version 1.4 (History)

ExoJAX provides an auto-differentiable high-resolution spectrum model for exoplanets/brown dwarfs using JAX. ExoJAX enables a fully Bayesian inference of the high-dispersion data to fit the line-by-line spectral computation to the observed spectrum, from end-to-end (i.e. from molecular/atomic databases to real spectra), by combining it with the Hamiltonian Monte Carlo in recent probabilistic programming languages such as NumPyro. So, the notable features of ExoJAX are summarized as

  • HMC-NUTS, gradient-based optimizer available

  • Easy to use the latest molecular/atomic data in ExoMol, HITEMP, HITRAN, and VALD3

  • A transparent open-source project; anyone who wants to participate can join the development!
