vpmanager.setpbimage - Function



Package synthesis
Module imager
Tool vpmanager


Make a vp/pb from a user-supplied image


Synopsis
setpbimage(telescope, othertelescope, dopb, realimage, imagimage)


Description
Experimental: Supply an image of the E Jones elements. The format of the image is:
Shape
nx by ny by 4 complex polarizations (RR, RL, LR, LL or XX, XY, YX, YY) by 1 channel.
Direction coordinate
Az, El
Stokes coordinate
All four ``stokes'' parameters must be present in the sequence RR, RL, LR, LL or XX, XY, YX, YY.
Frequency
Only one channel is currently needed - frequency dependence beyond that is ignored.
One or two images may be specified - the real (must be present) and imaginary parts (optional).

Note that beamsquint must be intrinsic to the images themselves. This will be accounted for correctly by regridding of the images from Az-El to Ra-Dec according to the parallactic angle.



Arguments

telescope Which telescope in the MS will use this vp/pb?
Allowed: String
othertelescope If telescope=="OTHER", specify name here
Allowed: String
dopb Should we apply the vp/pb to this telescope's data?
Allowed: Bool
Default: T
realimage Real part of vp as an image
Allowed: String
Default: ``''
imagimage Imaginary part of vp as an image
Allowed: String
Default: ``''


Returns
itemcontainer
