qimagerselfcaltest - Function



Package synthesis
Module qimager


Perform a test of selfcal processing using a standard MeasurementSet


Synopsis
qimagerselfcaltest(size, doshift, doplot)


Description
Perform a test of selfcal model 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.
  • qimager and calibrater tools are created.
  • qimager is used to clean and restore the image
  • The clean model is clipped at 750mJy
  • The selfcal tool function is used to self-calibrate using the current model. The Jones matrices are: T, 60s and G, 600s.
  • The clean and restoration are repeated with the improved calibration.



Returns
Bool

Allowed: Int
Default: 128
doshift Shift the phase center
Allowed: Bool
