CONAN.utils.decontaminate(F, contam_frac)#

decontaminate flux F following prescription by eq. 8 of kipping & Tinetti https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2010.17094.x

Equivalently written as: Fcorr = F*(1+Fcont/F_st)- Fcont/F_st; where contam_frac = Fcont/F_st

Parameters:

  • F (array-like;) – observed contaminated flux that needs correction

  • contam_frac (float;) – fraction of contamination/target flux in aperture i.e. Fcontam/Ftarget

  • Returns

  • --------

  • F_corr (array-like;) – decontaminated flux
