NAME

       muse_create_sky - Create night sky model from selected pixels of an exposure of empty sky.

SYNOPSIS

       esorex muse_create_sky [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

DESCRIPTION

       This recipe creates the continuum and the atmospheric transition line spectra of the night
       sky from the data in a pixel table(s) belonging to one exposure of (mostly) empty sky.

OPTIONS

       --fraction <float>
              Fraction of the image (without the ignored part) to be considered  as  sky.  If  an
              input sky mask is provided, the fraction is applied to the regions within the mask.
              If the whole sky mask should be used, set this parameter  to  1.  (float;  default:
              0.75).  The  full  name  of  this  option  for  the  EsoRex  configuration  file is
              muse.muse_create_sky.fraction [default = 0.75].

       --ignore <float>
              Fraction of the image to be ignored. If an input sky mask is provided, the fraction
              is  applied  to  the regions within the mask. If the whole sky mask should be used,
              set this parameter to 0. (float; default: 0.05). The full name of this  option  for
              the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_create_sky.ignore [default = 0.05].

       --sampling <float>
              Spectral  sampling  of  the  sky spectrum [Angstrom]. (float; default: 0.3125). The
              full   name   of   this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration    file    is
              muse.muse_create_sky.sampling [default = 0.3125].

       --csampling <float>
              Spectral  sampling  of the continuum spectrum [Angstrom]. (float; default: 0.3125).
              The  full  name  of  this   option   for   the   EsoRex   configuration   file   is
              muse.muse_create_sky.csampling [default = 0.3125].

       --crsigma <str>
              Sigma  level  clipping for cube-based and spectrum-based CR rejection.  This has to
              be a string of two comma-separated floating-point numbers.  The first  value  gives
              the  sigma-level  rejection  for  cube-based  CR  rejection  (using  "median",  see
              muse_scipost), the second value the sigma-level  for  spectrum-based  CR  cleaning.
              Both  can  be  switched  off,  by passing zero or a negative value; by default, the
              spectrum-based rejection is switched off. (str; default: ´15.,15.´). The full  name
              of  this  option  for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_create_sky.crsigma
              [default = 15.,15.].

       --lambdamin <float>
              Cut off the data below this wavelength after loading the  pixel  table(s).  (float;
              default: 4000.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is
              muse.muse_create_sky.lambdamin [default = 4000.0].

       --lambdamax <float>
              Cut off the data above this wavelength after loading the  pixel  table(s).  (float;
              default:  10000.0).  The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file
              is muse.muse_create_sky.lambdamax [default = 10000.0].

       --lambdaref <float>
              Reference wavelength used for correction of  differential  atmospheric  refraction.
              The  R-band  (peak  wavelength ~7000 Angstrom) that is usually used for guiding, is
              close to the central wavelength of MUSE, so a value of 7000.0  Angstrom  should  be
              used if nothing else is known.  A value less than zero switches DAR correction off.
              (float; default: 7000.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration
              file is muse.muse_create_sky.lambdaref [default = 7000.0].

       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.
