PhoSim-NIRCam is a full end-to-end JWST/NIRCam image simulator built on the framework of the LSST image simulator PhoSim. It contains a comprehensive physical model of the JWST telescope + NIRCam, and simulates photons propagating through the whole system using a Monte Carlo approach. PhoSim-NIRCam is easy to use, allowing the user to start creating realistic NIRCam images with minimal preparation. It also provides a variety of advanced features that allow direct control of any element in the system.
This code can be used to generate simulated NIRCam, NIRISS, or FGS data

This is a JWST/NIRCam commissioning activity is to assess the stability of the grism time-series mode using astrophysical targets that show signals similar to a transiting exoplanet using both long-wave (LW) grism observations as well as short-wave (SW) simultaneous photometry with a weak lens.
My Code from PHYS 305 - Computational Physics taught at UArizona in Fall '20.
