load_cloud_nk_data#

exo_skryer.registry_cloud.load_cloud_nk_data(path: str | Path, wl_master: ndarray) → None[source]#

Load a refractive index table from disk, interpolate to wl_master, and cache.

Expected file format:

wavelength[um]  n  k

Extra columns are ignored.

The first line must be:

<nwl> <conducting_flag>

where conducting_flag is a Fortran-style boolean (e.g. “.True.” / “.False.”).

This mirrors the behavior in the legacy Fortran tables:

  • Below the table range: clamp n,k to the lowest-wavelength values.

  • Above the table range: - if conducting: log-log extrapolate n,k using a point at 0.7*wl_max - else: hold n constant, decrease k ~ 1/wl

  • Within range: log-log interpolate n,k between bracketing grid points.
