| '''In Cycle 9, a new nomenclature was adopted for measurement sets within the ALMA pipeline: uid*targets.ms for the continuum + line (non-continuum-subtracted) target-only data, and uid*targets_line.ms to reference the continuum subtracted data. Data restored with a scriptForPI.py from prior to Cycle 9 will have an incompatible uid*target.ms format, and must be modified to uid*targets.ms to work with the scripts in this guide.'''
| |
| | |
| Additionally, to improve the ease of imaging pipeline reprocessing, a new tool has been developed to streamline the methods detailed below. The documentation for this tool can be found at [[ALMA_Imaging_Pipeline_Reprocessing_Tool | Imaging Pipeline Reprocessing Tool]].
| |
| | |
| == About This Guide ==
| |
| | |
| '''This guide describes some examples for perfecting the interferometric imaging products from the ALMA Cycle 9 Pipeline.''' If your data were manually imaged by ALMA, you should instead consult the scriptForImaging.py delivered with your data.
| |
| | |
| The Section [[#Restore Pipeline Calibration and Prepare for Re-imaging (all Options)|Restore Pipeline Calibration and Prepare for Re-imaging]] describes the first steps to do. After that, the individual sections are self-contained (and they typically assume the "Restore" has been performed). It illustrates how to completely re-run the pipeline from beginning to end in order to reproduce the pipeline run done at your ARC.
| |
| | |
| Additional documentation on the Cycle 9 pipeline can be found in the [https://almascience.nrao.edu/documents-and-tools/cycle9/alma_pipeline_users_guide_2022_1 Pipeline User's Guide] which can also be found at [https://almascience.nrao.edu/processing/science-pipeline the ALMA Science Portal]. The User's guide describes how to obtain the ALMA Pipeline, how to use it to calibrate and image ALMA interferometric (IF) and single-dish (SD) data, and a description of the
| |
| Pipeline WebLog.
| |
| | |
| Note that the scripts described in this guide have only been tested in Linux.
| |
| | |
| == Getting and Starting CASA ==
| |
| | |
| If you do not already have CASA installed on your machine, you will have to download and install it.
| |
| | |
| Download and installation instructions are available here:
| |
| | |
| http://casa.nrao.edu/casa_obtaining.shtml
| |
| | |
| CASA 6.4.1-12 is required to reprocess ALMA Cycle 9 data using the scripts in this guide.
| |
| | |
| NOTE: To use pipeline tasks, you must start CASA with
| |
| | |
| <pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
| |
| casa --pipeline
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| == Restore Pipeline Calibration and Prepare for Re-imaging (all Options) ==
| |
| | |
| '''STEP 1:''' Follow instructions in your QA2 report for restoring pipeline calibrated data using the scriptForPI.py. In general, scriptForPI.py is only compatible with CASA versions similar to the one used for its creation. See the Table at https://almascience.org/processing/science-pipeline for details. NOTE: the SPACESAVING parameter cannot be larger than 1, and for pipeline calibrated and imaged data, scriptForPI.py does not automatically split science spectral windows.
| |
| | |
| Once completed, the following files and directories will be present, with specific things about pipeline re-imaging noted:
| |
| * calibrated/
| |
| ** In cases where the PI explicitly set "DOSPLIT=True" before running scriptForPI.py, this directory contains a file(s) called <uid_name>.ms.split.cal (one for each execution in the MOUS) -- these type of files have been split to contain the calibrated pipeline uv-data in the DATA column, and only the science spectral window ids (spws) that match spws listed in the pipeline weblog or other pipeline produced products like the science target flag template files (*.flagtargetstemplate.txt) or continuum ranges (cont.dat). Though this type of file has been the starting point for manual ALMA imaging, ms.split.cal files CANNOT BE DIRECTLY USED IN THE EXAMPLES GIVEN IN THIS GUIDE.
| |
| ** Provided that the restore is done with a SPACESAVING=1, within the "calibrated" directory there is a "working" directory which does contain the <uid_name>.ms (i.e. no split has been run on them) that is of the form expected as the starting point of the ALMA imaging pipeline. This is the best location to do ALMA pipeline image reprocessing.
| |
| * calibration/
| |
| ** This directory contains a continuum range file named "cont.dat", with the frequency ranges identified by the pipeline as being likely to only contain continuum emission. If the cont.dat is present in the "calibrated/working" directory where pipeline imaging tasks are run, it will be used.
| |
| ** This directory also contains the *.flagtargetstemplate.txt for each execution which can be used to do science target specific flagging.
| |
| * product/
| |
| ** Contains the original pipeline image products.
| |
| * qa/
| |
| ** Contains the original pipeline weblog and the QA2 and QA0 reports. The QAs reports contains summaries of the scheduling block (SB), and calibration and imaging results.
| |
| * raw/
| |
| ** Contains the raw asdm(s).
| |
| * script/
| |
| ** Contains the file scriptForPI.py (named member.<uid_name>.scriptForPI.py) which internally runs member.<uid_name>.hifa_calimage.casa_piperestorescript.py and other necessary tasks to restore the data.
| |
| ** Also contains member.<uid_name>.hifa_calimage.casa_pipescript.py, a full CASA pipeline script that reproduces all pipeline products and <mous_name>.hifa_calimage.casa_commands.log which contains all the equivalent casa commands run during the course of the pipeline processing, in particular the tclean commands to make the image products.
| |
| | |
| '''STEP 2:''' Change to directory that contains the calibrated data suitable for running pipeline imaging tasks (i.e. *.ms) called "calibrated/working" after the pipeline restore and start CASA 6.4.1-12.
| |
| <pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
| |
| casa --pipeline
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| '''STEP 3:''' Run the following commands in CASA to copy the cont.dat file that contains the frequency ranges used to create the continuum images and the continuum subtraction, and the flag target template file (*.flagtargetstemplate.txt) for each execution which can be used to do science target specific flagging, to the directory you will be working in.
| |
| <source lang="python">
| |
| os.system('cp ../../calibration/cont.dat ./cont.dat')
| |
| os.system('cp ../../calibration/*.flagtargetstemplate.txt ./*.flagtargetstemplate.txt)
| |
| </source>
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| == Alternative to scriptForPI: Restore calibrated data in latest CASA (Cycle 5 and later data) ==
| |
| | |
| After retrieving and untarring the archive tarballs, one finds the following directories
| |
| * calibration/
| |
| ** Contains the original pipeline calibration and flagging information.
| |
| * raw/
| |
| ** Contains the raw asdm(s), with "asdm.sdm" appended.
| |
| | |
| Create a set of three directories anywhere, with these contents:
| |
| * products/
| |
| ** this entire directory can be a symbolic link to your calibration/ directory retrieved from the archive, or you can copy the contents from that directory to this one. It will only be read, not written to. You will also need to copy the *pipeline_manifest.xml file from the script/ directory to this location.
| |
| * rawdata/
| |
| ** this needs to contain links to all of the ASDMs in your raw/ directory retrieved from the archive, *with the "asdm.sdm" removed* e.g.
| |
| <source lang="python">
| |
| ln -s ..../raw/uid___A002_Xe3da01_X18fa.asdm.sdm uid___A002_Xe3da01_X18fa
| |
| </source>
| |
| * working/
| |
| | |
| In working/, start casa
| |
| <pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
| |
| casa --pipeline
| |
| </pre>
| |
| | |
| Find script/member.[MOUS UID].hifa_[recipe].casa_piperestorescript.py in the materials from the archive. It should look like this
| |
| <source lang="python">
| |
| __rethrow_casa_exceptions = True
| |
| h_init()
| |
| try:
| |
| hifa_restoredata (vis=['uid___A002_Xe3da01_X18fa'], session=['session_1'], ocorr_mode='ca')
| |
| finally:
| |
| h_save()
| |
| </source>
| |
| | |
| If the script contains additional commands e.g. "fixsyscaltimes" or "fixplanets", note that the call to import these tasks have changed from 'from recipes.almahelpers import fixsyscaltimes' and 'from tasks import fixplanets' to 'from casarecipes.almahelpers import fixsyscaltimes' and 'from casatasks import fixplanets', respectively, for CASA versions 6.1 and above.
| |
| You can run that script in working/:
| |
| <source lang="python">
| |
| execfile("member.uid___A001_X1465_X2182.hifa_calimage.casa_piperestorescript.py")
| |
| </source>
| |

| The relevant tasks for imaging pipeline reprocessing described in this CASA guide are hifa_importdata, hif_mstransform, hifa_flagtargets, hifa_imageprecheck, hif_checkproducts, hif_checkproductsize, hif_uvcontfit, hif_uvcontsub, hif_makeimlist, hif_makeimages.
| |
| | |
| '''Note 1''': One of important features of ALMA pipeline is to check the final imaging product size and make necessary adjustments to the channel binning, cell size, image size and possibly the number of fields to be imaged. These are modified to avoid creating large images and cubes that take up significant computing resources and are not necessary for user's science goals. hif_checkproductsize task does this job and we insert this task in all imaging example script in below. We recommend that users copy hif_checkproductsize task from the provided casa_pipescript.py without changing parameters: maxcubelimit, maxproductsize and maxcubesize. However users can comment it out if they don't want this size mitigation or they can explicitly specify the nbins, hm_imsize and hm_cell parameters in hif_makeimlist task.
| |
| | |
| '''Note 2''': hifa_imageprecheck calculates the synthesized beam and estimates the sensitivity for the aggregate bandwidth and representative bandwidth, for three values of the robust parameter. Then the best robust value is chosen based on heuristics, for subsequent imaging. Therefore if a user wants to use a different robust value from the user's own choice, hifa_imageprecheck should not be run.
| |
| | |
| '''Note 3''': hifa_importdata will display QA notifications warning that the Flux catalog service is not being used and that the measurement set may already be processed (see screenshot). This is expected - in operations the best flux catalog values must be used, but since you are not going to use the flux densities for anything here, and the amplitude scale of the data has already been calibrated and all calibrations were applied, you can ignore these messages. You should however delete the flux.csv that gets created, if you are going to run any pipeline calibration steps later, and instead use the flux.csv that was delivered with your dataset.

| == Common Re-imaging Examples==
| |
| | |
| Next, chose the example below that best fits your use case. Due to the need to preserve the indentation of the python commands, the examples will work best if you copy the entire block of python commands (orange-shaded regions) for a particular example into its own python script, check that the indentation is preserved, '''edit the USER SET INPUTS section''', and then execute the file.

| === Restore Pipeline Continuum Subtraction and Manually Make Image Products ===
| |
| | |
| ==== Re-determine and Apply Pipeline Continuum Subtraction using Pipeline Tasks ====
| |
| | |
| The following script splits off the calibrated science target data for all spws and fields for each execution, applies any flagging commands found in the <uid_name>_flagtargetstemplate.txt file(s) (one for each execution), uses the existing cont.dat file to fit and subtract the continuum emission, leaving the result in the CORRECTED column. Before running this script, you can manually modify both the <uid_name>_flagtargetstemplate.txt file(s) and cont.dat file to add flag commands or change the cont.dat frequency ranges. Once you're happy with the script, you can run it in a CASA session (that was started with the --pipeline option) using execfile(script_name).

| | |
| ==== Make Images Manually ====
| |
| | |
| At this point you will have created a *targets.ms for each execution of your SB. Each of these measurement sets contains the original calibrated continuum + line data in the DATA column and the calibrated continuum subtracted data in the the CORRECTED column. The new CASA task for imaging {{tclean}} (which is used by the ALMA Pipeline) allows the user to select which column to use for imaging. {{tclean}} also allows a list for the ''vis'' parameter so that it is not necessary to {{concat}} the data before imaging.
| |
| | |
| '''NOTE:''' If you think you might want to self-calibrate your data using either the continuum or line emission it is '''ESSENTIAL''' that you first split off the column that you want to operate on before imaging. Otherwise, the CORRECTED column containing the continuum subtracted data will be overwritten when {{applycal}} is run during the self-calibration process.
| |
| | |
| To manually clean your data at this stage, there are two options:
| |
| # Use modified versions of the relevant {{tclean}} commands from the "logs/<MOUS_name>.hifa_calimage.casa_commands.log". These are the exact commands originally run by the imaging pipeline to produce your imaging products.
| |
| #* They will contain within them the frequency ranges (from the cont.dat) used for making the various images.
| |
| #* There will be two {{tclean}} commands per image product, the first with an image name containing '''iter0''' only makes a dirty image, while the second with '''iter1''' makes a cleaned image.
| |
| #* For example to make the aggregate continuum image but with interactive clean masking, simply copy the corresponding '''iter1''' command (it will contain all of the spw numbers in its name), but set interactive=True, calcres=True, calcpsf=True, restart=False. Additionally set mask=''. If you are using the *.targets.ms file(s) you can keep datacolumn='DATA'.
| |
| #* Note if you are trying to save the model, i.e. for self-calibration, you must also set savemodel='modelcolumn' (or virtual). Also be aware that exiting from interactive clean using the Red X symbol in the interactive viewer, does not save the model in 4.7.0 {{tclean}}. To fill the model after stopping this way, rerun same clean command (being careful not to remove existing files) except set restart=True, calcpsf=False, calcres=False, niter=0, interactive=False. This re-run only takes a couple minutes with these settings.
| |
| #* If you have split off the data of interest for self-calibration (as recommended above), you will first need to image the datacolumn='DATA'. After applying a self-calibration table, you will want to image the datacolumn='CORRECTED'. This should happen by default in typical data reduction use cases since TCLEAN defaults to using the CORRECTED column (when it exists) for imaging, and automatically falls back to the DATA column (if it does not exist).
| |
| # Use examples on the casaguide page [[TCLEAN_and_ALMA]] to formulate your own special purpose commands.
| |
| | |
| === Make Pipeline Aggregate Continuum Image With All Channels ===
| |
| | |
| This example moves the cont.dat file to a backup name so it is not picked up by pipeline, in which case all unflagged channels are used to make an aggregate continuum image with no continuum subtraction and default pipeline cleaning. This may be beneficial for continuum only projects for which the hif_findcont stage of the weblog shows that more continuum bandwidth is possible than it identified (i.e. due to noise spikes etc).

| === Restore Pipeline Continuum Subtraction for Subset of SPWs and Fields and Use Channel Binning for Pipeline Imaging of Cubes ===
| |
| | |
| ==== Using Pipeline Tasks ====
| |
| | |
| This example uses the pipeline imaging tasks to remake the cubes for a subset of spws and fields with channel binning and a more naturally-weighted Briggs robust parameter.
