AS301: Data analysis in Astronomy

Using Python

Level: Advanced; Pre-requisites: None

Everyday, astronomers come up with enormous data which is quite hard to handle. Data Analysis and reduction is one key task in everyday astronomy. Upon completion of this module, you will know how to handle astronomical data, analyze them and work with them. Also, upon completetion about 2 or 3 students will be short listed for projects.

The course will cover the required features of Python, the different libraries, web scrapping, image reduction of optical observations, transient astronomy, space-time coordinates and differential equations.
