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. (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.
