| 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 |
Reasons for rejection: - many missing slitlets or many slitlets with bad wavelength calibration - many curved slitlets If only a few slitlets are missing or badly calibrated (offsets in sky lines, curved lines) just add a comment and certify. 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 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
