pyPplusS: Modeling exoplanets with rings
Abstract
pyPplusS calculates the light curves for ringed, oblate or spherical exoplanets in both the uniform and limb darkened cases. It can constrain the oblateness of planets using photometric data only. This code can be used to model light curves of more complicated configurations, including multiple planets, oblate planets, moons, rings, and combinations of these, while properly and efficiently taking into account overlapping areas and limb darkening.
