Adjusting the PCA output:

 

I use min_qev.sm which in tern it uses the qev.sm which tern it uses qfiter for N=50 the number of eigenspectra.

inside "min_qev.sm"

1) the path_file address should be adjusted to the new address for eigenspectra source in Canis. (done)

2) the redshift and absolute magnitude in i band is required here to fill into qfiter program (I got the DR7 list includes the redshift and iMag; done)

3) out_name is created here too (done)

inside "qev.sm"

1) if input is fits format then we use qfiter(I prefer this)

2) if input is ascii file then we use qfiterT (it is in qev2.sm)

---------

what I have done:

1) I have a copy of the ES (the eigenspectra files) in canis now

/data/arafiee/ES

2) I have adjusted the qev.sm and min1_qev.sm on canis at /data/home/arafiee/work/DR7EVR

to record the coefficient (qsoEigCo) as well as the variance of the coefficient (qsoEigVar) and teh reduced chi squared (outchinu2) in a file with name qsoEigCo_MJD_Plate_Fiber

the reconstructed spectra is recorded in a file   ######qsoEigRecon_MJD_Plate_Fiber

3) the ES directory contains information for eigenspectra up to 50 eigenspectra. I need it up to 100 (since we want to post the coefficient it is better  if we go to higher number)

  1. Hi Ali, what are:
    qsoEigCo ... the eigenspectra coefficients?
    qsoEigVar ... ?
    Cheers, Pat
