Full Force Test on Small Area Survey Stacks and warps

This note discusses the results of the first test of the IPP full force stage on the SAS stacks (label = SAS.20130620). The label for the fullForceRun was SAS.20140117.

The purpose of this test were

• verify the basic operation of the software
• test the code on a well studied area of the Pan-Starrs survey
• compare the resulting galaxy model fits to SDSS measurements of galaxy parameters
• to determine the recipe parameters to be used in 3PI.PV2

Recipes

The programs and the algorithms used by the full force pipeline are described in fullforce_algorithms.

This test searched a wider range in fit radii parameters than is necessary or practical from a compute perspective. This was done so as to get an idea of the range that should be used for the 3PI analysis.
