    15481548After the initial, fast analysis of the image relying primarily on the
    15491549PSF model, a complete analysis of the extended source properties may
    1550 be performed.  For PS1 processing, this step is the nightly (PV0)
    1551 analysis of individual exposures and only performed for the stacks.
     1550be performed.  For PS1 processing, this step is skipped in the nightly
     1551(PV0) analysis of individual exposures and only performed for the
     1552stacks in the major reprocessings.
     1553
     1554The extended souce analysis consists of the following types of
     1555measurements: 1) an analysis of the radial profile of the surface
     1556brightness of the source; 2) measurement of the Petrosian radius and
     1557magnitude; 3) convolved galaxy model fits; and 4) photometry in
     1558several fixed-sized apertures, both raw and convolved to a defined
     1559PSF size.
     1560
     1561%% NOTE: This is NOT true: extended source analysis applied to both
     1562%% PASS 1 and PASS 2 sources. 
     1563%%
     1564%% In order for a source to be included in the extended source
     1565%% analysis, it much have been detected in the 'bright source' analysis
     1566%% step ($S/N > 20$, Section~\ref{sec:xxxx}).  \note{is this restriction
     1567%% more or less severe than the mag limits?} 
     1568
     1569The extended source analysis is not applied to all object which may be
     1570galaxies.  Several restrictions are possible within the software.  For
     1571example, it is possible to limit which objects are processed by their
     1572aparent magnitudes, by their signal-to-noise, by an indication if they
     1573are in fact extended, by the local stellar density, or by the galactic
     1574latitude.  Some of these selections may be defined differently for the
     1575galaxy model fits and the Petrosian parameters.
     1576
     1577For the $3\pi$ PV3 processing, both an apparent magnitude cut and a
     1578Galactic latitude cut were applied.  The apparent magnitude limits for
     1579the galaxy model fits are applied to the measured Kron magnitude and
     1580depend on the filter as follows: (\grizy) = (21.5, 21.5, 21.5, 20.5,
     158119.5).  These values were chosen to have roughly similar
     1582signal-to-noise in a typical stack image for neutral color objects.
     1583The magnitude limits for the Petrosian parameters were set to 25.0 for
     1584all filters, far below the detection limits and effectively not
     1585limiting the analysis based on apparent magnitude. For both galaxy
     1586model fits and Petrosian parameters, the Galactic latitude cut was
     1587defined by $|b| > b_{\rm min}$ where $b_{\rm min} = b_0 + r_b
     1588e^{\frac{-l^2}{2 \sigma_b^2}}$.  For the PV3 analysis, $b_0 =
     1589$20\degree, $r_b = $15\degree, $\sigma_b = $50\degree.  This contour
     1590avoids the denser portions of the Galactic plane and bulge, limiting
     1591the total time spent on the galaxy modeling analysis at the expense of
     1592galaxy photometry in the plane (though Kron photometry is available
     1593for those sources).

    16751744local sky value, the Exponential and DeVaucouleur profiles have 7 free
    16761745parameters and the Sersic profile has the additional free parameter of
    1677 the Sersic index $n$.
    1678 
    1679 In this stage, the galaxy model is convolved with an approximation to
    1680 our best guess for the PSF model at the location of the galaxy.  For
    1681 the PV3 analysis, all sources detected in the 'bright source' analysis
    1682 step ($S/N > 20$) were fitted with all three galaxy models, unless (a)
    1683 the morphological test identified the source as a likely cosmic ray
     1746the Sersic index $n$.  In this stage, the galaxy model is convolved
     1747with an approximation to our best guess for the PSF model at the
     1748location of the galaxy.
     1749
     1750Sources which passed the extended source restrictions described above
     1751were fitted with all three galaxy models, unless (a) the morphological
     1752test identified the source as a likely cosmic ray
    16841753(Section~\ref{sec:source.size}) or (b) the peak of the PSF profile was
    1685 above the saturation limit for the chip \citep[see the discussion in
    1686 ][ regarding the masking of saturated pixels]{waters2017}.  Sources in
    1687 the denser portions of the Galactic plane and bulge were not included
    1688 in the analysis.  This restriction limited the total time spent on the
    1689 galaxy modeling analysis at the expense of galaxy photometry in the
    1690 plane (though Kron photometry is available for those sources).  The
    1691 Galactic Plane region was defined by $|b| > b_{\rm min}$ where $b_{\rm
    1692   min} = b_0 + r_b e^{\frac{-l^2}{2 \sigma_b^2}}$.  For the PV3
    1693 analysis, $b_0 = $20\degree, $r_b = $15\degree, $\sigma_b = $50\degree.
     1754above the saturation limit for the chip \citep[see the discussion
