The AsteroFLAG Artificial Data Generator 3 (AADG3)

AADG3 simulates lightcurves of solar-like oscillators. It is based on a series of programs derived from the original work by Chaplin et al. (1997), which describes the method of generating the oscillations using the Laplace transform solution of a damped harmonic oscillator. The use of a correlated excitation component to produce mode asymmetry was introduced by Toutain et al. (2006). Most recently, Howe et al. (2015) gave a detailed description of the code's methods as part of their validation of BiSON results.

Variants of the code have been used by the Solar Fitting at Low Angular Degree (solarFLAG, e.g. Chaplin et al. 2006) and subsequent Asteroseismic Fitting at Low Angular Degree (asteroFLAG, e.g. Chaplin et al. 2008) consortia.

This version is derived from code delivered as version 2, which we incremented to the present version. We publicly released version 3.0 as part of Ball et al. (2018), in which we also presented a large catalogue of mock TESS targets for which we generated data using AADG3.
