backprojection

sunkit_instruments.rhessi.backprojection(calibrated_event_list, pixel_size: Unit("arcsec") = <Quantity [1., 1.] arcsec>, image_dim: Unit("pix") = <Quantity [64., 64.] pix>)[source]

Given a stacked calibrated event list fits file create a back projection image.

Warning

The image will not be in the right orientation.

Parameters:

  • calibrated_event_list (str) – Filename of a RHESSI calibrated event list.

  • pixel_size (tuple, optional) – A length 2 tuple with the size of the pixels in arcsecond Quantity. Defaults to (1, 1) * u.arcsec.

  • image_dim (tuple, optional) – A length 2 tuple with the size of the output image in number of pixel Quantity Defaults to (64, 64) * u.pix.

Returns:

A backprojection map.

Return type:

sunpy.map.sources.RHESSImap
