v1 v2 63 63 * The PR reduction class skips background subtraction in an effort to preserve extended emission structures. As a side effect of this process, the final skycells have arbitrary additive offsets which need to be corrected. The IDL script tile.pro does a fairly good job of performing this task. It performs a least-squares minimization of the brightness difference along tile boundaries. 64 64 65 65 [[Image(before.png)]] 66 [[Image(after.png)]] 66 67 67 68 === Create the color composite (IDL) === … … 75 76 * Final tweaks to the brightness, etc. are most easily accomplished in GIMP or Photoshop. I often use the color->curves tool to boos the brightness of faint regions and set the black threshhold to cover up noise. My transfer function usually looks something like this: 76 77 77 78 [[Image(curve.png)]] 78 79 79 80 == Unresolved Issues == … … 82 83 83 84 * Reduced data from the Fornax cluster display masked annuli around bright galaxies. This should be addressed. 84 85 [[Image(galaxy_mask_1.jpeg)]] 86 [[Image(galaxy_mask_2.jpeg)]] 85 87 * The I band stacking of the North American Nebula has been failing. (LABEL NUMBER???) 86 88
