Shape Distribution Software

This set of programs is used to calculate the shape likelihood distribution of an elliptical galaxy by combining its photometric data with its kinematic data. Given a number of these likellihoods it is then able to calculate the parent distribution of shapes from which the sample was drawn.

Smooth  High Order Velocity Field Software


 
Given a number of velocities measured at random spots across a 2D surface, these programs are able to create smooth velocity, dispersion, and the third and fourth Gauss-Hermite fields.
