webbpsf_ext.spectra.mass_sensitivity_table(filt, dist=10, extrapolate=True, lfile=None, age_arr=None, save=True, save_dir=None, return_tbl=False, **kwargs)[source]

Generate a table of mass sensitivities for a given filter

Interpolate mass and brightnesses of BEX evolutionary tracks. Creates a table with first column of magnitudes, second column is log10(Jy), and subsequent columns are log10(Mass) for each age in Myr.

Parameters:

  • filt (str) – Name of filter

  • dist (float) – Distance in parsecs

  • extrapolate (bool) – If True, extrapolate to higher masses using COND models as well as lower masses using a lower order polynomial fit.

  • lfile (str) – Filename of Linder evolutionary tracks. If None, then use BEX_evol_mags_-3_MH_0.00.dat (warm start HELIOS grid).

  • age_arr (array_like) – Array of ages in Myr. If None, then defualts to [1,2,…,20] Myr.

  • save (bool) – Save table to file.

  • save_dir (str) – Directory to save table. If None, then save to current directory.

  • return_tbl (bool) – Return astropy table object
