ALMA SIS14

Getting Oriented in CASA

We'll begin by getting you oriented in CASA.

• Your first task and script
• Orienting yourself with a new data set

Calibrating Data

Next we'll look at how we calibrate data.

• Basic phase and amplitude calibration
• Applying calibrations
• Flux calibration
• Bandpass calibration

Flagging Data

A large part of the human input to data reduction comes from identifying problematic data, which is usally removed from the data set in a process called "flagging."

• Basic flagging
• Basic data inspection

Imaging

• Demonstrating the effect of calibration - your first imaging example
• Basic continuum imaging
• Basic line imaging
• UV continuum subtraction
