NAME QCsinfo_dist.py
VERSION 1.0 -- 2006-06-20 fill template by handbook
1.0 -- 2006-07-07 completed
2.0 -- 2009.02.13 completely re-written in Python with added QC functions and images
SYNTAX Python
CALL measureQuality
from $DFS_PRODUCT/DIST/$DATE:
QCsinfo_dist.py -a $AB_name -i $level_of_interaction: 0-2
INSTRUMENT SINFONI
RAWTYPE DIST
PURPOSE a) generates QC report,
b) writes QC1 parameters into local database
PROCINPUT No input is required:
a) $DATE in now read from AB
b) primary file is set in QCsinfo_dist.py and is the PRO.CATG=DISTORTION product with the _0000.fits extension.
c) raw frames are implicitly read from the AB.
d) Reference DISTORTION and SLITLETS_DISTANCE are found and read in from $DFO_QC_DIR/references/DIST/.

UL: Slitlet-to-slitlet distances (31)
Current distortion (blue points) with median (blue line) and 1 sigma area (shaded green region)
Reference distortion median (red dotted line)
UR: Distortion coefficients applied to 5 points on detector: chip center and 4 quadrants.
Black circles set the nominal values, the current distortion is shown as blue squares, and the reference distortion is shown as red squares.
LL: An image of the current distortion.
LR: An image of the (reference - current) distortion.
QC1PARAM QC1 parameters written into QC1 table:
FITSNAME, DBNAME , typical value, description:
QC.COEFF00 , qc_coeff_00, 15.8275 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF10 , qc_coeff_10, 0.986956 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF01 , qc_coeff_01, -0.00380703 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF11 , qc_coeff_11, 5.30532E-06 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF20 , qc_coeff_20, 2.66288E-07 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF02 , qc_coeff_02, 7.15443E-07 / Polynomial distortion coefficient
QC.COEFF21 , qc_coeff_21, -4.82633E-10 / Polynomial distortion coefficient

QC.XSHIFT.UR , qc_xhift_ur, -0.278897 / X shift in x_u,y_u
QC.XSHIFT.LR , qc_xhift_lr, 2.0577 / X shift in x_u,y_l
QC.SL.DISTAVG , qc_sl_distavg, 63.9512 / Average Slitlet distance
QC.SL.DISTRMS , qc_sl_distrms, 0.518605 / RMS Slitlet distance
ALGORITHM qc_coeff_00 .. qc_coeff_21: a set of about 80 fiber frames is used to derive the optical distortion of the spectra. TBD more degrees used since 2006-06
qc_xhsift_ll .. qc_xshift_cc The distortion coefficients applied to dedicated positions on the chip. These are the center of each of the four quadrants ([@512:@512], [@1536:@1536], [@512,@1536], [@1536:@512]) and the central pixel ([@1024:@1024]).
qc_sl_distavg is the average of all 31 slitlets distances. The recipe generates for each slitlets distance a QC1 parameter, but only the average and the stdev are trended.
qc_sl_distrms use the scatter within the sample of 31 slitlets distances
CERTIF Reasons for rejection:
Insufficient number of fibre frames. Expect ~75 frames to cover all slitlets with the fibre trace.
COMMENTS The recipe generates about 40 more QC parameters of less importance that are not trendend. local difference frames (current product minus last one) and reference difference frames (current product minus reference) are provided in the detailed section of certifyProducts
