hifv_selfcal

hifv_selfcal(vis=None, refantignore=None, combine=None, selfcalmode=None, refantmode=None, overwrite_modelcol=None) → ResultsList[Results][source]

Perform phase-only self-calibration, per scan row, on VLASS SE images.

Parameters:

  • vis -- The list of input MeasurementSets. Defaults to the list of MeasurementSets specified in the hifv_importdata task.

  • refantignore -- String list of antennas to ignore.

  • combine -- Data axes which to combine for solve. Options: '','obs','scan','spw',field', or any comma-separated combination in a single string Example: combine='scan,spw' - Extend solutions over scan boundaries (up to the solint), and combine spws for solving. In selfcalmode='VLASS-SE' use the default value.

  • selfcalmode -- Heuristics mode selection. Known modes are 'VLASS' and 'VLASS-SE'. Default value is 'VLASS'.

  • refantmode -- Reference antenna mode.

  • overwrite_modelcol -- Always write the model column, even if it already exists.

Returns:

The results object for the pipeline task is returned.

Examples

  1. Basic selfcal task:

>>> hifv_selfcal()

  1. VLASS-SE selfcal usage:

>>> hifv_selfcal(selfcalmode='VLASS-SE', combine='field, spw')
