#+ # Name: # dimmconfig_fix_blobs.lis # Purpose: # A MAKEMAP configuration add-on for removing "blobs". # Description: # This file provides values for additional parameters used by the # SMURF:MAKEMAP command to control the details of the map-making # algorithm. # # The parameters defined by this file attempt to prevent smooth # bright blobs of emission appearing in the final map. It does # this by 1) identifying and flagging samples that appear to suffer # from ringing following the subtraction of the FLT model, 2) using # a soft-edged Butterworth filter in place of the normal hard-edged # filter, and 3) rejecting samples for which the separate sub-arrays # see a markedly different common-mode signal (this last parameter # can be lowered if the value of 5 supplied by this file does not # remove all the blobs). # # This file does not provide a complete set of parameters, and # so should be included in the configuration following another # config that provides a complete set. The values defined in this # file then over-ride the values supplied by the earlier config. # For instance, you may want to use a config file that contains: # # ^/star/share/smurf/dimmconfig_bright_compact.lis # ^/star/share/smurf/dimmconfig_fix_blobs.lis # # This reads a complete set of configuration parameter from the # dimmconfig_bright_compact.lis file, and then assigns new values # for just those parameters defined in dimmconfig_fix_blobs.lis. # These values over-ride the values specified in # dimmconfig_bright_compact.lis. # Notes: # - For a full list of all available parameters, and their purposes, # see the file $SMURF_DIR/smurf_makemap.def. All available parameters # are also documented in SUN/258, appendix "Configuration Parameters". # - A single parameter can be given different values to use when # processing 450 or 850 um data. This is done by including the # parameter twice, prefixing the parameter name with "450." and "850." # Authors: # DSB: David Berry (JAC, Hawaii) # History: # 19-JUN-2014 (DSB): # Original Version. #- # Ringing filter. flt.ring_box1=0.5 # Soft-edged filter. flt.filt_order=4 # Reject samples for which the different sub-arrays see different # common-modes. This can be lowered to (say) 2 if the blobs are not # removed by using a value of 5, but lower values cause more data to be # rejected, potentially resulting in higher over-all noise in the map. com.sig_limit=5
