*Below you can find a set of models describing the atmospheric refraction and dispersion.*
**Contents:**
- atmosphericModel.py : Python model that can be used to calculate the atmospheric refraction and dispersion
- refractionModel.py : Python script that compares the output of the different rerfraction models.
- atmosphericModel : Python model that can be used to calculate the atmospheric refraction and dispersion, the main content of this repository.
- refractionModel.py : Python script that compares the output of the different refraction models.
Can be used as an example on how to use atmosphericModel.py
- 1976USSA.txt : Table with temperature, pressure, density and more as a function of altitude.
Values derived from the 1976 U.S. Standard Atmosphere.
- manual.pdf : Manual for using atmosphericModel.py
- atmospheric refraction example: jupyter notebook example
- [Tech note]...models.pdf : Tech note describing the models.
**On the contents of the atmosphericModel package**
The package contains the following files:
- 1976USSA.txt : Data file of the 1976 US Standard Atmosphere.
- ciddorModel.py : Contains the `Observatory()` class to calculate the refractive index of atmospheric air, using the Ciddor (1996) model.
- dispersionModels.py : Contains various atmospheric models that can be used to calculate the atmospheric dispersion
- examples.py : Contains several quick functions, e.g. to quickly calculate the refractive index.
- refractionModels.py : Contains various atmospheric models that can be used to calculate the atmospheric refraction
- refractivityModels.py : Contains various functions from literature to calculate the refractive index. Some examples of works included are Ciddor (1996), Barrell & Sears (1939), SLALIB, Owens (1967) and Edlen (1966).
