[Instrument]
¶
This section deals with passing the forward model through some form of noise model.
The instrument function in TauREx3 serves to generate a spectrum and noise from a forward model.
Including a noise model in the TauREx3 input makes the output file capable of being used as an observation in the retrieval. It is also capable of fitting itself (See TauREx Spectrum)
- The instrument is defined by the

variable: snr
Signal-to-noise ratio instrument
Class:

User-type instrument. See Custom Types
SNR¶
instrument = snr
A very basic instrument that generates noise based on the forward model
spectrum and signal-to-noise ratio value. Uses the native spectrum as the grid,
unless a Manual binning is defined in which case that is used as the grid.
