qimagerpbtest - Function



Package synthesis
Module qimager


Perform a test of primary beam processing using a standard MeasurementSet


Synopsis
qimagerpbtest()


Description
Perform a test of primary processing. The dataset used is an observation of 3C273 at 8GHz using the C-configuration of the VLA. It is part of the AIPS++ distribution.

The test does the following:

  • The uvfits file that is to be read in is in a standard place in the AIPS++ code source area.
  • The MeasurementSet is read from the uvfits file.
  • A default calibration is applied
  • The data are weighted using the Briggs algorithm.
  • One field is cleaned, using the mf algorithm and the primary beam is applied both during the subtraction of components (the major cycle) and in estimating the residuals.



Returns
Bool
