Does it support coordinate transformations?

Absolutely. It handles conversions between systems like ICRS, Galactic, and AltAz, including observer-dependent transformations.

What is the Astropy skill for Claude?

It's a specialized capability that enables Claude to provide expert assistance with the Astropy Python library for astronomical research and data analysis.

Is it compatible with cosmological models?

Yes, it includes built-in support for standard cosmologies like Planck18 and WMAP9 for distance and age calculations.

Can this skill help with FITS file headers?

Yes, Claude can use this skill to read, write, and modify FITS Header Data Units (HDUs), including keywords, comments, and history.

How does it handle units?

It leverages the astropy.units module to ensure dimensional consistency and perform conversions between physical quantities like parsecs, kilometers, and Janskys.

数据科学与机器学习

Simplifies astronomical data analysis and astrophysical calculations using the comprehensive Astropy Python library.

关于

Astropy is the essential toolkit for astronomy and astrophysics in Python, providing a unified framework for celestial coordinate transformations, physical unit conversions, and FITS file manipulation. This skill empowers Claude to assist researchers and developers with complex astronomical tasks such as cosmological distance calculations, precise time handling across multiple scales, and processing large tabular datasets. By integrating Astropy's core capabilities, Claude can provide production-ready code for everything from simple unit conversions to advanced world coordinate system (WCS) transformations and image processing.
