Bright / extended DIMM configuration

The simpler method is to make a map from all of the data at once using dimmconfig_bright_extended.lis:

% makemap "$STARLINK_DIR/share/smurf/s8d20100216_00022_0002[23].sdf" Orion \
method=iterate config=^$STARLINK_DIR/share/smurf/dimmconfig_bright_extended.lis

The large-scale noise and negative bowling is compensated for using a S/N-based zero mask during map-making. Everywhere the signal is below this threshold (5-$\sigma$ by default), the map is set to zero for all but the final iteration. The resulting map, and the location of the iteratively-determined zero mask are shown in Fig. .

Figure: Top: Map using all of the same data as in Fig. , but processed simultaneously using a single call to makemap with the specialized dimmconfig_bright_extended.lis. Bottom: The QUALITY component of the resulting map indicates (white) where the map has been constrained to zero after all but the final iteration. It is selected based on a S/N threshold.
