MOSFiT¶

Welcome to the documentation for MOSFiT (The Modular Open Source Fitter for Transients), a Python 2.7/3.x package for fitting, sharing, and estimating the parameters of transients via user-contributed transient models.

Please see the links below for information on how to install and run the package.
