A Fully Automated Integral Field Spectrograph Pipeline for the SEDMachine: pysedm

Understand

Current time domain facilities are discovering hundreds of new galactic and extra-galactic transients every week.

• Classifying the ever-increasing number of transients is challenging, yet crucial to further our understanding of their nature, discover new classes, or ensuring sample purity, for instance, for Supernova Ia cosmology.
• The Zwicky Transient Facility is one example of such a survey.
• In addition, it has a dedicated very-low resolution spectrograph, the SEDMachine, operating on the Palomar 60-inch telescope.
