... Imaging interferometry data presents us with two challenges: the aperture plane (i.e. the complex visibility function) is sparsely sampled, and the baseline phases are "totally corrupted" by the atmosphere while the closure phases, i.e. the sum of three closed loop baseline phases, is free of systematic errors. The two algorithms to take care of these challenges are deconvolution and phase self-calibration. The deconvolution algorithm we use is the CLEAN algorithm. ...

... 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. ...
