[ascl:1702.005] JetCurry: Modeling 3D geometry of AGN jets from 2D images
Kosak, Katie; Li, KunYang; Avachat, Sayali S.; Perlman, Eric S.
Written in Python, JetCurry models the 3D geometry of jets from 2-D images. JetCurry requires NumPy and SciPy and incorporates emcee (ascl:1303.002) and AstroPy (ascl:1304.002), and optionally uses VPython. From a defined initial part of the jet that serves as a reference point, JetCurry finds the position of highest flux within a bin of data in the image matrix and fits along the x axis for the general location of the bends in the jet. A spline fitting is used to smooth out the resulted jet stream.
