| 22 | .SH SYNOPSIS
|
|---|
| 23 | .B asap
|
|---|
| 24 | .SH DESCRIPTION
|
|---|
| 25 | This manual page briefly documents the
|
|---|
| 26 | .B asap
|
|---|
| 27 | command. The program has internal help as well.
|
|---|
| 28 | .PP
|
|---|
| 29 | .\" TeX users may be more comfortable with the \fB<whatever>\fP and
|
|---|
| 30 | .\" \fI<whatever>\fP escape sequences to invode bold face and italics,
|
|---|
| 31 | .\" respectively.
|
|---|
| 32 | \fBasap\fP is an interactive ipython shell that lets you process
|
|---|
| 33 | spectroscopic data from astronomical telescopes and make
|
|---|
| 34 | publication-quality plots.
|
|---|
| 35 | .PP
|
|---|
| 36 | The input files can be RPFITS, SDFITS or CASA Measurement Sets,
|
|---|
| 37 | output can be saved as SDFITS or Measurement Set.
|
|---|
| 38 | .SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|---|
| 39 | You may wish to set the following environment variables, to change
|
|---|
| 40 | the program's behaviour.
|
|---|
| 41 | .TP
|
|---|
| 42 | .B ASAPDATA
|
|---|
| 43 | Path to astronomical ephemeris data files. These are needed to allow
|
|---|
| 44 | calculations of radial velocity, rest frequency of various transitions, etc.
|
|---|
| 45 | .PP
|
|---|
| 46 | They will usually be available in your installation of CASA.
|
|---|
| 47 | If your casa installation is at /nfs/casa, the ephemeris data should be
|
|---|
| 48 | in /nfs/casa/data; set ASAPDATA to that path.
|
|---|
| 49 | .PP
|
|---|
| 50 | These data files can also be downloaded from
|
|---|
| 51 | .TP
