omphotom (omphotom-1.5.1) [xmmsas_20230412_1735-21.0.0]

Notes

Whilst there are a large number of command-line parameters, frequently many of them will not be required.

Please note the following:

1. The parameters imageset, oldsrclistset and newsrclistset are always required.
2. The parameters sourceno and phototype are always required.
3. If all the sources are going to be computed using a “fixed” background, then the parameters innera and outera are not required.
4. If all the sources are going to be treated as “point-sources” then the parameters axialratio and pa are not required.
5. If all the values in the parameter photometrytype list are 3 to 7 (PSF fitting), then the parameter aperturer is not required.
6. If more than one source is listed in the parameter sourceno then the length of the lists of each photometry parameter must be the same as the number of the sources. The number of the parameter in the list corresponds to the source number in the sourceno list.
