Testing the Automatic Detection of Directly Imaged Exoplanets Using Wavelet Analysis Chris Merchantz Introduction · Challenges associated with direct images of planets Distinguish planets in the following way: (1) a minimum flux threshold is from speckles maxima, anddefined for the features that are identified as local (2) the "Exoplanet Recognition Using a Wavelet Analysis Technique" Fig. ... This spectrum is used as template spectrum to recognize planets in a deep image. ...

The process of determining the number and characteristics of sources in astronomical images is so fundamental to a large range of astronomical problems that it is perhaps surprising that no standard procedure has ever been defined that has well understood properties with a high degree of statistical rigour on completeness and reliability. ... In this analysis we present results from testing such algorithms as implemented in the SExtractor, Selavy (Duchamp), and sfind tools on simulated data. ...

... Bojan Nikolic web pages home . ... There are quite a few large astronomical data analysis packages like IRAF and CASA which offer tools for filtering and smoothing of astronomical images. ... In particular I found that importing a FITS file into CASA, doing some smoothing and re-exporting to FITS introduced enough changes to the format of to the structure of the image that I could easily continue analysis of the image outside the CASA package. ...

... A detector map is used to provide a grid of positions over which to calculate and flux weight the ARF. The default detector map is 'flat' which has a weighting of 1.0 for each detector map pixel and is rectangular having sides which just encompass the region specified in the DSS. Only detector map pixels falling within the source region are included in the ARF calculation, e.g. for a circular source box, the pixels in the corners of the detector map will be ignored. ... flat : . ...

... It is found that the correlation coefficients between these two parameters calculated separately inside and outside the sunspot formation zone ±30 have cyclic variation and occur in anti-phase. This suggests different mechanisms of formation of the corona in the fields of small, medium, and large scales. ... The relationship between the coronal green line brightness (CGLB) and the magnetic field strength (MFS) has been investigated by constructing the corresponding synoptic maps for the 1977-2001. ...
