pyrolite.geochem.isotope
Submodule for calculation and transformation of mass spectrometry data (particularly for ion-counting and isotope ratio data). Currently in the early stages of development.
Todo
Dodson ratios 1
Add noise-corrected quasi-unbiased ratios of Coath et al. (2012) 2
Synthetic data, file format parsing
Capability for dealing with pyrolite.geochem.isotopeerence materials
This would be handy for
pyrolite.geochem
in general, and could be implemented in a similar way to howpyrolite.geochem.norm
handles pyrolite.geochem.isotopeerence compositions.Stable isotope calculations
Simple radiogenic isotope system calculations and plots
U-Pb, U-series data reduction and uncertainty propagation
