ASTSCRIPT-PSF-SCALE-FACTOR(1) User Commands ASTSCRIPT-PSF-SCALE-FACTOR(1)

astscript-psf-scale-factor - Find factor to scale PSF to a given star in an image

astscript-psf-scale-factor [OPTION] FITS-files

This script is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.17.

This script will consider a center position and then compute the factor by which it is necessary to multiply the specified PSF image in order to match it with the object at the center (within a ring radii). The main idea is to have the necessary factor that will be used to allocate the PSF with the proper flux value for constructing the scattered light field.

For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the first contains a very comprehensive explanation of this script's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the options.

Inputs/Outputs and options:
$ info astscript-psf-scale-factor
Full Gnuastro manual/book:
$ info gnuastro

If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

$ info help-gnuastro

Input:
-h, --hdu=STR
HDU/extension of all input FITS files.
-p, --psf=STR
PSF image fits file.
-P, --psfhdu=STR
HDU/extension of the PSF image.
-O, --mode=STR
Coordinates mode ('wcs' or 'img').
-c, --center=FLT,FLT
Center coordinates of the object.
-W, --stampwidth=INT
Width of the stamp in pixels.
-n, --normradii=INT,INT Minimum and maximum radii (in pixels)
for computing the scaling factor value.
-w, --corewidth=INT
Area width of the central object in pixels for unmasking.
-S, --segment=STR
Output of Segment (with OBJECTS and CLUMPS).

-s, --sigmaclip=FLT,FLT Sigma-clip multiple and tolerance.

Output:
-t, --tmpdir
Directory to keep temporary files.
-k, --keeptmp
Keep temporal/auxiliar files.
Operating mode:
-?, --help
Print this help list.
--cite
BibTeX citation for this program.
-q, --quiet
Don't print any extra information in stdout.
-V, --version
Print program version.

Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short options.
