[ascl:2504.002] PBjam: Automating asteroseismology of solar-like oscillators
Nielsen, M. B.; Davies, G. R.; Ball, W. H.; Lyttle, A. J.; Li, T.; Hall, O. J.; Chaplin, W. J.; Gaulme, P.; Carboneau, L.; Ong, J. M. J.; García, R. A.; Mosser, B.; Roxburgh, I. W.; Corsaro, E.; Benomar, O.; Moya, A.; Lund, M. N.; Hatt, E.; Jones, B. P.; Logue, M.
PBjam analyzes the oscillation spectra of solar-like oscillators. The code performs two main tasks: identifying a set of modes of interest in a spectrum of oscillations, and accurately modeling those modes to measure their frequencies. Mode identification relies on a large set of previous observations of the model parameters, which are then used to construct a prior distribution to inform the sampling. PJjam models the modes using a nested sampling or MCMC algorithm, where Lorentzian profiles are fit to each of the identified modes.
[ascl:2401.001] tomso: TOols for Models of Stars and their Oscillations
Ball, Warrick H.
tomso loads and saves input and output files for and from stellar evolution and oscillation codes. The functions are bundled together in modules that correspond with a specific stellar evolution code, stellar oscillation code, or file format. tomso supports the FGONG format and various input/output files for ADIPLS (ascl:1109.002), GYRE (ascl:1308.010), MESA (ascl:1010.083), and STARS (ascl:1107.008). tomso's main purpose is to provide a compact interface for manipulating input and output data in these formats and simplify research that uses them.
