NAME
astscript-psf-stamp - Make normalized stamp with other sources masked

SYNOPSIS
astscript-psf-stamp [OPTION] FITS-files

DESCRIPTION
This script is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.22.

This script will consider a center position to make a normalized stamp. It is intendeed to generate several
stamps and combine them to obtain a PSF.

For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the first contains a very compre‐
hensive explanation of this script's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the
options.

Inputs/Outputs and options:
$ info astscript-psf-stamp

Full Gnuastro manual/book:
$ info gnuastro

If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and de‐
velopers. For more information, please run:

$ info help-gnuastro

astscript-psf-stamp options:
Input:

-h, --hdu=STR
HDU/extension of all input FITS files.

-O, --mode=STR
Coordinates mode ('wcs' or 'img').

-c, --center=FLT,FLT
Center coordinates of the object.

-W, --widthinpix=INT,INT Width of the stamp in pixels.

-T, --snthresh=FLT

-n, --normradii=INT,INT Minimum and maximum radii (in pixels)
for computing the normalization value.

-S, --segment=STR
Output of Segment (with OBJECTS and CLUMPS).

-N, --normop=STR
Operator for computing the normalization value (mean, sigclip-mean, etc.).

-Q, --axis-ratio=FLT
Axis ratio for ellipse maskprofile (A/B).

-p, --position-angle=FLT Position angle for ellipse mask profile.

-s, --sigmaclip=FLT,FLT Sigma-clip multiple and tolerance.

-d, --nocentering
Don't warp the center coord to central pixel.

Output:

-o, --output
Output table with the radial profile.

-t, --tmpdir
Directory to keep temporary files.

-k, --keeptmp
Keep temporal/auxiliar files.

Operating mode:

-?, --help
Print this help list.

--cite BibTeX citation for this program.

-q, --quiet

-V, --version
Print program version.

Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short op‐
tions.
