Point Spread Function reconstruction for astronomical
ground- and space-based imaging data.


Example
-------

.. code-block:: python

    # get cutout stars in the field of a JWST observation (example import)
    from psfr.util import jwst_example_stars
    star_list_jwst = jwst_example_stars()

    # run PSF reconstruction (see documentation for further options)
    from psfr.psfr import stack_psf
    psf_model, center_list, mask_list = stack_psf(star_list_jwst, oversampling=4,
                                                  saturation_limit=None, num_iteration=50)

We further refer to the example Notebook_ and the Documentation_.

Features
--------

* Iterative PSF reconstruction given cutouts of individual stars or other point-like sources.
* Sub-pixel astrometric shifts calculated and accounted for while performing the PSF reconstruction.
* PSF reconstruction available in super-sampling resolution.
* Masking pixels, saturation levels and other options to deal with artifacts in the data.

Algorithm
---------
The algorithm to iteratively propose a (optionally oversampled) PSF from a set of star cutouts goes as follow:


(1) Stack all the stars for an initial guess of the PSF on the centroid pixel (ignoring sub-pixel offsets)

(2) Fit the subpixel centroid with the PSF model estimate

(3) Shift PSF with sub-pixel interpolation to the sub-pixel position of individual stars

(4) Retrieve residuals of the shifted PSF model relative to the data of the cutouts

(5) Apply an inverse sub-pixel shift of the residuals to be focused on the center of the pixel

(6) Based on the inverse shifted residuals of a set of fixed stars, propose a correction to the previous PSF model

(7) Repeat step (3) - (6) multiple times with the option to repeat step (2)


Details and options for the different steps can be found in the documentation and the source code.


Used by
-------
PSFr is in use with James Webb Space Telescope imaging data (i.e., `Santini et al. 2022  <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2022arXiv220711379S/abstract>`_,
`Merlin et al. 2022  <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2022arXiv220711701M/abstract>`_,
`Yang et al. 2022  <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2022arXiv220713101Y/abstract>`_,
`Ding et al. 2022  <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2022arXiv220903359D/abstract>`_).
The iterative PSF reconstruction procedure was originally developed and used for analyzing strongly lensed quasars
(i.e., `Birrer et al. 2019 <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/#abs/2018arXiv180901274B/abstract>`_
, `Shajib et al. 2018 <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2019MNRAS.483.5649S>`_ ,
`Shajib et al. 2019 <https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2019arXiv191006306S/abstract>`_ ,
`Schmidt et al. 2022 <https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.04696>`_).
