Parameters2
  • Aperture geometry, size, and location in the image are important parameters in aperture photometry. (wikipedia.org)
  • Although there is no hard limitation on the size, it is practically limited by the software's response time in the calculation for a large aperture and sky annulus, and the tool for the user to interactively specify the size parameters includes a subimage that is only about 80 pixels on a side (at this time). (wikipedia.org)
Differential2
  • Based on my reading, I've always thought that guiding was not that critical for differential photometry. (aavso.org)
  • I would like to share a small program I wrote, currently called MetroPSF for the lack of better name, for differential ensemble PSF-fitting photometry. (aavso.org)
Pixels1
  • APT also has pixel-zapping functionality, which can be used to temporarily set the value of select pixels to NaN (not a number), effectively removing them from the aperture-photometry calculations. (wikipedia.org)
Colour1
  • These systematic chromatic displacements will be calibrated as part of the on-ground data analysis using the colour information provided by the photometry of each observed object. (esa.int)
Sources4

Measurements1
  • Given that we strive for accurate measurements in all aspects of photometry, maybe I should be guiding as well. (aavso.org)
Images1
  • SExtractor's "double image mode" makes it possible to get photometry with perfectly matched apertures in multiple images. (uvic.ca)
Large2
  • Large apertures suffer far less from scintillation than small apertures. (aavso.org)
  • This allows both functions to take benefit from the two viewing directions and from the large ASTRO aperture, and to operate in densely populated sky areas. (esa.int)
Background1
  • This is similar to common aperture photometry algorithms found in other software except that a 2D model of the background is subtracted from the image, so sky annuli are not used. (aavso.org)
Sizes2
  • Each source was fit by a 2D Gaussian profile to determine the offsets and aperture sizes. (uni-koeln.de)
  • The apertures sizes were 0.28′′, 0.56′′, 1.12′′ and 2.24′′ (corresponding to 2×, 3×, 8× and 16× the point-spread function (PSF) of the F444W image, respectively), and also the isophotal (segmentation) aperture. (stsci.edu)
Light1
Stars1
