This repository contains hipipe, the reduction pipeline specifically developed to calibrate and extract data generated by the HiRISE visitor instrument at the VLT. HiRISE couples the exoplanet imager SPHERE with the high-resolution spectrograph CRIRES to enable the detailed characterization of known giant exoplanets in the H band. HiRISE was commissioned in 2023 and is currently implemented at the telescope (Vigan et al. 2024).

Please cite Costes et al. (2024) when hipipe is used in a publication.
