1 UV_SUBTRACT UV_SUBTRACT: "Self"-Calibration of a UV data set UV_SUBTRACT subtracts a time average continuum UV table from a spectral line one, typically to provide continuum-free spectral line maps. Caution: it will not work if the continuum source is too complex, because of the time averaging. 2 UV_TABLE$ TASK\CHARACTER "Output UV table" UV_TABLE$ UV table from which a continuum must be subtracted. 2 SELF$ TASK\CHARACTER "UV table used as continuum" SELF$ Gaussian source reference UV table 2 DTIME$ TASK\REAL"The smoothing time constant in seconds" DTIME$ Integration time to derive continuum value. Signal to noise MUST BE SUFFICIENT not to add noise in the spectral line UV table. But integration time should be short enough to avoid smearing of spatial features..ti -4 2 WCOL$ TASK\INTEGER "The continuum channel" WCOL$ If the reference SELF$ is a spectral line UV table, spectral channel to be used to define the continuum. 2 SUB$ TASK\REAL "Fraction of the continuum source to subtract" SUB$ Typically 1 or 0, to remove or not the continuum source. 1 END
