| | 49 | * Dark: Worked on ways to select which order of model is supported by the data in an attempt to only fit quadratic models in temperature when that would not introduce more noise into the dark. This still seems to introduce more noise than a simple linear in temperature model (which has similar introduced noise characteristics as the old linear dark model). Plotting up pixel flux values from a wide range of exposure times and temperatures shows no obvious quadratic term, even in pixels where the quadratic term has been selected by the code. This is also true in corner glow areas, which appear to be linear in temperature as well. Currently constructing a full exposure model where the quadratic term is excluded, in an attempt to see if this is required at all for any OTA. |
| | 50 | * Nebulous: Confirmed that in some cases, the shuffle code is failing to move an instance of the raw data to the long term storage nodes at the ATRC. However, this is not resulting in data loss, as this failed instance (which has zero size) is being detected and the valid second copy is not deleted. Updated neb-stat to identify these files by calculating md5sums for each instance that is available. Corrected shuffle SQL to properly select all files that should be moved. |
| | 51 | * LAP: preliminary work to allow quickstacks to be skipped if only a small fraction of the input exposures are unpaired. This should speed up LAP processing at the expense of a small number of input exposures (usually ~3 / 50-60 total inputs). |
