.. title:: Overview The MUSE 2.8.7 pipeline ################################### These pages describe the python interface for the MUSE pipeline recipes. Standard recipes ---------------- :data:`muse_astrometry` Compute an astrometric solution. :data:`muse_bias` Combine several separate bias images into one master bias file. :data:`muse_create_sky` Create night sky model from selected pixels of an exposure of empty sky. :data:`muse_dark` Combine several separate dark images into one master dark file and locate hot pixels. :data:`muse_exp_combine` Combine several exposures into one datacube. :data:`muse_flat` Combine several separate flat images into one master flat file, trace slice locations, and locate dark pixels. :data:`muse_geometry` Compute relative location of the slices within the field of view and measure the instrumental PSF on the detectors. :data:`muse_scibasic` Remove the instrumental signature from the data of each CCD and convert them from an image into a pixel table. :data:`muse_scipost` Prepare reduced and combined science products. :data:`muse_standard` Create a flux response curve from a standard star exposure. :data:`muse_wavecal` Detect arc emission lines and determine the wavelength solution for each slice. Additional recipes -------------------- :data:`muse_ampl` Determine the instrumental throughput from exposures taken with the pico-amplifier / photo diode readings. :data:`muse_exp_align` Create a coordinate offset table to be used to align exposures during exposure combination. :data:`muse_illum` Dummy recipe to convert a raw illumination flat field into a DFS product :data:`muse_lingain` Compute the gain and a model of the residual non-linearity for each detector quadrant :data:`muse_lsf` Compute the LSF :data:`muse_qi_mask` Create image masks for use with the quick image reconstruction. :data:`muse_scipost_apply_astrometry` Calibrate astrometry for MUSE pixel tables. :data:`muse_scipost_calibrate_flux` Calibrate flux for MUSE pixel tables. :data:`muse_scipost_combine_pixtables` Combine MUSE pixel tables, either from different IFUs, or from different exposures, or both. :data:`muse_scipost_correct_dar` Apply DAR correction for MUSE pixel tables. :data:`muse_scipost_correct_rv` Apply RV correction for MUSE pixel tables. :data:`muse_scipost_make_cube` Make a MUSE cube from a MUSE pixel table. :data:`muse_scipost_raman` Remove of 4GLSF Raman emission. :data:`muse_scipost_subtract_sky` Subtract night sky model. :data:`muse_scipost_subtract_sky_simple` Subtract night sky spectrum. :data:`muse_twilight` Combine several twilight skyflats into one cube, compute correction factors for each IFU, and create a smooth 3D illumination correction. .. toctree:: :hidden: muse_astrometry muse_bias muse_create_sky muse_dark muse_exp_combine muse_flat muse_geometry muse_scibasic muse_scipost muse_standard muse_wavecal muse_ampl muse_exp_align muse_illum muse_lingain muse_lsf muse_qi_mask muse_scipost_apply_astrometry muse_scipost_calibrate_flux muse_scipost_combine_pixtables muse_scipost_correct_dar muse_scipost_correct_rv muse_scipost_make_cube muse_scipost_raman muse_scipost_subtract_sky muse_scipost_subtract_sky_simple muse_twilight .. seealso:: * The `MUSE Pipeline User Manual `_ in PDF format, * an `overview `_ over the existing ESO pipelines, * the `python-cpl `_ package. Bug reports =========== If you experience an unexpected behavior of any component of the MUSE pipeline recipes package, please, first refer to the list of known problems and limitations in the pipeline manual of the current MUSE pipeline release. For any other issues or requests, please, send a report to the `ESO User Support Department `_, describing: * the MUSE 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.
