The package is available on the Python Package Index and can be most easily installed with pip:

pip install molspecutils

Molecular data#

molspecutils.molecule.COAlchemyMode and molspecutils.molecule.CH3ClAlchemyMode provide simple interfaces to data on rovibrational transitions and energy levels of CO and CH3Cl \(\nu_3\) vibrational mode. The molecular data is not bundled with the package and during the first run molspecutils will use HAPI 1 to fetch transitions line lists from HITRAN 2 and cache them for future use.
