* Package name    : synphot
  Version         : 1.1.2
  Upstream Author : Space Telescope Science Institute
* URL             : https://github.com/spacetelescope/synphot_refactor
* License         : BSD-3-Clause
  Programming Lang: Python 3
  Description     : Simulate photometric data ans spectra in astronomy

synphot simulates photometric data and spectra, observed or otherwise.
It can incorporate external filters, spectra, and data. One can also use
a pre-defined standard star (Vega), bandpass, or extinction law.
Furthermore, it allows one to:

 * Construct complicated composite spectra using different models.
 * Simulate observations.
 * Compute photometric properties such as count rate, effective
   wavelength, and effective stimulus.
 * Manipulate a spectrum; e.g., applying redshift or normalize it to a
   given flux value in a given bandpass.
 * Sample a spectrum at given wavelengths.
 * Plot a quick-view of a spectrum.
 * Perform repetitive operations such as simulating the observations of
   multiple type of sources through multiple bandpasses.

This is a dependency of the upcoming specreduce package (ITP #1012441).

I will maintain the package within the Debian Astro team in Salsa:

Best regards

Ole
