SINFO_REC_DETLIN(7) sinfo recipes SINFO_REC_DETLIN(7)

NAME

sinfo_rec_detlin - Detector's linearity & non linear bad pixels determination.

SYNOPSIS

esorex sinfo_rec_detlin [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

This recipe computes detector non linearities and a bad pixel map.

The input files are increasing intensity raw flats their associated tags should be LINEARITY_LAMP.

The output are: A table (PRO.CATG=LIN_DET_INFO) with information on the detector non linearities A table (PRO.CATG=GAIN_INFO) with information on the detector gain A cube (PRO.CATG=BP_COEFF) with the polynomial fit parameters of the detector non linearities A bad pixel map (PRO.CATG=BP_MAP_NL)

OPTIONS

Overwrite DRS ini parameters: (bool; default: True). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.general.overwrite_parameters [default = True].
Correct for bad lines introduced by instrument software: (bool; default: False). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.general.lc_sw [default = False].
Kappa sigma value (long; default: 18). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.general.lc_kappa [default = 18].
Filtering radii applied during median filter. Should be small (long; default: 3). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.general.lc_filt_rad [default = 3].
Density of pipeline products: 0 (low), 1 (low+skycor), 2 (med-QC), 3 (high-debug+skycor) (long; default: 2). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.product.density [default = 2].
Order: order of the fit polynomial = number of coefficents - 1 (long; default: 2). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.bp_lin.order [default = 2].
Threshold Sigma Factor: threshold factor of the clean standard deviation. If the deviations of the linear polynomial coefficients exceed this threshold the corresponding pixels are declared as bad (float; default: 10.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.bp_lin.thresh_sigma_factor [default = 10.0].
Non Linear Threshold (float; default: 0.5). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.bp_lin.nlin_threshold [default = 0.5].
low_rejection: percentage of rejected low intensity pixels before averaging (float; default: 10.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.bp_lin.low_rejection [default = 10.0].
high_rejection: percentage of rejected high intensity pixels before averaging (float; default: 10.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is sinfoni.bp_lin.high_rejection [default = 10.0].

Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing these options, along with suitable default values. Please refer to the details provided by the 'esorex --help' command.
