Analysis of isoplanatic high resolution stellar fields by the StarFinder code
2000
We describe a new code for the deep analysis of stellar elds, designed for Adaptive Optics (AO) Nyquist- sampled images with high and low Strehl ratio. The Point Spread Function (PSF) is extracted directly from the im- age frame, to take into account the actual structure of the instrumental response and the atmospheric eects. The code is written in IDL language and organized in the form of a self-contained widget-based application, pro- vided with a series of tools for data visualization and anal- ysis. A description of the method and some applications to AO data are presented.
