.. _profiles: Profiles (`photutils.profiles`) =============================== Introduction ------------ `photutils.profiles` provides tools to calculate radial profiles and curves of growth using concentric circular apertures. Preliminaries ------------- Let’s start by making a synthetic image of a single source. Note that there is no background in this image. One should background-subtract the data before creating a radial profile or curve of growth. >>> import numpy as np >>> from astropy.modeling.models import Gaussian2D >>> from photutils.datasets import make_noise_image >>> gmodel = Gaussian2D(42.1, 47.8, 52.4, 4.7, 4.7, 0) >>> yy, xx = np.mgrid[0:100, 0:100] >>> data = gmodel(xx, yy) >>> error = make_noise_image(data.shape, mean=0., stddev=2.4, seed=123) >>> data += error .. plot:: import matplotlib.pyplot as plt import numpy as np from astropy.modeling.models import Gaussian2D from astropy.visualization import simple_norm from photutils.datasets import make_noise_image # create an artificial single source gmodel = Gaussian2D(42.1, 47.8, 52.4, 4.7, 4.7, 0) yy, xx = np.mgrid[0:100, 0:100] data = gmodel(xx, yy) error = make_noise_image(data.shape, mean=0., stddev=2.4, seed=123) data += error norm = simple_norm(data, 'sqrt') plt.figure(figsize=(5, 5)) plt.imshow(data, norm=norm) Creating a Radial Profile ------------------------- Photutils provides the :class:`~photutils.profiles.RadialProfile` class for computing radial profiles. The radial bins are defined by inputting a 1D array of radial edges. The radial spacing does not need to be constant. First, we'll use the `~photutils.centroids.centroid_quadratic` function to find the source centroid:: >>> from photutils.centroids import centroid_quadratic >>> xycen = centroid_quadratic(data, xpeak=48, ypeak=52) >>> print(xycen) # doctest: +FLOAT_CMP [47.61226319 52.04668132] Now, let's create a radial profile. The radial profile will be centered at our centroid position computed above. >>> from photutils.profiles import RadialProfile >>> edge_radii = np.arange(25) >>> rp = RadialProfile(data, xycen, edge_radii, error=error, mask=None) The `~photutils.profiles.RadialProfile.radius` (radial bin centers), `~photutils.profiles.RadialProfile.profile`, and `~photutils.profiles.RadialProfile.profile_error` attributes contain the output 1D `~numpy.ndarray` objects:: >>> print(rp.radius) # doctest: +FLOAT_CMP [ 0.5 1.5 2.5 3.5 4.5 5.5 6.5 7.5 8.5 9.5 10.5 11.5 12.5 13.5 14.5 15.5 16.5 17.5 18.5 19.5 20.5 21.5 22.5 23.5] >>> print(rp.profile) # doctest: +FLOAT_CMP [ 4.15632243e+01 3.93402079e+01 3.59845746e+01 3.15540506e+01 2.62300757e+01 2.07297033e+01 1.65106801e+01 1.19376723e+01 7.75743772e+00 5.56759777e+00 3.44112671e+00 1.91350281e+00 1.17092981e+00 4.22261078e-01 9.70256904e-01 4.16355795e-01 1.52328707e-02 -6.69985111e-02 4.15522650e-01 2.48494731e-01 4.03348112e-01 1.43482678e-01 -2.62777461e-01 7.30653622e-02] >>> print(rp.profile_error) # doctest: +FLOAT_CMP [1.69588246 0.81797694 0.61132694 0.44670831 0.49499835 0.38025361 0.40844702 0.32906672 0.36466713 0.33059274 0.29661894 0.27314739 0.25551933 0.27675376 0.25553986 0.23421017 0.22966813 0.21747036 0.23654884 0.22760386 0.23941711 0.20661313 0.18999134 0.17469024] If desired, the radial profiles can be normalized using the :meth:`~photutils.profiles.RadialProfile.normalize` method.

We use the simulated image defined above and the same source centroid. The curve of growth will be centered at our centroid position.
