spectral_slab¶
- specutils.manipulation.spectral_slab(spectrum, lower, upper)[source]¶
Extract a slab from the input
Spectrum1D
defined by the lower and upper bounds defined by theregion
instance. The extracted region will be returned as a newSpectrum1D
.- Parameters:
- spectrum: `~specutils.Spectrum1D`
The spectrum object from which the region will be extracted.
- lower, upper: `~astropy.units.Quantity`
The lower and upper bounds of the region to extract from the original spectrum.
- Returns:
- spectrum:
Spectrum1D
or list ofSpectrum1D
Excised spectrum, or list of spectra if the input region contained multiple subregions.
- spectrum:

This is for now just a proxy for function
