How to write your own CASA task
- Analysis Utilities (python module) --- A Python module containing utilities for analysis and plotting, including:
- Plotbandpass --- a faster version of plotcal for bandpass tables, with useful overlay capabilities
- Spectralindex --- performs a least-squares fit to the multi-spw output from fluxscale
- TimeOnSource --- compute the total time spent integrating on-source for each specified field
- findsources (task) --- This CASA task will find sources from VIZIER catalogs to place outlier fields on them for clean
- listsdm (task) --- A CASA task to list the contents of the SDM archive files
- stitch (task) --- A CASA task that replaces some channels of a spectral with those of a second spectral window. This is useful, e.g., to remove the 128MHz "suckout" frequency ranges and replace them with channels from a slightly frequency-shifted second baseband
- makeschedule (task) --- A CASA Task to create complete schedules for JVLA observations that can be imported as a scan lists into the OPT, including initial setup, observations of flux and banpass calibrators, pointing scans, and phase calibrators.
CASA User-contributed Scripts
- plotWX --- Plot the weather conditions and calculate the opacity for each spectral window (EVLA)
- Align Cubes by Velocity --- A script that will align two data cubes along their velocity axes
- Mosaicking Utilities --- A few utilities to help setting up and reducing mosaicking observations
- Transient Reduction pipeline (script) --- Simple reduction of data taken in continuum mode to determine a flux density of an essentially unresolved or only partially resolved source
