fit1d and pixel mask with bad pixels ...Started by:gbhw, 03/06/2015 04:20PM
Dear Frank Valdes,

With fit1d, I would like to fit and
subtract the background of images, using
during the fit a pixel mask masking both
sources within the images and pixel
regions at borders (the latter usually
set at extreme high or low values in

Dear,

Hello, I am having the following

2-dimensional spectrum, already
calibrated by wavelength. The issue
comes that the routine apall is not

Hi,

I am fitting some spectral lines with
the deblend option in the splot iraf
task. Once the fit has been done, I
would like to save, together with the
fit parameters (e.g. FWHM,flux, etc,
which I get in the splot.log file), also

I am measuring broad spectral lines in

about the flux calibration of a spectrumStarted by:haha, 09/04/2014 03:49AM
when we run

Automatically there is a size for an
aperture. That size is the FWHM or
something of the aperture? Or we can
choose the size of the aperture by
ourself?

If we choose by hand, the flux may
become arbitrary?
