Bases: AstroDataGemini

central_wavelength(asMicrometers=False, asNanometers=False, asAngstroms=False)[source]

Returns the central wavelength in meters or specified units

Parameters
  • asMicrometers (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in microns

  • asNanometers (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in nanometers

  • asAngstroms (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in Angstroms

Returns

The central wavelength setting

Return type

float

detector_x_offset()[source]

Returns the offset from the reference position in pixels along the positive x-direction of the detector

Returns

The offset in pixels

Return type

float

detector_y_offset()[source]

Returns the offset from the reference position in pixels along the positive y-direction of the detector

Returns

The offset in pixels

Return type

float

dispersion(asMicrometers=False, asNanometers=False, asAngstroms=False)[source]

Returns the dispersion in meters per pixel as a list (one value per extension) or a float if used on a single-extension slice. It is possible to control the units of wavelength using the input arguments.

Parameters

  • asNanometers (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in nanometers

  • asAngstroms (bool) – If True, return the wavelength in Angstroms

Returns

The dispersion(s)

Return type

list/float

gain()[source]

Returns the gain (electrons/ADU) for each extension

Returns

Return type

list of floats/float

pixel_scale()[source]

Returns the image scale in arcseconds per pixel

Returns

the pixel scale
