QC1PARAM |
QC1 parameters written into QC1 table:
QC1db names: skyline_position | skyline_rms | skyline_offset | skyline_number | avg_accuracy
QC1 params created by pipeline: avg_accuracy (from wavelength calibration data)
QC1 params created by this procedure: all others
|
|
ALGORITHM |
Description of algorithms:
The whole rebinned frame is searched for emission lines. Then lines within +/- 1 pixel around skyline_position are selected and their offset with respect to the reference line is determined.
The mean and rms of these offsets are stored in skyline_offset and skyline_rms.
The number of skylines used is stored in skyline_number
|
|
CERTIF |
- to be rejected only if obviously bad, e.g. curved or
slanted sky lines
- skyline offsets of more than 0.3 pixels violate the nominal calibration accuracy,
but may be due to temperature differences between science and calibration data and
are no cause for rejection
