     2689Weak-lensing studies frequently use non-parametric measurements of the
     2690ellipticities of galaxies to quantify the strength of gravitational
     2691lensing, and thus directly measure mass distributions in the Universe.
     2692The classic approach was originally described by
     2693\cite{1995ApJ...449..460K} and applied to a set of deep HST
     2694observations.  The details of the technique were further refined by
     2695\cite{1998ApJ...504..636H}; in the discussion below we primarily use
     2696their notation, though we explicitly cast their integrals as sums over
     2697discrete pixels.
     2698
     2699The KSB-style analysis of object ellipticities has also been used by
     2700several authors to search for margially-resolved binary stars
     2701in wide-field imaging data.  The use of the lensing statistics for
     2702this application was described by \cite{2005ApJ...626.1070H} in the
     2703context of vetting planet transit events in data from the Optical
     2704Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE).  \cite{2013ApJS..206...18T}
     2705applied the techinique to PTF data to search for binary stars and
     2706\cite{2017MNRAS.468.3499D} used the same technique to search for
     2707binary companions to known ultracool dwarfs using Pan-STARRS $\3pi$
     2708data.  The work by \cite{2017MNRAS.468.3499D} used images and their
     2709own analysis of the pixels with the program Sextractor
     2710\citep{Bertin.ref}.
     2711
     2712For the Pan-STARRS $\3pi$ PV3 analysis, we have measured the full set
     2713of KSB lensing parameters for \note{which subset?} of the data to
     2714enable both lensing studies and binary / multiple star searches.  Here
     2715we describe the measurements as performed within \ippprog{psphot},
     2716reviewing the mathematical framework as described by
     2717\cite{1995ApJ...449..460K} and \cite{1998ApJ...504..636H}.
     2718
     2719The goal of the KSB technique is to measure the intrinsic ellipticity
     2720of objects (i.e., galaxies, in the case of weak lensing studies) as
     2721would be observed sky on the without instrumental effects.  The
     2722analysis starts with the observed ellipticity of the object as
     2723represented by the two polarization components derived from the second
     2724moments (see Section~\ref{sec:moments}):
     2725\begin{eqnarray}
     2726  e_1 = \frac{M_{xx} - M_{yy}}{M_{xx} + M_{yy}} \\
     2727  e_2 = \frac{2 M_{xy}}{M_{xx} + M_{yy}}. \\
     2728\end{eqnarray}
     2729These two quantities have values which range from -1 to +1, with a
     2730circularly-symmetric object having $(e_1,e_2) = 0.0,0.0$.  The two
     2731polarization components vary sinusoidally with twice the position
     2732angle of the object: an elongated object aligned with the $x$-pixel
     2733axis will have positive values of $e_1$ and $e_2$ values near zero,
     2734while the same object aligned with the $y$-pixel axis will negative
     2735$e_1$ values.  An object with a position angle on the 45\degree\ lines
     2736between the pixel axes will have large positive or negative values of
     2737$e_2$ and low absoluate values of $e_1$.
     2738
     2739\note{need for the window function}.
     2740
     2741The observed ellipticity of an object observed in a real instrument
     2742will be affected by the instrumental signature of the instrument.  To
     2743first order, the effect on the polarization components can be
     2744described as a combination of ``smear'', in which the observed shape
     2745is more circularized (driving $e_1,e_2$ to low absolute values) and
     2746``shear'', in which the observed shape is stretched in one direction
     2747relative to the others (driving $e_1,e_2$ to larger absolute values).
     2748With sufficient understanding of the image PSF, both shear and smear
     2749terms can be corrected.
