HI 1A – Shutterless/Flatfield Corrected Image (secchi_prep)
HI 1A – small-scale flatfield • Take series of images (at least 3) • Find the minimum value per pixel • Low-pass filter this background • Pixel-to-pixel variations are the difference between the two over small areas of the CCD • Do this many times to build up statistics for each pixel
HI 1A – large-scale flatfield • Identify stars in image • Wait for them to drift through the field of view • Measure the variation in their intensities as they do so. • Do this for many stars.
