Parameters

The parameters module contains useful constants describing the Roman telescope. These include:

  • the default read noise when CRDS is not used

  • the number of border reference pixels (4)

  • the specification of the read indices going into resultants for a fiducial L1 image for a handful of MA tables

  • the read time (3.04 s)

  • the default saturation limit

  • the default IPC kernel

  • the definition of the reference V2/V3 location in the focal plane to which to place the given right ascenscon and declination

  • the default persistence parameters

  • the default cosmic ray parameters

  • the default gain when CRDS is not used

These values can be overridden by specifying a yaml config file on the command line to romanisim-make-image.

See the code for the default values of these quantities.
