Contain all the data and model level information necessary to run a petitRADTRANS retrieval.

The name of the class will be used to name outputs. This class is passed to the Retrieval, which runs the actual pymultinest retrieval and produces the outputs.

The general usage of this class is to define it, add the parameters and their priors, add the opacity sources, the data together with a model for each dataset, and then configure a few plotting arguments.

Args:
retrieval_namestr

Name of this retrieval. Make it informative so that you can keep track of the outputs!

run_modestr

Can be either ‘retrieval’, which runs the retrieval normally using pymultinest, or ‘evaluate’, which produces plots from the best fit parameters stored in the output post_equal_weights file.

adaptive_mesh_refinementbool

Use an adaptive high resolution pressure grid around the location of cloud condensation. This will increase the size of the pressure grid by a constant factor that can be adjusted in the setup_pres function.

scattering_in_emissionbool

If using emission spectra, turn scattering on or off.

pressuresnumpy.array

A log-spaced array of pressures over which to retrieve. 100 points is standard, between 10^-6 and 10^3.

This function adds a Parameter (see parameter.py) to the dictionary of parameters. A Parameter has a name and a boolean parameter to set whether it is a free or fixed parameter during the retrieval. In addition, a value can be set, or a prior function can be given that transforms a random variable in [0,1] to the physical dimensions of the Parameter.

Args:

The name of the parameter. Must match the name used in the model function for the retrieval.

freebool

True if the parameter is a free parameter in the retrieval, false if it is fixed.

valuefloat

The value of the parameter in the units used by the model function.

transform_prior_cube_coordinatemethod

A function that transforms the unit interval to the physical units of the parameter. Typically given as a lambda function.

Set RadTrans.line_species

This function adds a list of species to the pRT object that will define the line opacities of the model. The values in the list are strings, with the names matching the pRT opacity names, which vary between the c-k line opacities and the line-by-line opacities.

NOTE: As of pRT version 2.4.9, the behaviour of this function has changed. In previous versions the abundance limits were set from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to (free_mass_fraction_limits[0] + free_mass_fraction_limits[1]). This has been changed so that the limits of the prior range are from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to free_mass_fraction_limits[1] (ie the actual boundaries).

Args:
line_speciesList(str)

The list of species to include in the retrieval

use_equilibrium_chemistrybool

If false, the retrieval should use free chemistry, and Parameters for the abundance of each species in the line_species will be added to the retrieval. Otherwise, equilibrium chemistry will be used. If you need fine control species, use the add_line_species and set up each species individually.

free_mass_fraction_limitsTuple(float,float)

If free is True, this sets the boundaries of the uniform prior that will be applied for each species in line_species. The range of the prior goes from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to free_mass_fraction_limits[1]. The abundance limits must be given in log10 units of the mass fraction.

In previous versions the abundance limits were set from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to (free_mass_fraction_limits[0] + free_mass_fraction_limits[1]). This has been changed so that the limits of the prior range are from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to free_mass_fraction_limits[1] (ie the actual boundaries).

add_pressure_varying_line_species(species: str, mode: str = 'linear', pressure_spacing: str = 'relative', n_nodes: int = 3, free_mass_fraction_limits: tuple[float, float] = (-7.0, 0.0), log_pressure_range_prior: tuple[float, float] = (0, 9), fixed_pressure_node_species: str | None = None, abund_lim=_UNSET) None#

This function adds a single species to the Radtrans object that will define the line opacities of the model. The name must match the pRT opacity name, which vary between the c-k line opacities and the line-by-line opacities. This species will have and abundance that varies with pressure, defined by the retrieved abundance at each of the provided abundance nodes.

The number of abundance nodes to use in the retrieval, including top and bottom nodes.

free_mass_fraction_limitsTuple(float,float)

If free is True, this sets the boundaries of the uniform prior that will be applied the species given. The range of the prior goes from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to free_mass_fraction_limits[1] The abundance limits must be given in log10 units of the mass fraction.

add_cloud_species(species: str, use_equilibrium_chemistry: bool = True, free_mass_fraction_limits: tuple[float, float] = (-3.5, 1.5), cloud_base_pressure_limits: tuple[float, float] | None = None, equilbrium_mass_fraction_scaling_factor: tuple[float, float] | None = None, fixed_mass_fraction_value: float | None = None, fixed_base_pressure_value: float | None = None, eq=_UNSET, abund_lim=_UNSET, p_base_lim=_UNSET, scaling_factor=_UNSET, fixed_abund=_UNSET, fixed_base=_UNSET) None#

This function adds a single cloud species to the list of species. Optionally, it will add parameters to allow for a retrieval using an ackermann-marley model. If an equilibrium condensation model is used in th retrieval model function (use_equilibrium_chemistry=True), then a parameter is added that scales the equilibrium cloud abundance, as in Molliere (2020). If eq is false, two parameters are added, the cloud abundnace and the cloud base pressure. The limits set the prior ranges, both on a log scale.

NOTE: As of pRT version 2.4.9, the behaviour of this function has changed. In previous versions the abundance limits were set from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to (free_mass_fraction_limits[0] + free_mass_fraction_limits[1]). This has been changed so that the limits of the prior range are from free_mass_fraction_limits[0] to free_mass_fraction_limits[1] (ie the actual boundaries). The same is true for PBase_lim.

Args:
speciesstr

Name of the pRT cloud species, including the cloud shape tag.

use_equilibrium_chemistrybool

Does the retrieval model use an equilibrium cloud model. This restricts the available species!

free_mass_fraction_limitstuple(float,float)

If use_equilibrium_chemistry is True, this sets the prior range on the log mass fraction of the cloud species relative to the equilibrium abundance, with a typical range being (-3.5, 1.5). If use_equilibrium_chemistry is False, this sets the prior range on the actual log mass fraction abundance of the cloud species, with a typical range being (-5.0, 0.0). The abundance limits must be given in log10 units of the mass fraction.

cloud_base_pressure_limitstuple(float,float)

Only used if not using an equilibrium model. Sets the prior range on the log10 of the cloud base pressure in bar, e.g. (-3, 3). If None, no cloud base pressure parameter is added.

equilbrium_mass_fraction_scaling_factortuple(float,float)

If provided, adds a free parameter eq_scaling_{cloud_name} that scales the equilibrium condensate mass fraction. The tuple defines the (lower, upper) bounds of the uniform prior on this scaling factor in log10 space, e.g. (-3.0, 1.0). Only used when use_equilibrium_chemistry is True. If None, no scaling parameter is added.

fixed_mass_fraction_valueOptional(float)

A vertically constant log mass fraction abundance for the cloud species. If set, this will not be a free parameter in the retrieval. Only compatible with non-equilibrium clouds.

fixed_base_pressure_valueOptional(float)

The log cloud base pressure. If set, fixes this parameter to a constant value, and it will not be a free parameter in the retrieval. Only compatible with non-equilibrium clouds. Not yet compatible with most built in pRT models.
