scousepy¶

Multi-component spectral line decomposition with scousepy. scousepy is a package for the analysis of spectral line data. A detailed description of the method (and the original IDL version of the code) can be found in Henshaw et al. 2016. In the following pages you will find a brief introduction to the method as well as a tutorial. The source code is available on GitHub and comments and contributions are very welcome.
