Pysochron

Pysochron is a Python-based tool designed to calculate isochron burial ages from in-situ cosmogenic 26Al and 10Be data. It uses orthogonal distance regressions to fit isochron lines to 1000 Monte Carlo simulations of nuclide concentration measurements to account for uncertainty, and allows the user to modify various aspects of the fitting process, including constants relating to the production and decay of cosmogenic nuclides. It outputs an automatically named, editable .pdf file to the working directory that contains an isochron plot with associated inputs, constants, and results displayed beneath.
