The 'flux' parameter in 'transform' taskStarted by:Kimmo, 06/21/2011 09:39AM
Hi

I am using the 'transform' procedure to
correct the wavelength-curvature of
longslit spectra.
The procedure has the parameter 'flux',
which is used to control the
conservation of flux per pixel.

Our measurements are so that we are
measuring scat...
