6.6.2 Examples using (immoments)

For example, using the NGC5921 example (§ F.1):

  default(’immoments’)
  imagename = ’ngc5921.demo.cleanimg’
  # Do first and second spectral moments
  axis  = ’spectral’
  chans = ’’
  moments = [0,1]
  # Need to mask out noisy pixels, currently done
  # using hard global limits
  excludepix = [-100,0.009]
  outfile = ’ngc5921.demo.moments’

  immoments()

  # It will have made the images:
  # --------------------------------------
  # ngc5921.demo.moments.integrated
  # ngc5921.demo.moments.weighted_coord

Other examples of NGC2403 (a moment zero image of a VLA line dataset) and NGC4826 (a moment one image of a BIMA CO line dataset) are shown in Figure 6.1.

Figure 6.1: NGC2403 VLA moment zero (left) and NGC4826 BIMA moment one (right) images as shown in the viewer.

ALERT: We are working on improving the thresholding of planes beyond the global cutoffs in includepix and excludepix.
