The nominal output of a CCD--element to a quantum of light
can be given as
This equation does not account for charge transfer inefficiencies and other effects known to exist in CCDs.
The dark current and the cold columns contribute to the additive term A; the
quantum-- and transfer--efficiency enter into the multiplicative term
. It is known that the response of the CCD is essentially linear so
the non--linear terms are generally neglected. The Bias is normally added to the
output electronically to avoid problems with digitising values near to zero.
The objective of the first step in reducing CCD--images is to determine the
relative intensity of a science data frame. In order to do this,
two more frames are required in addition to the science picture, namely:
where ICONS represents a flux from a uniform source, and BIAS is a constant signal which is added to the video signal of the CCD before being digitised.
The DARK--current is measured in the absence of any external input signal:
Combining Eqs.(), (
) and
(
) we isolate:
ICONS can be any number. If set to the average signal of the dark--corrected FLAT--frame or a subimage thereof:
then the reduced intensity frame INT_FRM will have similar data values as the original SCIE_FRM.
