![]() The gmos.gifringe task would be used to construct the fringe frame, and the gmos.girmfinge task would scale and remove the pattern from science images. This pattern is derived from many low-background science images (with very few extended targets) by masking the targets and combining many dithered (preferably, non-overlapping) images that have been flat-fielded. gireduce Processing Flag Defaults ¶Īppend MDF extension? Not applicable to imaging.Īll of the processing steps below can be performed from the work directory on the lists of files constructed above, using the IRAF notation.Ī fringe pattern may be apparent in the extreme red ( i-band) for some CCDs. The gireduce task has more than 50 parameters the table below lists the defaults for the processing flag keywords-i.e., the keywords with logical values to indicate whether to perform an operation.įor the most part you can use the default parameter values exceptions are noted explicitly in the code blocks below. See Creating Master Reference Files to create the other MasterCals. See Bad Pixel Masks for the location of the appropriate BPM files. If you are concerned about the applicability of flat-field exposures taken weeks apart from the corresponding science exposures, it is simple to alter the date condition above and build more customized Flat-field MasterCals.īasic image reductions are performed by the gireduce task, using the Static BPM, Bias and Flat-field MasterCal files. # Note: IRAF refers to the OBJECT keyword with the special name: "i_title" s1 = "i_title?='Twilight' & obsclass?='da圜al' " # Flat-fields must also match the RoI, CCD binning, grating and aperture: s2 = "& detro1ys>1024 & ccdsum?='2 2' & grating?='MIRROR' & maskname?='None' " # Select flats obtained contemporaneously with the observations string date date = "& > '' & "flt_tmp.txt") gemextn (, omit = omit, outfile = "flat_r.txt" ) #.and so on for each filter.
