Welcome to ExoSim2’s documentation!

Version: 2.0.0rc1

ExoSim is the time domain simulator exoplanet observations first presented in Sarkar et al., 2021. This refactored version is meant to be easy to use and largely customisable: almost every part of the code can be customised by the user.

This guide will walk you through the simulation steps with examples and descriptions of the simulation strategy. The guide goal is to train the user to customise the simulator according to the instrument of the observation needed.
