All of this is freeware – use as you wish. For Windows platforms only (sorry Linux, Mac).
Routine | Vers. | Date | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Astrotime | 42 | 2012-07-24 | A utility that converts epochs, calculates HJD, horizon coordinates, and more. Now does sunrise and set. |
Broadening Functions | 26 | 2013-11-25 | The Rucinski routines to derive RVs from stellar spectra. |
Clear Skies | 13a | 2005-11-11 | Saves Clear Sky Clock values to file. Source code using WebBrowser is useful example. |
EB Min | 23 | 2015-12-13 | Generates predictions of EB minima for your date, location, and local horizon. |
Minima | 27 | 2019-04-06 | Finds the precise times of minima for eclipsing binary (EB) data using 6 methods. |
B_Minima | 12 | 2005-05-18 | As above but handles huge files in batch mode (it searches for minima automatically). |
Period Search | 15f | 2006-07-12 | Finds periods for EBs based on portions of light curves. |
Phases | 14c | 2015-06-03 | Prints out, for a given night, and location, the phases of various eclipsing binaries for each hour. This is a very effective tool for planning your observing session. |
RaVeRe | 22c | 2012-07-24 | Does intermediate processing for spectral image files (and saves a ton of time over IRAF!!) |
Sp_Analysis | 14 | 2007-05-10 | Displays up to 10 spectra (with offsets adjustable), reads wavelengths under cursor, etc. [More features to come] |
Tables2Tex | 10g | 2005-10-31 | Converts text files with tables to Tex format. (It’s great for IBVS publications!) |
Tom_Cat | 17e | 2007-05-10 | Finds periods for EBs based on times of minima. (It’s hot!!) |
VHLimb | 1.1 | 1994-05-20 | Program by Dr. Dirk Terrell that interpolates the van Hamme limb darkening tables |
WDwint | 56a | 2009-06-27 | A front end interface for the Wilson-Devinney star modelling package. This upgrade has additional help and error traps. |
All of these programs are DOS-based. If there is interest in more modern Windows-based versions, please contact me at the address below and I’ll see what I can do.
Routine | Vers. | Date | Description |
---|---|---|---|
EQ_POT | 61 | A routine that plots equipotential and electric field lines for electrodes that you draw. | |
Funcs | 55 | 1992-05-02 | A number of physics functions (e.g., SHM, Planck, Maxwell, Fresnel diffraction, QM square well wave functions). |
[TRAJEC(TRAJEC26.zip) | 26 | 1992-06-23 | Plots real trajectories in air for a number of common projectiles (e.g., baseballs, ping-pong balls, etc.). The effect of wind is allowed for. |
