Task: uvjup
Purpose: Recompute various derived quantitues in a uv data-set
Categories: uv analysis
uvjup recomputes various derived quantities in a uv data-set.
This may be needed if the derived quantities are wrong for some
reason, or if there is a need to change a coordinate system.
NOTE: The recomputation relies on a number of parameters in the
data-set, such as "time". It is assumed that this information is
correct. Uv variables that are important are:
For velocity: time and latitu,longitu (or telescop is these are
missing).
Key: vis
The name of the input uv data set. No default.
Key: select
The normal uv selection commands. The default is to select everything.
Key: pltb
Blackbody temperature of the disk to subtract off. Default is 0.
Key: out
The name of the output uv data-set. There is no default name.
Key: options
This gives extra processing options. Several options can be given,
each separated by commas. They may be abbreviated to the minimum
needed to avoid ambiguity. Possible options are:
'jupaxis' Set magnetic axis as the relevant one.
The following options can be used to turn off calibration corrections.
The default is to apply any calibration present.
'nocal' Do not apply the gains table.
'nopass' Do not apply bandpass corrections.
'nopol' Do not apply polarizatiopn corrections.
Key: pmotion
Two Jupiter tracking files. The first gives the phase centre
(as a function of time) of Jupiter. The second
gives the phase centre of the observation (as a function of time).
The latter defaults to the position given in the dataset.
A phase shift is applied to the data to correct for differences
between these two.
