Support for MIST Skymapper bands #90

Closed jlin0504 closed 5 years ago

jlin0504 commented 5 years ago

Hi, I would like to generate some synthetic SkyMapper bands, but I could only find the following bands:

In [349]: mist = get_ichrone('mist',tracks=True)
In [350]: mist.bands
Out[350]: ['J', 'H', 'K', 'G', 'BP', 'RP', 'W1', 'W2', 'W3', 'TESS', 'Kepler']

Is it possible to access the SkyMapper uvgriz bands? Apologies if this has been covered already.

Just define the grid like this:

mist = get_ichrone('mist', tracks=True, bands=['SkyMapper_u', 'SkyMapper_g', ...])

The grids have a default set of bands, but anything contained in any of the mist bolometric correction tables is fair game. (see https://github.com/timothydmorton/isochrones/blob/master/isochrones/mist/bc.py)

Thanks! It works perfectly.
