The KMOS 1.3.4 pipeline
These pages describe the python interface for the KMOS pipeline recipes.
Standard recipes
- kmos_dark
- Create master dark frame & bad pixel mask
- kmos_flat
- Create master flatfield frame and badpixel map
- kmos_wave_cal
- Create a wavelength calibration frame
- kmos_illumination
- Create a frame to correct spatial non-uniformity of flatfield
- kmo_std_star
- Create the telluric correction frame.
- kmo_sci_red
- Reconstruct obj/sky-pairs individually and combine them afterwards
Additional recipes
- kmo_fits_check
- Check contents of a KMOS fits-file
- kmo_extract_spec
- Extract a spectrum from a cube.
- kmo_multi_reconstruct
- Reconstruct and combine obj/sky-pairs in one step.
- kmo_sky_tweak
- Removal of OH sky lines
- kmo_shift
- Shift a cube spatially
- kmos_gen_reflines
- Create REFLINES calibration file
- kmo_stats
- Perform basic statistics on a KMOS-conform fits-file
- kmo_arithmetic
- Perform basic arithmetic on cubes
- kmo_fits_strip
- Strip noise, rotator and/or empty extensions from a processed KMOS fits frame
- kmo_combine
- Combine reconstructed cubes
- kmo_illumination_flat
- Alternative to kmo_illumination based on flatfield frames.
- kmo_fit_profile
- Fit spectral line profiles as well as spatial profiles with a simple function - for example to measure resolution or find the centre of a source
- kmo_make_image
- Collapse a cube to create a spatial image
- kmo_sky_mask
- Create a mask of spatial pixels that indicates which pixels can be considered as sky.
- kmo_reconstruct
- Performs the cube reconstruction using different interpolation methods.
- kmo_copy
- Copy a section of a cube to another cube, image or spectrum
- kmo_rotate
- Rotate a cube spatially
- kmo_fits_stack
- Creates KMOS conform fits-files
- kmo_noise_map
- Generate a noise map from a raw frame
Bug reports
If you experience an unexpected behavior of any component of the KMOS
pipeline recipes package, please, first refer to the list of known problems
and limitations in the pipeline manual of the current KMOS pipeline
release.
For any other issues or requests, please, send a report to the ESO User
Support Department, describing:
- the KMOS pipeline version,
- the version of your OS and C compiler,
- the exact sequence of actions that were performed before the problem occurred,
- what were precisely the symptoms and the possible error message(s),
- whether the problem is repeatable.
