| | 1 | I tried for about a week to figure out the right format file for the CTIO 4m Blanco MOSAIC2 that would support both full-FPA processing and individual amp- or chip-based processing. In the end I just gave up and treated each reduced amplifier as an FPA in the configuration files. This was easy and simple, but a guide with examples on how the configurations are supposed to be set up for various different detectors would be quite helpful to be able to self-consistently use the IPP for a full processing of images. But for now the first goal is just to see if we can get subtractions from already-processed ESSENCE images and do object detection, lightcurves, and classification. |

| | 11 | ESSENCE and the IPP use a slightly different convention for masking so I didn't use the ESSENCE masks. However, the weight images do have very high variances set for the masked-out regions so it's OK for now not to have the mask. I ran with a very simple, and theoretically inadequate, convolution kernel size. Here's the "ppSub.config" I used. This was with Paul Price's ipp-2.2b ppSub modifications. |
