NAME
kmos_extract_spec - Extract a spectrum from a cube
SYNOPSIS
esorex kmos_extract_spec [OPTIONS] FILE.sof
DESCRIPTION
This recipe extracts a spectrum from a datacube. The datacube is with or without noise). The output will
be a similarly formatted FITS file.

EXTRACT_SPEC F1I Extracted spectrum
EXTRACT_SPEC_MASK F2I (optional, if --save_mask=true and
--mask_method=´optimal´: The calculated mask)
OPTIONS
--mask_method <str>
Method used : mask, integrated or optimal (str; default: ´integrated´). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.mask_method [default =
integrated].
--centre <str>
The centre of the circular mask (pixel) (str; default: ´7.5,7.5´). The full name of this option
for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.centre [default = 7.5,7.5].
--radius <float>
The radius of the circular mask (pixel) (float; default: 3.0). The full name of this option for
the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.radius [default = 3.0].
--save_mask <bool>
Flag to save the mask (bool; default: False). The full name of this option for the EsoRex
configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.save_mask [default = False].
--cmethod <str>
Apply "average", "median", "sum", "min_max." or "ksigma". (str; default: ´ksigma´). The full name
of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.cmethod [default =
ksigma].
--cpos_rej <float>
The positive rejection threshold for kappa-sigma-clipping (sigma). (float; default: 3.0). The
full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.cpos_rej
[default = 3.0].
--cneg_rej <float>
The negative rejection threshold for kappa-sigma-clipping (sigma). (float; default: 3.0). The
full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.cneg_rej
[default = 3.0].
--citer <long>
The number of iterations for kappa-sigma-clipping. (long; default: 3). The full name of this
option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.citer [default = 3].
--cmax <long>
The number of maximum pixel values to clip with min/max-clipping. (long; default: 1). The full
name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.cmax [default =
1].
--cmin <long>
The number of minimum pixel values to clip with min/max-clipping. (long; default: 1). The full
name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is kmos.kmos_extract_spec.cmin [default =
1].
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.
