How can I carry out spectroscopy of extended sources with PACS?
Posted by Mark Kidger on 02 October 2018 12:33 PM

Extended sources provide the user with a particular set of problems that require special techniques.

We assume that you have watched the Herschel Science Centre short videotutorial called Starting with PACS Spectroscopy:

You should also watch the Herschel Science Centre short videotutorial called PACS Cubes in Detail:

Or, at least, are familiar with the contents of these short videotutorials and their associated documentation. There is a Herschel Science Centre short videotutorial that will guide you through the process of processing and analyzing extended sources. You can find the short videotutorial here:

A pre-requisite for processing extended sources is to be familiar with the different spectroscopy products: cubes and tables that are produced when processing PACS spectroscopy.
