Description

When executing the simulation for imaging, having an emission line as a source, the result signal is zero.

History

#1 Updated by Nikolaos APOSTOLAKOS over 1 year ago

  • Status changed from New to Resolved

The method for integrating the source and background fluxes for imaging was using the Romberg algorithm. This algorithm is using the extended trapezoidal rule and because of that it was missing such fluctuations as an emission line. I changed completely the way the calculation of the integral is done for imaging and also the integral for slitless spectroscopy background calculation. Now the internally generated high resolution templates are used, so no flux is lost. This fix will be available in version 0.3.2.

Closing the bug because the fix is confirmed to work from 0.3.2.
