====== TOOLS ======

===== * PAHTAT =====
** Description ** \\
The PAHTAT tool aims to analyze astronomical mid-infrared spectra containing PAH emission. It uses spectral templates that were derived from observations. [[https://doi.org/10.1051/0004-6361/201015915]]\\

===== *  AIBsimulator =====
** Description ** \\
The AIBsimulator is a simulator for a fast calculation of the emission of a given PAH in a given radiation field. The synthetic spectra are based on theoretical and experimental molecular data. [[tools:aibsim|More]]\\
