HanningWindow

class photutils.psf.matching.HanningWindow[source]

Bases: SplitCosineBellWindow

Class to define a 2D Hanning (or Hann) window function.

The Hann window is a taper formed by using a raised cosine with ends that touch zero.

Examples

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from photutils.psf import HanningWindow

taper = HanningWindow()
data = taper((101, 101))
plt.imshow(data, cmap='viridis', origin='lower')
plt.colorbar()
