Development Plan

We're still working on crafting our development plan. In the meantime see :

• the Long term TODO List

• Extension to non-Voigt profiles / line-mixing. These are particularly important at high pressure. See for instance Alberti 2015

(news 2021) RADIS now has a Development Plan draft. Have a look on our 💬 Slack #roadmap

Developer Tips

Git Workflow

• Have a look at the Astropy Development Workflow. We should use something very similar here.

Refactor commits

• See the EinsteinPy guide on how to refactor Commits

OpenAstronomy

Google Summer of Code

Radis participates in GSoC as part of the OpenAstronomy organization.

• GSoC Guidelines - read this first and follow the instructions!

💡 Ideas for GSoC 2021

The RADIS team is currently writing some 💡 GSOC 2021 project proposals. Some ideas :

• Optimize which Lineshape engine to use (LDM/historical) depending on the spectrum type : https://github.com/radis/radis-benchmark/issues/5
• GPU for nonequilibrium. See GPU Roadmap https://github.com/radis/radis/issues/144
• Automatic differentiation for tuning uncertain molecular data and/or computing exact Jacobian spectra. https://github.com/radis/radis/issues/153
• Performance: reduce Memory usage https://github.com/radis/radis/issues/118
• Read more line databases, in particular interface to ExoMol and ChiantiPy : https://github.com/radis/radis/issues/34
• RADIS for Big Data : switch to lazy database librairies like Vaex, stream the database to spectra "on-the-fly"

GSoC 2020

• GSoC 2020 Project Ideas (then search for radis projects)

Proposals :

• GSOC-2020 Application-RADIS-Aditya Bharadwaj: (Atmospheric Interface to the RADIS Spectral Code)

• GSOC 2020 Application RADIS Pankaj Mishra: Accelerate Synthetic Spectra Calculations [accepted ✔️]
