Summary

A gallery of diffim issues with PS1/GPC1 data prompted by Steve Hartung visit the week of Feb. 25, 2013 demonstrating/testing his method of Image subtraction noise reduction using point spread function cross-correlation ​http://arxiv.org/abs/1301.1413.

Larry has provided a sample of exposures with known movers and varying diffim quality

more difficult sample

Larry suggested ones of poorer quality, but <50% filled skycells (edge chips, which ones?)
