imager.smooth - Function

Calculate an image smoothed with a Gaussian beam

Synopsis smooth(model, image, usefit, bmaj, bmin, bpa, normalize, async)

Description The model images are convolved with the specified Gaussian beam. By default (normalize=T), the beam volume is normalized to unity so that the smoothing is flux preserving. The smoothing used in restoration is not normalized.

Arguments

`model`	`in`	Name of input model
		`Allowed:`	`Vector of Strings`
`image`	`in`	Name of output smoothed images
		`Allowed:`	`Vector of Strings`
`usefit`	`in`	Use the fitted value (rather than that specified
		`Allowed:`	`Boolean`
		`Default:`	`T`
`bmaj`	`in`	Major axis of beam
		`Allowed:`	`Quantity record`
`bmin`	`in`	Minor axis of beam
		`Allowed:`	`Quantity record`
`bpa`	`in`	Position angle of beam
		`Allowed:`	`Quantity record`
`normalize`	`in`	Normalize volume of psf to unity
		`Allowed:`	`Bool`
		`Default:`	`T`
`async`	`in`	Run asynchronously in the background
		`Allowed:`	`Bool`
		`Default:`	`!dowait`

Returns Bool

Example

- imgr.smooth(model='3C273XC1.clean', image='3C273XC1.clean.restored',
bmaj='2.0arcsec', bmin='2.0arcsec')
