linearmosaic.setlinmostype - Function

3.1.3 Use this function to set if you want to mosaic in flatnoise domain

Description

Use this function if the mosaicing is to be done using a non optimal weighting mode.

For now optimal (which is the default) follows this equation

∑ lm --p-Ap(θ)(Ip(θ)Ap(θ))wp I (θ) = ∑p A2p(θ)wp

(3.2)

And pbweight follows this one

∑ lm --p(Ip(θ)Ap(θ))wp- I (θ) = ∑p Ap(θ)wp

(3.3)

where A_p(θ) is the primary beam (PB) of a given pointing p, w_p is a sensitivity weight and the image of that pointing is I_p(θ); the linear mosaic being I^lm(θ) For now w_p = 1
