Basic Info

Extracting Basic Information from the QubicFP object

Once you have read a QubicStudio dataset, you have access to a number of simple methods to view basic information. For example:

>>> a=qubicfp()
>>> a.read_qubicstudio_dataset('/path/to/dataset/')

>>> a.azimuth() # azimuth data
>>> a.elevation() # elevation data
>>> a.timeaxis(datatype='sci',axistype='pps',asic=1) # the time axis for science data
>>> a.timeaxis(dataytpe='platform',axistype='pps') # the time axis for azimuth/elevation data
>>> a.infotext() # text suitable for a title or subtitle on plots
>>> a.obsdate # the date at the beginning of the observation in UT.  This is a python datetime object
>>> a.endobs # the date at the end of the observation in UT.  This is a python datetime object
>>> a.dataset_name # this is the name of the dataset.  It is the same as the directory name
>>> a.temperature # this is the TES bath temperature in K
>>> a.tod() # returns a tuple with the timeaxis and the full array of science data
>>> a.calsource() # returns calsource modulation data
>>> a.calsource_info() # returns a dictionary with the calsource parameters

Otherwise, you can find all housekeeping data in the hk dictionary. Try, for example:

>>> a.hk.keys() # the housekeeping categories
>>> a.hk['INTERN_HK'].keys() # the so-called "internal hk" including platform data, carbon fibre,...
