Welcome to the arvi documentation

This site hosts the documentation for the Automated RV Inspector, or arvi for short.

This package sits alongside DACE to help with the analysis of radial velocity datasets.
It has been used extensively for data analysis of the ESPRESSO GTO program, and may be useful for other surveys and instruments.

Getting started

Install arvi using pip

pip install arvi

Then either directly import a given target

from arvi import HD1234

or create an instance of the RV class

from arvi import RV
s = RV('HD1234', instrument='ESPRESSO')

Why is it called 'arvi' ?

I thought saying "from arvi import RV" sounded funny.
Turns out it's actually quite a mouthful which always requires further explanation...
