astscript-radial-profile - Create a radial profile of an object in an image

astscript-radial-profile [OPTION] FITS-files

This script is part of GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.17.

This script will consider the input image for constructing the radial profile around a given center with elliptical apertures.

For more information, please run any of the following commands. In particular the first contains a very comprehensive explanation of this script's invocation: expected input(s), output(s), and a full description of all the options.

Inputs/Outputs and options:
$ info astscript-radial-profile
Full Gnuastro manual/book:
$ info gnuastro

If you couldn't find your answer in the manual, you can get direct help from experienced Gnuastro users and developers. For more information, please run:

$ info help-gnuastro

Input:
-h, --hdu=STR
HDU/extension of all input FITS files.
-O, --mode=STR
Coordinate mode: img or wcs.
-c, --center=FLT,FLT
Coordinate of the center along 2 axes.
-R, --rmax=FLT
Maximum radius for the radial profile (in pixels).
-Q, --axisratio=FLT
Axis ratio for ellipse profiles (A/B).
-a, --azimuth=FLT,FLT
Azimuthal angles range (from the major axis).

-p, --positionangle=FLT Position angle for ellipse profiles.

-s, --sigmaclip=FLT,FLT Sigma-clip multiple and tolerance.

-z, --zeropoint=FLT

-t, --tmpdir
Directory to keep temporary files.
-k, --keeptmp
Keep temporal/auxiliar files.
-m, --measure=STR

-v, --oversample
Oversample for higher resolution radial profile.
-u, --undersample=INT
Undersample for lower resolution radial profile.
-i, --instd=FLT/STR
Sky standard deviation per pixel, as a single number or as the filename.
-d, --stdhdu=STR
HDU/extension of the sky standard deviation image.
Operating mode:
-?, --help
Print this help list.
--cite
BibTeX citation for this program.
