rustronomy-fits: a rust library for reading and writing fits files

👋 "hello, world!"

I'm Raúl, a PhD student studying the hydrodynamics of heavy ion collisions (and hopefully neutron stars at some point!) at Utrecht University in the Netherlands. I have recently switched to particle physics, having previously worked in Cosmology (multifield inflation) and astrophysics (interstellar medium) for my MSc. research internships at Leiden University.

🤓 research interest

• Hydrodynamics and QCD
• Cosmology and Inflation
• Astronomy
• I ❤️ Rust

Some of my stuff

• 🌌 inflatox a rust-based python tool to evaluate if (and where!) two-field inflation theories are suitable for slow-roll, rapid-turn inflation.
• 🦀🌌 rustronomy a data analysis toolkit for astronomy, written in rust it currently contains:
  • rustronomy-fits IO package for NASA's Flexible Image Transport System (FITS)
  • rustronomy-watershed a pure rust implementation of the merging and segmenting watershed algorithms
• 🍇🫐🍒🍎gruber fruity🍊🍋🍐🫒🍧🌸 a minimalist theme pack for vs code

🧑🏼‍🔬 Publications

• "Generalised conditions for rapid-turn inflation" (preprint) Raul Wolters, Oksana Iarygina, Ana Achúcarro arXiv:2405.11628
