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
Mask pixels below this S/N (only when '--segment' is given).
-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
Don't print any extra information in stdout.
-V, --version
Print program version.
Mandatory or optional arguments to long options are also mandatory or optional for any corresponding short op‐
tions.
