ZodiPy: A Python package for zodiacal light simulations

ZodiPy is an Astropy-affiliated Python package for zodiacal light simulations. Its purpose is to provide the astrophysics and cosmology communities with an accessible and easy-to-use Python interface to existing zodiacal light models, assisting in the analysis of infrared astrophysical data and enabling quick and easy zodiacal light forecasting for future experiments. ZodiPy implements the Kelsall et al. (1998) and the Planck Collaboration et al. (2014) interplanetary dust models, which allow for zodiacal light simulations between 1.25−240𝜇 m and 30−857 GHz, respectively, with the possibility of extrapolating the models to other frequencies.
