MUSE specific tools (mpdaf.MUSE)

Python interface for MUSE slicer numbering scheme

The Slicer class contains a set of static methods to convert a slice number between the various numbering schemes. The definition of the various numbering schemes and the conversion table can be found in the “Global Positioning System” document (VLT-TRE-MUSE-14670-0657).

All the methods are static and thus there is no need to instantiate an object to use this class.

For example, we convert slice number 4 in CCD numbering to SKY numbering:

In [1]: from mpdaf.MUSE import Slicer

In [2]: Slicer.ccd2sky(4)
Out[2]: 10

Now we convert slice number 12 of stack 3 in OPTICAL numbering to CCD numbering:

In [3]: Slicer.optical2sky((2, 12))
Out[3]: 25

MUSE LSF models

Warning

LSF class is currently under development

Only one model of LSF (Line Spread Function) is currently available.

LSF qsim_v1

This is a simple model where the LSF is supposed to be constant over the filed of view. It uses a simple parametric model of variation with wavelength.

The model is a convolution of a step function with a Gaussian. The resulting function is then sample by the pixel size:

LSF = T(y2+dy/2) - T(y2-dy/2) - T(y1+dy/2) + T(y1-dy/2)

T(x) = exp(-x**2/2) + sqrt(2*pi)*x*erf(x/sqrt(2))/2

y1 = (y-h/2) / sigma

y2 = (y+h/2) / sigma

The slit width is assumed to be constant (h = 2.09 pixels). The Gaussian sigma parameter is a polynomial approximation of order 3 with wavelength:

c = [-0.09876662, 0.44410609, -0.03166038, 0.46285363]

sigma(x) = c[3] + c[2]*x + c[1]*x**2 + c[0]*x**3

To use it, create a LSF object with attribute ‘typ’ equal to ‘qsim_v1’:

In [4]: from mpdaf.MUSE import LSF

In [5]: lsf = LSF(typ='qsim_v1')

Then get the LSF array by using get_LSF:

In [6]: lsf_6000 = lsf.get_LSF(lbda=6000, step=1.25, size=11)

In [7]: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

In [8]: import numpy as np

In [9]: plt.plot(np.arange(-5,6), lsf_6000, drawstyle='steps-mid')
Out[9]: [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D at 0x7fe7012ff940>]

MUSE FSF models

Warning

FSF class is currently under development

Two models of FSF (Field Spread Function) are currently available:

  • OldMoffatModel (model='MOFFAT1'): the old model with a fixed beta [DEPRECATED].

  • MoffatModel2 (model=2): a circular MOFFAT with polynomials for beta and FWHM.

Example with MoffatModel2

The MUSE FSF is modelled as a Circular Moffat function with a FWHM and beta parameter which varies with the wavelength according to:

\(FWHM = p_0 \times l^n + p_1 \times l^{n-1} + p_n\)

\(\beta = k_0 \times l^m + k_1 \times l^{m-1} + k_m\)

\(l = (\lambda - \lambda_1) / (\lambda_2 - \lambda_1) - 0.5\)

With:

  • \(p_i\) polynomial coefficient for FWHM polynomial approximation

  • n FWHM polynomial degre

  • \(k_i\) polynomial coefficient for beta polynomial approximation

  • m beta polynomial degre

  • \(\lambda_1\),:math:lambda_2 reference wavelength for normalisation

We create the FSFModel object like this:

In [10]: from mpdaf.MUSE import FSFModel, MoffatModel2

In [11]: fsf = MoffatModel2(fwhm_pol=[-0.2, 0.7], beta_pol=[2.8], lbrange=[4800,9300], pixstep=0.2)

In [12]: fsf.info()

[INFO] FWHM (arcsec): 0.80-0.60
[INFO] Beta Poly: [2.8]
[INFO] Beta values: 2.80-2.80

There are various way to create a fsf model, by fitting a point source or by using the external PSF reconstruction module muse_psfrec.

The fsf.fit dictionary can be used to check the fit quality:

fig,ax = plt.subplots(1,2)
ax[0].plot(fsf.fit['wave'], fsf.fit['fwhmfit'], 'ok')
ax[0].plot(fsf.fit['wave'], fsf.fit['fwhmpol'], '-r')
ax[1].plot(fsf.fit['wave'], fsf.fit['betafit'], 'ok')
ax[1].plot(fsf.fit['wave'], fsf.fit['betapol'], '-r')
ax[1].set_ylim(2,3)

Using psfrec

If the MUSE observations have been done in GLAO WFM mode, then one can get a fsf model from the AO telemetry information saved in the raw data.

Warning

The psfrec module must be installed. Check https://muse-psfr.readthedocs.io for information.

Methods

Various methods allow one to get the FSF array (2D or 3D, as mpdaf Image or Cube) for given wavelengths, or the FWHM in pixel and in arcseconds.

In [13]: lbda = np.array([5000, 9000])

In [14]: fsf.get_fwhm(lbda)
Out[14]: array([0.79111111, 0.61333333])

In [15]: fsf.get_fwhm(lbda, unit='pix')
Out[15]: array([3.95555556, 3.06666667])

In [16]: im5000 = fsf.get_2darray(lbda[0], shape=(25, 25))

In [17]: fsfcube = fsf.get_3darray(lbda, shape=(25, 25))

In [18]: plt.figure()
Out[18]: <Figure size 640x480 with 0 Axes>

In [19]: plt.imshow(im5000)
Out[19]: <matplotlib.image.AxesImage at 0x7fe703c371c0>

In [20]: plt.figure()
Out[20]: <Figure size 640x480 with 0 Axes>

In [21]: plt.imshow(fsfcube[1])
Out[21]: <matplotlib.image.AxesImage at 0x7fe703df4130>

The FSF model can be saved to a FITS header with mpdaf.MUSE.FSFModel.to_header, and read with mpdaf.MUSE.FSFModel.read.

MUSE mosaic field map

Warning

FieldsMap class is currently under development

FieldsMap reads the possible FIELDMAP extension of the MUSE data cube.

In [22]: from mpdaf.MUSE import FieldsMap

In [23]: fmap = FieldsMap('sdetect/subcub_mosaic.fits', extname='FIELDMAP')

get_pixel_fields returns a list of fields that cover a given pixel (y, x):

In [24]: fmap.get_pixel_fields(0,0)
Out[24]: ['UDF-06', 'UDF-09']

In [25]: fmap.get_pixel_fields(20,20)
Out[25]: ['UDF-06']

get_field_mask returns an array with non-zeros values for pixels matching a field:

In [26]: plt.figure()
Out[26]: <Figure size 640x480 with 0 Axes>

In [27]: plt.imshow(fmap.get_field_mask('UDF-06'), vmin=0, vmax=1)
Out[27]: <matplotlib.image.AxesImage at 0x7fe7017643a0>

In [28]: plt.figure()
