muse_scipost_make_cube - Make a MUSE cube from a MUSE pixel table.

esorex muse_scipost_make_cube [OPTIONS] FILE.sof

This recipe takes a pixel table and resamples it to either a FITS cube or a Euro3D table and optionally to a stacked spectrum. This is a part of the muse_scipost recipe.

Cut off the data below this wavelength after loading the pixel table(s). (float; default: 4000.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.lambdamin [default = 4000.0].
Cut off the data above this wavelength after loading the pixel table(s). (float; default: 10000.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.lambdamax [default = 10000.0].
The resampling technique to use for the final output cube. (str; default: ´drizzle´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.resample [default = drizzle].
Horizontal step size for resampling (in arcsec or pixel). The following defaults are taken when this value is set to 0.0: 0.2´´ for WFM, 0.025´´ for NFM, 1.0 if data is in pixel units. (float; default: 0.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.dx [default = 0.0].
Vertical step size for resampling (in arcsec or pixel). The following defaults are taken when this value is set to 0.0: 0.2´´ for WFM, 0.025´´ for NFM, 1.0 if data is in pixel units. (float; default: 0.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.dy [default = 0.0].
Wavelength step size (in Angstrom). Natural instrument sampling is used, if this is 0.0 (float; default: 0.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.dlambda [default = 0.0].
Type of statistics used for detection of cosmic rays during final resampling. "iraf" uses the variance information, "mean" uses standard (mean/stdev) statistics, "median" uses median and the median median of the absolute median deviation. (str; default: ´median´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.crtype [default = median].
Sigma rejection factor to use for cosmic ray rejection during final resampling. A zero or negative value switches cosmic ray rejection off. (float; default: 15.0). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.crsigma [default = 15.0].
Critical radius for the "renka" resampling method. (float; default: 1.25). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.rc [default = 1.25].
Pixel down-scaling factor for the "drizzle" resampling method. Up to three, comma-separated, floating-point values can be given. If only one value is given, it applies to all dimensions, two values are interpreted as spatial and spectral direction, respectively, while three are taken as horizontal, vertical, and spectral. (str; default: ´0.8,0.8´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.pixfrac [default = 0.8,0.8].
Number of adjacent pixels to take into account during resampling in all three directions (loop distance); this affects all resampling methods except "nearest". (int; default: 1). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.ld [default = 1].
Type of output file format, "Cube" is a standard FITS cube with NAXIS=3 and multiple extensions (for data and variance). The extended "x" formats include the reconstructed image(s) in FITS image extensions within the same file. (str; default: ´Cube´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.format [default = Cube].
If true, write an additional output file in form of a 2D stacked image (x direction is pseudo-spatial, y direction is wavelength). (bool; default: False). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.stacked [default = False].
The filter name(s) to be used for the output field-of-view image. Each name has to correspond to an EXTNAME in an extension of the FILTER_LIST file. If an unsupported filter name is given, creation of the respective image is omitted. If multiple filter names are given, they have to be comma separated. (str; default: ´white´). The full name of this option for the EsoRex configuration file is muse.muse_scipost_make_cube.filter [default = white].

Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing these options, along with suitable default values. Please refer to the details provided by the 'esorex --help' command.
