These scripts are designed for use with data processed using the IRAF packages and scripts for handling échelle data (echelle, doecslit). They provide simple utilities which could also be used as templates for other actions.
The input and output lists of spectra may be the same.
To install and use:
You will be prompted to enter values for the parameters. Alternatively, set values using the parameter editor and then run the task.
This script is useful for comparing sets of lines at different wavelengths, for example, Lyman lines.
The lines parameter is a two-column text file containing the aperture number for the desired feature and the wavelength for zero velocity.
The output parameter is a root filename. A set of 1-D spectra with the root name and an appended integer will be produced, one for every line in the lines file.
To install and use:
You will be prompted to enter values for the parameters. Alternatively, set values using the parameter editor and then run the task.
This script allows the specification of sections of the orders of an echellogram to be used to produce a single spectrum. A file listing the order numbers and required sections of the orders is read and the selected regions of each order are then trimmed into the output échelle image. Several similar échelle images can be processed at the same time by specifying a list of input images.
The orders parameter is a text file containing lines with order number and 1-D image section for trimming. See the example below for the format of the file. Basically, you should use the standard IRAF syntax for specifying a section of an image, one order per line of the file.
Each specified order is trimmed and merged into the output image.
The input and output images may be the same.
