagebash
pip install pandeia.engine==4.0

or for Roman:

Code Block
languagebash
pip install pandeia.engine==12024.79
Warning
We highly recommend installing into a fresh python environment, such as ones provided by the Anaconda Python distribution, to avoid problems. If you experience issues after installing the Pandeia Engine, consider starting again with a fresh python installation and a clean new set of data files.

...

Download and untar the files to a suitable location.

...

Note
titleInstalling both data packages

You CAN untar both sets of files to the same location and run calculations for Webb JWST and Roman (or use JWST bandpasses for normalization with Roman). The sole difference between the packages are the jwst/ and roman/ directories (and the VERSION_PSF file, to reflect that Roman PSFs were regenerated with WebbPSF 1.0). You can either untar the second telescope on top of the first one and overwrite any files when prompted, or copy just the second telescope's directory into the $pandeia_refdata location.

Recommended Data

Once untarred, the files will produce a directory tree of grp/redcat/trds. The pandeia.engine uses the contents of the trds directory.

Recommended Data

The rest of the Synphot datasets are optional and enable specific classes of template spectra.

  • Synphot 2 (Stellar and Galactic Model Files - brown2014, pickles, bz77)
  • Synphot 3 (Castelli & Kurucz 2004 Atlas  - ck04models)
  • Synphot 4 (Kurucz 1993 Atlas - k93models)
  • Synphot 5 (Phoenix models - phoenix)
  • Synphot 7 (JWST ETC Spectra - atmo2020, brown2019, comp_qso, swire, novae, stellar_pop, solsys, pne)

Once untarred, the files will produce a directory tree of grp/redcat/trds. The pandeia.engine uses the contents of the trds directory.

Environment variable: $PYSYN_CDBS must point to the trds directory (NOT grp)
