    1111Moving on to Peter's analysis of warp/stack SKY levels, I first confirmed that the ppStack code does not subtract any values from the input warps.  The images are scaled by a multiplicative factor, individual pixels are rejected, and the remainder are summed.  Because of this, the pixel distributions of the stack and the input warps must agree to within a scaling factor.  Looking at histograms of all warps and the stack (which I constructed from the warps listed on Peter's analysis, and adopting the factor of 14 between an individual warp and the stack listed there):
    1212
    13 [[Image(warp_stack-comparison.png)]]
     13[[Image(warp_stack_comparison.png)]]
    1414
    1515Fitting Gaussians to the populated bins from that histogram yield "true" mean and sigma values, with warp "4" being the outlier Peter identified.
