Pix2Sky_Airy

class astropy.modeling.projections.Pix2Sky_Airy(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Pix2SkyProjection, Zenithal

Airy projection - pixel to sky.

Corresponds to the AIR projection in FITS WCS.

See Zenithal for a definition of the full transformation.

Parameters:
theta_bpython:float

The latitude \(\theta_b\) at which to minimize the error, in degrees. Default is 90°.

Attributes Documentation

param_names = ('theta_b',)

Names of the parameters that describe models of this type.

The parameters in this tuple are in the same order they should be passed in when initializing a model of a specific type. Some types of models, such as polynomial models, have a different number of parameters depending on some other property of the model, such as the degree.

When defining a custom model class the value of this attribute is automatically set by the Parameter attributes defined in the class body.
