redcross documentation

Welcome to the redcross documentation. This open-source python package is build for reduction and cross-correlation of high-resolution spectra for exoplanet atmospheres. It provides a flexible and fast object-oriented framework to test reduction routines, manipulate order-separated spectra and compute cross-correlation functions (CCFs). In addition, it is a useful guide to understand and visualise every step of the reduction process directly on the 2D-datacubes.

In the Tutorial section one can find how to get started with some examples with HARPS-N and GIANO data.

redcross has been used to find atomic and molecular species in optical wavelengths (Fe in WASP-189b with HARPS-N) and in the infra-red (CO in WASP-189b and WASP-33b with GIANO)
