This is an advanced Jansky VLA data reduction tutorial that calibrates and images a 3-bit dataset.
#REDIRECT [[EVLA 3-bit Tutorial G192-CASA4.4]]
 
<b>This CASA Guide is for CASA version 4.1.0.</b>
 
== Overview ==
 
This article describes the calibration and imaging of the protostar G192.16-3.84.  The data were taken in Ka-band using the VLA's 3-bit samplers and widely-spaced basebands centered at 29 and 36.5 GHz.  Each baseband has over 4 GHz of bandwidth comprised of 32 128-MHz spectral windows.  In this tutorial, we will examine, flag, and calibrate the data, including the the corrections for the requantizer gains (which are necessary for 3-bit data calibration and harmless on 8-bit data).  We will then image and analyze the calibrated data, using wideband imaging techniques.
 
This is a more advanced tutorial, so if you are a relative novice (and <em>particularly</em> for VLA continuum calibration and imaging), it is <em>strongly</em> recommended that you start with the [[EVLA Continuum Tutorial 3C391]] (at least read it through) before proceeding with this tutorial.
 
In addition, on the [http://casaguides.nrao.edu MainPage] of the CASA Guides you can find these helpful pages:
* [[What is CASA?]]
* [[Getting Started in CASA]]
* [[CASA Reference Manuals]]
* [[Hints, Tips, & Tricks]]
* [[AIPS-to-CASA Cheat Sheet]]
 
In this tutorial we will be invoking the tasks as function calls.  You can cut and paste these to your casapy session.  We also recommend that you copy all the commands you use, with any relevant commentary, to a text file.  This is ''very'' good practice when tackling large datasets.  If you wish, you can use the [http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=Extracting_scripts_from_these_tutorials Script Extractor] to create a file with the tutorial commands, which can subsequently be edited and annotated as desired.
 
Occasionally we will be setting Python variables (e.g., as lists for flags) outside the function call so make sure you set those before running the task command.  Note that when you call a CASA task as a function, any task parameters that are not set in the function call will be used with their default values.  This means they will ''not'' use values you set in any previous calls or outside the call.  See [[Getting_Started_in_CASA#Task_Execution]] for more on calling tasks and setting parameters in the scripting interface.
 
NOTE: If you find that the figures on the right margin of the browser window overlap the text too much and make reading difficult, you can adjust the width of the browser window.
 
== Obtaining the Data ==
 
The data for this tutorial were taken with the VLA as part of its commissioning phase.  They comprise the scheduling block (SB) <tt>TVER0004.sb14459364.eb14492359.56295.26287841435</tt>, which was run on 2013-01-03 from 6:18 to 7:47 UT (its raw size is 57.04 GB). 
 
The data can be downloaded directly from [http://casa.nrao.edu/Data/EVLA/G192/G192_6s.ms.tar.gz http://casa.nrao.edu/Data/EVLA/G192/G192_6s.ms.tar.gz] (dataset size: 18 GB)
 
Your first step will be to unzip and untar the file in a terminal (before you start CASA):
 
<source lang="bash">
tar -xzvf G192_6s.ms.tar.gz
</source>
 
If you are brave enough, you can also get the data directly from the VLA archive. Go to the [https://archive.nrao.edu/archive/advquery.jsp NRAO Science Data Archive], and search for "TVER0004.sb14459364" in the Archive File ID field.  Then select the dataset and choose a time-averaging value of 6 seconds. (Although the data were taken in A-configuration, we will not be imaging outside of the center of the field, so we aren't too worried about time-average smearing and will take advantage of averaging to reduce the dataset size.)  Also select the "Create tar file" option.
 
In addition, only the fields used for analysis and observation are included in the downloadable file.  This can be accomplished using the {{split}} task in CASA:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
split('TVER0004.sb14459364.eb14492359.56295.26287841435.ms', outputvis='G192_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='all', field='3,6,7,10', keepflags=False, spw='2~65')
</source>
 
(If you're downloading from the archive and feeling ambitious, you could also select only the scans with fields 3, 6, 7, and 10 in the "Select scans for MS or AIPS FITS" box.)  This will create a file equivalent to what is used at the start of this tutorial.
 
== Starting CASA ==
 
To start CASA, type:
 
<source lang="bash">
casapy
</source>
 
This will run a script to initialize CASA, setting paths appropriately. It will also start writing to a file called ipython-<unique-stamp>.log, which will contain a record of all the text you enter at the CASA prompt, as well as casapy-<unique-stamp>.log, which will contain all the messages that are printed to the CASA logger window.
 
A logger window will also appear.  Note that you can rescale this window or change the font size as desired (the latter is under "View").
 
== Examining the MS ==
 
We use {{listobs}} to summarize our MS:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
listobs('G192_6s.ms', listfile='G192_listobs.txt')
</source>
 
This will write the output to a file called <tt>G192_listobs.txt</tt>, which we can print to the terminal using the <tt>cat</tt> command:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
cat G192_listobs.txt
</source>

This task displays a lot of information about the MS. We can see that the observation was performed with the EVLA, and the included integration time is 4557 seconds (1.3 hour).  The number of data records (10,061,248) is approximately equal to the number of baselines (N_antenna * [N_antenna - 1] / 2) X the number of integrations (observing time / time-average binning) X the number of spectral windows.  For this observation, this is roughly 325 baselines (26X25/2) X 760 integrations (4557s total/6s avg) X 64 spectral windows = 15,808,000.  Note that this is high by ~50%; this is because the "total time" reported is simply (start time) - (end time) of the MS, which includes periods of flagged data and scans that were excluded from the final MS.  Extra exercise: examine the MS using {{browsetable}} to see what a data record looks like (equivalent to a row, as displayed by this task).
 
The most useful parts of the {{listobs}} output are the scan, field, and spectral window listings.  From the spectral window information, we can see that there are a total of 64 (0 through 63) spectral windows in this dataset, each with 128 channels, and that they are all at Ka-band (which spans 26.5 - 40.0 GHz). 
 
The field listing shows four sources:
 
* 3C147 (Field ID 0), the flux calibration source;
* J0603+174 (1), used for calibrating the complex gains;
* G192.16-3.84 (2), the science target; and
* 3C84 (3), used for calibrating the spectral bandpass.
 
Note the rapid switching between G192 and J0603: this will help us accurately perform and transfer the gain phase for these high-frequency data.  There was also a pointing calibration source in the original MS, but since this calibration was already applied during observing, we did not retain this source (in the interests of limiting dataset size).
 
== Flagging the MS ==
 
[[Image:PlotG192_flagcmd_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|online flags plotted from flagcmd]]
 
The online flags, which are a record of known bad data produced by the VLA online system, were applied by the archive when it generated the MS.  However, it's good to have a sense of what was deleted in this process.  A record of the flags is stored in a table in the MS called <tt>FLAG_CMD</tt>.  (In fact, the information for this table is actually a subdirectory within the MS; you can see this by listing the contents of <tt>G192_6s.ms</tt>.)
 
You can examine the commands stored in the <tt>FLAG_CMD</tt> table using {{flagcmd}}:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flagcmd(vis='G192_6s.ms', inpmode='table', action='list', \
        useapplied=True)
</source>
* <tt>useapplied=True</tt>: tells the task to list flags that have already been applied to the MS (which includes all online flags; otherwise, they would be ignored)
 
The flag information will be printed to the logger (all 2870 rows).  The majority of the flags are "ANTENNA_NOT_ON_SOURCE" -- most of these were generated as a result of the fast switching between G192 and the phase calibrator.
 
You can also plot the commands stored in the <tt>FLAG_CMD</tt> table:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
myrows = range(2868)
flagcmd(vis='G192_6s.ms', inpmode='table', action='plot', \
        useapplied=True, tablerows=myrows)
</source>
 
Note that we are only plotting the first 2868 rows.  This is because the last two are from flagging zeros in the data (caused by correlator errors) and data which have been flagged due to [http://evlaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=Observational_Status_Summary#Shadowing_and_Cross-Talk antenna shadowing].  (Since the data were taken in the most widely spaced A-configuration, little if any data were likely affected by shadowing.)  Note that you can omit the <tt>tablerows</tt> selection and plot those too -- you will just get lines at the bottom marked as "All" antennas for these flags.
 
By default, this will bring up a <tt>matplotlib</tt> plotter.  You can have it plot to a PNG file instead:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flagcmd(vis='G192_6s.ms', inpmode='table', action='plot', tablerows=myrows,
        useapplied=True, plotfile='PlotG192_flagcmd_4.1.png')
</source>
 
The flags as plotted in the figure to the above right look normal.  They are color-coded by REASON, and you see the ANTENNA_NOT_ON_SOURCE flags between scans, some FOCUS_ERROR flags here and there, and the occasional SUBREFLECTOR_ERROR flag also between scans (most likely after band changes when the subreflector rotates to pick up the new feed on the ring, some are slower than others).  You want to be wary of long blocks of unexpected flags, which might be false alarms and cause you to flag too much data.  In that case, look at the data itself in {{plotms}} (see below for examples) to decide whether or not to apply all flags.  (Note: for the dataset in this tutorial, we have already deleted all the flagged data to reduce the file size, so you won't be able to inspect the flagged data within the MS.  To do so, you will need to download the original dataset from the  [https://archive.nrao.edu/archive/advquery.jsp NRAO Science Data Archive].)
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotants.png|200px|thumb|right|plotants plotter]]
To plot up the antenna positions in the array:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotants('G192_6s.ms')
</source>
 
NOTE: if after this point (or any other) you get "table locks", which may occur erroneously and are sometimes triggered by plotting tasks, use {{clearstat}} to clear them:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
clearstat
</source>
 
Now we examine the MS looking for bad data to flag.  We will use {{plotms}} to bring up an interactive GUI that will display 2-D Y vs. X style line plots.  <b>NOTE: We do not recommend using the editing/flagging features of {{plotms}}.</b>  It is very easy to mess up your data this way.  Also, to improve speed we will be restricting the scope of plotting, so most box/flag operations would not get rid of all the bad data -- although they would ''appear'' to delete it, which is misleading. 
 
We will instead use {{plotms}} to identify bad data and then use {{flagcmd}} to flag it.  This will also allow full scripting of the flagging, which is ultimately the best way to keep track of what's been deleted.  Given the large dataset sizes now being generated, reproducibility is extremely important.  Imagine spending a day flagging your data, then a disk error corrupts the MS: it's imperative that you have an automated way to regenerate your work!  This is also why we also encourage you to keep a running file with all the commands you use to process a dataset.
 
NOTE: If you need an introduction to {{plotms}}, see:
* [[Data flagging with plotms]]
* [[Averaging data in plotms]]
* [[What's the difference between Antenna1 and Antenna2? Axis definitions in plotms]]
 
WARNING: The '''Flag''' [[Image:FlagThoseData.png]] button on the plotms GUI is close to other buttons you will be using, in particular the one that deletes boxes you have drawn [[Image:DeleteBox.png]].  Be careful you don't hit the '''Flag''' button by mistake!
 
To get an idea of the data layout, plot a single baseline (ea02&ea05), channel (31, for all spectral windows), and polarization (RR) versus time.  Note that limiting the selected data with appropriate filters is extremely helpful when plotting large datasets:
[[Image:screenshotPlotG192_plotms_ant02-05_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms of ea02&ea05 amp vs time]]
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='', spw='*:31~31', \
      antenna='ea02&ea05', xaxis='time', yaxis='amp', \
      correlation='rr', coloraxis='field')
</source>
 
Here, we can see the alternating phase calibration and science target scans, as well as the (brighter) bandpass calibrator at the end of the observation.  Feel free to play with ways to view -- for example, you can change the size of the plotted points, if they are too small to see easily, by setting "Unflagged Points Symbol" to "Custom" and increasing the number of pixels under "Style".
 
[[Image:screenshotPlotG192_plotms_baseline_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms baseline amplitudes for field 3]]
 
Look for bad antennas by picking the bandpass calibrator and plotting baselines.  We color the points by "antenna1" to see which antennas might be troublesome:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='3', spw='*:31~31', \
      antenna='', xaxis='baseline',\
      yaxis='amp', coloraxis='antenna1')
</source>
 
You should be able to see that three of the antennas have lower amplitudes than the rest.  Boxing with the '''Mark Regions''' [[File:MarkRegionsButton.png]] tool and using the '''Locate''' [[File:casaplotms-locate-tool.png]] tool will show in the logger that these are antennas ea01, ea10 and ea19; indeed, checking the [https://archive.nrao.edu/archive/ArchiveRouter?OBS_LOGS=EVLA,TVER0004,56295.000000,56296.000000 Operator Log] for this observation shows that these antennas have collimation offsets and that the data have been corrupted.  We will delete these antennas.
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotms_field3_ea05_ea13.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms field 3 ea05 and ea13 amp vs frequency]]
 
Now look at the raw spectral bandpasses of baselines to ea05.  It is in the inner core of the array and a prospective reference antenna.  Since we plan to flag them, we will exclude antennas ea01, ea10, and ea19 using negation (represented by "!") in the selection, and iterate by antenna:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='3', \
      antenna='ea05;!ea01;!ea10;!ea19', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp',
      coloraxis='corr', iteraxis='antenna')
</source>
 
The plot for ea05 and ea13 shows that ea13's RCP is weak, as noted in the log file as well.  We will flag this antenna, since current restrictions do not allow for single-polarization data to be imaged if it's part of a full-polarization dataset. 
 
Also, note that spectral windows 16 through 31 for antenna ea18 look very suspicious.  We need to keep an eye on these data.
 
For antenna ea24, there appear to be some issues with spectral windows 47 and 48, and the RCP of spw 40 also looks problematic, so we'll flag this as well.
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotms_field3_ea05_ea18.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms field 3 ea05 and ea18 phase vs frequency]]
 
Now plot the phases, iterating through baselines to ea05:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='3', \
      antenna='ea05;!ea01;!ea10;!ea13;!ea19', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='phase', \
      coloraxis='spw', iteraxis='antenna')
</source>
 
You see the slopes due to residual delays. Mostly a turn or less over a 128-MHz subband, but there are some outliers.  Step through to ea18.  You see that there are jumps between spectral windows for spw 16-31 (see plot on the right).  This reinforces our suspicion that something is wrong with these data and we will flag them as well. 
 
To carry out the flagging, we again use {{flagcmd}} in the mode where it takes a list of command strings:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flaglist = ['antenna="ea01,ea10,ea19,ea13"',
            'antenna="ea24" spw="40,47~48"',
            'antenna="ea18" spw="16~31"']
flagcmd(vis='G192_6s.ms', inpmode='list', inpfile=flaglist, \
        action='apply', flagbackup=True)
</source>
These commands will be carried out as well as being added to the FLAG_CMD table (marked as applied).  Before applying the flags, a backup version will be stored as <tt>flagcmd_1</tt>, in case you would like to restore the flagged data to the MS (this can be done using {{flagmanager}}).
 
Plot the data again, now that is has been flagged:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='3', antenna='ea05', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp')
</source>
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotms_ea02fld3.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms field 3 ea05 amp vs frequency]]
 
Now let's look at our phase calibrator -- it is weaker, and we can see some RFI:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_6s.ms', field='1', antenna='ea05', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp', scan='10,20,30,40,50,60')
</source>
Note that we've chosen a subset of scans to limit the amount of data being plotted.  This will give a sense of whether there was RFI (or other issues) present in the observation, but will obviously not display everything.  Later on, when we plot the calibrated data, we will need to again inspect for possible bad data (and will iterate and recalibrate).
 
Use the Zoom button [[File:ZoomButton.png]], Mark Regions [[File:MarkRegionsButton.png]] and Locate [[File:Casaplotms-locate-tool.png]] to identify the frequency/channels of the RFI. In particular, we note the following:
* 27.228 GHz (spw 33 ch 124)
* 27.707 GHz (spw 37 ch 91)
* 27.81-27.811 GHz (spw 38 ch 66-67)
* 27.819-27.821 GHz (spw 38 ch 75-77)
* 28.894 GHz (spw 46 ch 126)
* 28.976 GHz (spw 48 ch 0)
* 29.684-20.685 GHz (spw 53 ch 68-69)
* 30.976 GHz (spw 63 ch 80) very strong
* 35.782 GHz (spw 10 ch 26)
* 36.523 GHz (spw 15 ch 127)
* 37.946 GHz (spw 27 ch 62)
* 37.948 GHz (spw 27 ch 64)
 
Flag these channels:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flaglist = ['spw="33:124,37:91,38:66~67;75~77,46:126,48:0"', \
            'spw="53:68~69,63:80,10:26,15:127,27:62,27:64"']
flagcmd(vis='G192_6s.ms', inpmode='list', inpfile=flaglist, \
        action='apply', flagbackup=True)
</source>
When this is finished, it's useful to have a look at the flagged data.  To reload the plotms window taking the new flags into account, check the "force reload" box and click on "Plot."  (As a shortcut, you can also hold down the "Shift" key while clicking on the "Plot" button to force reload a plot.)
 
Finally, split off the good data, without retaining the flagged data.  This will allow us to work on the data without having to start completely over (if we mess something up badly) as well as letting us do simpler data selections.
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
# Remove any existing split data, otherwise split will not happen
os.system('rm -rf G192_flagged_6s.ms')
split(vis='G192_6s.ms', outputvis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='data', keepflags=False)
</source>
* keepflags=False: again, to limit the size of the MS, we do not propagate flagged data to the split-off MS.
 
You now have a MS called <tt>G192_flagged_6s.ms</tt> in your working area.  This should be 16GB in size, which you can see while still at the CASA command prompt by typing:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
os.system('du -sh G192_flagged_6s.ms')
</source>
 
Note that the built-in <tt>system</tt> function allows one to execute UNIX shell commands within a CASA session.  (Some, like <tt>ls</tt>, don't need this extra wrapper, but most are not automatically understood.)
 
[[Image:PlotG192_plotms_datastream.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms antenna2 vs. time "datastream" plot]]
At this point it is useful to plot a "datastream" view of the dataset to show what antennas are present at what time. You can do this using
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', xaxis='time', yaxis='antenna2', \
      plotrange=[-1,-1,0,26], coloraxis='field')
</source>
This shows the times where data is present on baselines TO a given Antenna2 (which means there is no line for ea01 which is antenna 0). You can pick up ea01 (and drop ea28) by setting <tt>yaxis='antenna1'</tt>. To the right we show this plot. You see that for the most part, the antennas are present for the entire observation.  One exception to this is antenna ea16, which comes in a little late on the first scan of G192.
 
== Calibration ==
 
Before proceeding with calibration, we will summarize the split flagged MS:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
listobs('G192_flagged_6s.ms', listfile='G192_flagged_listobs.txt')
</source>
 
As before, cat'ing the file shows that there are now 7,121,197 data records present, and 22 antennas remaining in the MS.
 
=== Setting the flux density scale ===
 
It is now time to begin calibration.  The general data reduction strategy is to derive a series of scaling factors or corrections from the calibrators, which, in addition with <i>a priori</i> calibration information, are collectively applied to the science data.  For <em>much</em> more discussion of the philosophy, strategy, and implementation of calibration of synthesis data within CASA, see [http://casa.nrao.edu/docs/UserMan/UserManch4.html#x195-1920004 Synthesis Calibration] in the CASA Cookbook and User Reference Manual .
 
Before calibrating, we insert a model for the flux calibration source 3C147 into the MS.  In order to do this, we first have to locate the model image on our system with {{setjy}}, which we will also use to set the flux density scale.  The {{setjy}} task has an option to list possible available model images:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
setjy(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', listmodels=True)
</source>
which sends output to your terminal (but not the logger). For example, on an NRAO workstation:
<pre>
No candidate modimages matching '*.im* *.mod*' found in .

</pre>
 
The relevant image for our purposes is <tt>3C147_A.im</tt>, in the directory <tt>/usr/lib64/casapy/release/4.1.0/data/nrao/VLA/CalModels/</tt>.  Your system may show a different location (for example <tt>/home/casa/data/nrao/VLA/CalModels/</tt>, or <tt>/Applications/CASA.app/Contents/data/nrao/VLA/CalModels</tt> on a Mac).  Since it knows about this image, we only have to give the image name and not the entire path. Otherwise, you will need to give it the entire path. 
 
In addition, we need to edit the name of the flux calibrator to be "3C147-J0542+49" rather than its current version, which has a lower-case "c" that will cause {{setjy}} to become confused.  We can do this with a few [http://casa.nrao.edu/docs/CasaRef/CasaRef.html CASA Toolkit] commands and some Python:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
tb.open('G192_flagged_6s.ms/SOURCE', nomodify=False)
srcNames = tb.getcol('NAME')
</source>
 
You can look at the resulting array by typing "srcNames" -- the first 64 entries are '3c147-J0542+49', which we want to modify:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
for element in range (0,64):
    srcNames[element] = '3C147'
 
</source>
 
Now, put the modified values back into the MS table:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
tb.putcol('NAME', srcNames)
tb.close()
</source>
 
There's one more place where we need to make this modification -- the "FIELD" table:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
tb.open('G192_flagged_6s.ms/FIELD', nomodify=False)
fldNames = tb.getcol('NAME')
fldNames[0] = '3C147'
tb.putcol('NAME', fldNames)
tb.close()
</source>
 
We can now run the {{setjy}} task using the appropriate model:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
setjy(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', scalebychan=True, \
      modimage='3C147_A.im')
</source>
 
[[Image:screenshotPlotG192_setjy_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms of model amp vs freq for 3C147]]
* <tt>scalebychan=True</tt>: will fill the model with per-channel values; otherwise, {{setjy}} would use a single value per spectral window.
* <tt>usescratch=False</tt>: put the model in the header instead of creating scratch columns in the MS.  This will take up considerably less disk space.
 
We can plot the model data using {{plotms}}:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', antenna='ea02&ea05', \
      xaxis='freq', yaxis='amp', ydatacolumn='model')
</source>
 
Inspecting the logger report shows that 3C147 is about 0.98 Jy at the lower end of the band to 0.67 Jy at the upper end.
 
=== Deriving <i>a priori</i> calibrations ===
 
Some calibration products are carried along throughout the calibration process and used as priors for subsequent calibration steps.  These include the antenna position corrections, gain-elevation curves, tropospheric opacity corrections, and requantizer gains.
 
==== Antenna position corrections ====
 
We use {{gencal}} to determine any antenna-position corrections that need to be applied to the data. This is based on a database of corrections with the time they were determined and when they were applied by the observing system, compared to the times in your observations.
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gencal('G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.antpos', \
      caltype='antpos', antenna='')
</source>
You should see in the logger:
<pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
No offsets found for this MS
*** Warning *** No offsets found. No caltable created.
gencal::::casa An error occurred running task gencal.
</pre>
Although it looks like the task has failed, reading the warning and error show that in fact, there simply aren't any antenna corrections to apply (despite the fact the fact that the Observer Log lists antennas as having recently moved).
 
==== Gain-elevation curves ====
 
In CASA 4.1, we have the option to use {{gencal}} to create calibration tables containing the gain curves and tropospheric opacity corrections for the antennas. Although you can still use the <tt>gaincurve=True</tt> and <tt>opacity</tt> options in the calibration tasks, we will make use of this new feature (note that the <tt>gaincurve=True</tt> will be phased out in future CASA releases):
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gencal('G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.gaincurve', \
      caltype='gc')
</source>
 
==== Tropospheric opacity corrections ====
 
[[Image:G192_plotWX.png|200px|thumb|right|plotweather output]]
 
The opacity of the observation can be computed from a seasonal model and/or weather station information.  We will use the {{plotweather}} task to display the weather information and to calculate the zenith opacities for each spectral window.  After the zenith opacities are derived, {{gencal}} will recompute for the correct elevation of the data automatically using <math>e^{(-\csc[el]\tau_z)}</math> to create the opacity-correction calibration table.
 
To start, we want to plot the opacity of the atmosphere at the time this observation was taken so it can be corrected for in subsequent calibrations.  {{plotweather}} plots the weather conditions at the time of observation and calculates the atmospheric opacities based on these data, in combination with a seasonal model that contains long-term statistics at the VLA site. Using <tt>seasonal_weight=0.5</tt> (the default value) gives both equal weights:
 
We will be running {{plotweather}} in a way that will assign the opacity list (one entry for each spectral window in ascending order) to the variable myTau:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
myTau = plotweather(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', doPlot=T)
</source>
 
The logger should display:
<pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
##########################################

It also creates a file <tt>G192_flagged_6s.ms.plotweather.png</tt> with the elevation of the sun, the wind speed and direction, the temperature, precipitable water vapor (PWV) as functions of time over the observation (view this file with your preferred image viewer like gthumb, xv or Preview), and assigns the myTau variable to the full list of opacities per spectral window.
 
We can now create a calibration table for the opacities with {{gencal}} using the <tt>calmode='opac'</tt> parameter.  We could input the opacities directly, but it's easier to use the myTau variable with a little Python:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
SPWs = []
for window in range(0,64):
    SPWs.append(str(window))
spwString = ','.join(SPWs)
gencal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.opacity',
      caltype='opac', spw=spwString, parameter=myTau)
</source>
 
==== Requantizer gain corrections ====
 
Finally, we will use {{gencal}} to create a calibration table containing corrections for the requantizer gains.  Although this is only necessary for 3-bit data, such as our G192 dataset, it can be done for 8-bit datasets without any ill effects.  For 3-bit data, this step is needed to account for the small gain changes (~5-10%) that result from resetting the quantizer gains as the correlator changes to a new 3-bit configuration.  (Here is [https://science.nrao.edu/facilities/vla/docs/manuals/obsguide/modes/set-up/3bit/#dp more information on observing with the 3-bit system].)
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gencal('G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.requantizer', \
      caltype='rq')
</source>
 
The caltables we have generated (<tt>calG192.gaincurve</tt>, <tt>calG192.opacity</tt>, and <tt>calG192.requantizer</tt>) will need to be pre-applied in subsequent calibration steps.
 
=== Calibrating delays and initial bandpass solutions ===
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_G0p1_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal G0 phase ant 0~15]]
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_G0p2_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal G0 phase ant 16~26]]
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_delays.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal K0 delay vs. antenna]]
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0a1_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bandpass amp ant ea06 spw 0-31]]
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0a2_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bandpass amp ant ea06 spw 32-63]]
 
First, we do a phase-only calibration solution on a narrow range of channels near the center of each spectral window on the bandpass calibrator 3C84 to flatten them with respect to time before solving for the bandpass. The range 60~68 should work. Pick a reference antenna near the center of the array -- ea05 is a reasonable choice (see above):
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G0', \
        field='3', spw='*:60~68', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                  'calG192.opacity'], \
        gaintype='G', refant='ea05', calmode='p', \
        solint='int', minsnr=3)
</source>
 
* <tt>refant='ea05'</tt> : use ea05 as the reference antenna
* <tt>solint='int'</tt> : do a per-integration solve (every 6 seconds, since we've time-averaged the data)
* <tt>minsnr=3</tt> : apply a minimum signal-to-noise cutoff.  Solutions with less than this value will be flagged
* <tt>gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', 'calG192.opacity']</tt> : pre-apply the gaincurve, opacity, and requantizer caltables
 
Plot the phase solutions (using full phase range, -180 to 180, instead of autorange):
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G0', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180])
</source>
 
Step through the antenna-based solutions.  They look good (and fairly flat over the scans).
 
NOTE: When you are done plotting and want to use the caltable in another task, use the Quit button on the GUI to dismiss the plotter and free up the lock on the caltable. You should see a message in your terminal window saying "Resetting plotcal" which means you are good to go!
 
If you want to make single-page multipanel plots (like those shown to the right), particularly for a hardcopy (where it only shows the first page), you can do:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G0', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        antenna='0~10,12~15', subplot=531, iteration='antenna', \
        plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180], fontsize=8.0, \
        markersize=3.0, figfile='plotG192_plotcal_G0p1.png')
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G0', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        antenna='16~26', subplot=531, iteration='antenna', \
        plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180], fontsize=8.0, \
        markersize=3.0, figfile='plotG192_plotcal_G0p2.png')
</source>
 
We can now solve for the residual antenna-based delays that we saw in phase vs. frequency. This uses the <tt>gaintype='K'</tt> option in gaincal. Note that this currently does not do a "global fringe-fitting" solution for delays, but instead does a baseline-based delay solution for all baselines to the reference antenna, treating these as antenna-based delays.  In most cases with high-enough S/N to get baseline-based delay solutions this will suffice.  We avoid the edge channels of each spectral window by selecting channels 5~122:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.K0', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                  'calG192.G0', 'calG192.opacity'], \
        field='3', spw='*:5~122', gaintype='K', \
        refant='ea05', solint='inf', minsnr=3)
</source>
 
Note that we have also pre-applied our initial phase table.  We can plot the delays, in nanoseconds, as a function of antenna index (you will get one for each subband and polarization):
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.K0', xaxis='antenna', yaxis='delay')
</source>
 
The delays range from around -5 to 4 nanoseconds.
 
Now we solve for the antenna bandpasses using the previous tables:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
bandpass(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.B0', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                    'calG192.G0', 'calG192.K0', 'calG192.opacity'], \
        field='3', refant='ea05', solnorm=False, \
        bandtype='B', solint='inf', gaincurve=False)
</source>
'''WARNING''': You must set <tt>solnorm=False</tt> here or later on you will find some offsets
between spw due to how amplitude scaling adjusts weights internally during solving.
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0p1_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bandpass phase ant ea06 spw 0-31]]
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0p2_4.0.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bandpass phase ant ea06 spw 32-63]]
 
You will see in the terminal some reports of solutions failing due to "Insufficient unflagged antennas" -- note that these are for the channels we flagged earlier.
 
This is the first amplitude-scaling calibration that we do, so it is important to have used the <tt>calG192.gaincurve</tt> caltable (or set <tt>gaincurve=True</tt>) as well as the <tt>calG192.opacity</tt> caltable (or set <tt>opacity</tt> appropriately).
 
Plot the resulting bandpasses in amplitude and phase:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.B0', xaxis='freq', yaxis='amp', \
        spw='0~31', iteration='antenna')
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.B0', xaxis='freq', yaxis='amp', \
        spw='32~63', iteration='antenna')
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.B0', xaxis='freq', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', spw='0~31', \
        plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180])
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.B0', xaxis='freq', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', spw='32~63', \
        plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180])
</source>
 
In the bandpass phase you no longer see the residual antenna delays (just residual spw phase offsets from the delay solution registration), but there are some band edge effects apparent.
 
=== Bootstrapping the bandpass calibrator spectrum ===
 
Unfortunately, our flux density calibrator was not bright enough at Ka-band to use as the bandpass calibration source.  Since there is no <i>a priori</i> spectral information for our chosen bandpass calibrator, 3C84, we need to bootstrap to find its spectral index, then recalibrate with this information in order to avoid folding the intrinsic spectral shape of 3C84 into our calibration.
 
First, we use the initial round of bandpass calibration to create gain solutions for the flux and bandpass calibrators:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G1', field='0,3', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                  'calG192.opacity', 'calG192.K0', \
                  'calG192.B0'], \
        gaintype='G', refant='ea05', calmode='ap', solint='30s', minsnr=3)
</source>
 
Have a look at the phase and amplitude solutions, stepping through antenna.  We look at the sources individually since they're fairly widely separated in time:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1', xaxis='time', yaxis='amp', \
        field='0', iteration='antenna')
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1', xaxis='time', yaxis='amp', \
        field='3', iteration='antenna')
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180], \
        field='0')
#
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180], \
        field='3')
</source>
 
The solutions all look reasonable and relatively constant with time. 
 
Now that we have gain solutions for the flux and bandpass calibrators, we can use {{fluxscale}} to scale the gain amplitudes of the bandpass calibrator:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flux1 = fluxscale(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G1', \
                  fluxtable='calG192.F1', reference='0', \
                  transfer='3', listfile='3C84.fluxinfo', fitorder=1)
</source>
* <tt>flux1 = ...</tt>: by providing a variable <tt>flux1</tt>, we allow {{fluxscale}} to use this for the output dictionary it returns with lots of information about the flux scaling.
* <tt>fluxtable='calG192.F1'</tt>: this is the output scaled gain table.  Since we are only using this to find the spectral index of 3C84, we won't be using this table.
* <tt>listfile='3C84.fluxinfo'</tt>: an output file that contains the derived flux values and fit information.
* <tt>fitorder=1</tt>: only find a spectral index, ignoring curvature in the spectrum.
 
The last line in the file (and displayed in the logger) shows:
<pre style="background-color: #fffacd;">
# Fitted spectrum for 3c84-J0319+413 with fitorder=1: Flux density = 29.8756 +/- 0.0381046 (freq=32.4488 GHz) spidx=-0.598929 +/- 0.0105201
</pre>
 
[[Image:screenshotPlotG192_setjy_bp_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotms of model amp vs freq for 3C84]]
[[Image:plotG192_3C84_fluxspec_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|3C84 flux values returned by fluxscale]]
 
Using the information in the returned <tt>flux</tt> dictionary, we can plot the derived spectrum:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
freq = flux1['freq'] / 1e9
srcFlux = flux1['3']['fluxd']
srcErr = flux1['3']['fluxdErr']
pl.clf()
pl.plot(freq, srcFlux, 'bo')
</source>
 
Note the bump around 37 GHz -- what is this?  We will not be able to account for it with the simple spectral index model, but still, ours is a good first approximation.
 
We can use the model from {{fluxscale}} to fill the MODEL column with 3C84's spectral information using {{}}:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
setjy(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='3', scalebychan=True, \
      fluxdensity=[29.8756, 0, 0, 0], spix=-0.598929, \
      reffreq='32.4488GHz')
</source>
 
Checking with plotms that the data have been appropriately filled:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='3', antenna='ea05&ea02', \
      xaxis='freq', yaxis='amp', ydatacolumn='model')
</source>
 
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0a1.b_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bootstrapped bandpass amp ant ea06 spw 0-31]]
[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0a2.b_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bootstrapped bandpass amp ant ea06 spw 32-63]]

[[Image:plotG192_plotcal_B0p2.b_4.1.png|200px|thumb|right|plotcal B0 bootstrapped bandpass phase ant ea06 spw 32-63]]
 
Finally, we redo the previous calibration using this new model information:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G0.b', \
        field='3', spw='*:60~68', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', \
                  'calG192.requantizer', 'calG192.opacity'], \
        gaintype='G', refant='ea05', calmode='p', \
        solint='int', minsnr=3)
#
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.K0.b', \
        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                  'calG192.G0.b', 'calG192.opacity'], \
        field='3', spw='*:5~122', gaintype='K', \
        refant='ea05', solint='inf', minsnr=3)
#

        gaintable=['calG192.gaincurve', 'calG192.requantizer', \
                    'calG192.G0.b', 'calG192.K0.b', \
                    'calG192.opacity'], \
        field='3', refant='ea05', solnorm=False, \
        bandtype='B', solint='inf')
</source>
 
It's a good idea to inspect these solutions as well:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA

        spw='0~31', iteration='antenna')

They look virtually unchanged from the previous solutions, with the exception that the amplitude scaling is corrected for the spectrum of 3C84.  Now that we have the final version of our bandpass calibration, we can proceed to the full calibration of the dataset.
 
=== Final phase and amplitude calibration ===

Now we will compute calibrators' gain phases using the full bandwidth.  We will do the calibrators one at a time and append subsequent solutions, since we will use different solution intervals.  For 3C147 and 3C84, we obtain one solution per integration (these are bright enough); for J0603+174, we will use 12 s solution intervals:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G1.int', \
        gaintable=['calG192.requantizer','calG192.gaincurve', \
                  'calG192.opacity', \
                  'calG192.K0.b','calG192.B0.b'], \
        field='0', refant='ea05', solnorm=F, \
        solint='int', gaintype='G', calmode='p')
#
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G1.int', \
        gaintable=['calG192.requantizer','calG192.gaincurve', \
                  'calG192.opacity', \
                  'calG192.K0.b','calG192.B0.b'], \
        field='1', refant='ea05', solnorm=F, \
        solint='12s', gaintype='G', calmode='p', \

                  'calG192.opacity', \
                  'calG192.K0.b','calG192.B0.b'], \
        field='3', refant='ea05', solnorm=F, \
        solint='int', gaintype='G', calmode='p', \
        append=True)
</source>
These will get applied when solving for amplitudes, and when calibrating the calibrators themselves.
 
The phases track nicely with time:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1.int', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180])
</source>
 
To apply phase calibration to the target, we make a second table for the gain calibrator (J0603+174) with one solution per scan:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
gaincal(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G1.inf', \
        gaintable=['calG192.requantizer', 'calG192.gaincurve', \
                  'calG192.opacity', \
                  'calG192.K0.b', 'calG192.B0.b'], \
        field='1', refant='ea05', solnorm=F, \
        solint='inf', gaintype='G', calmode='p')
</source>
 
These scan phases will get interpolated by {{applycal}} onto our target. These look good as well:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G1.inf', xaxis='time', yaxis='phase', \
        iteration='antenna', plotrange=[-1,-1,-180,180])
</source>
 
Now solve for amplitudes on a per scan interval, after applying the per-integration phases. Do these separately using <tt>gainfield</tt> so phases don't get transferred  across fields.  Note that {{gaincal}} uses linear interpolation of the previously determined phases by default, so set this to "nearest" if you want to override.
<source lang="python">

Have a look at the amplitudes:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotcal(caltable='calG192.G2', xaxis='time', yaxis='amp', \
        iteration='antenna')
</source>
 
This is the table we will apply to the data.
 
Now, we need to use {{fluxscale}} to transfer the amplitude gains from 3C147:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flux2 = fluxscale(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', caltable='calG192.G2', \
                  fluxtable='calG192.F2', reference='0')
</source>
where we have now captured the returned dictionary in the Python variable <tt>flux2</tt>.
 
The logger output gives:

</pre>
You may see slightly different numbers on your machine.  Note that "N" here is the number of antennas x the number of polarizations used for the calculations; in this case, there are 22 unflagged antennas and 2 polarizations.
 
Also, note that the flux-scaled amplitudes for 3C84 are all almost exactly 1 Jy.  This is not because the actual flux of 3C84 is 1 Jy, of course.  Rather, remember that the spectrum and flux information is now included in the bandpass table.  When we apply the calibration, in the next section, you will see that 3C84's flux does indeed come out as expected.
 
== Applying the Calibration and Final Editing ==
 
Next we apply all our accumulated calibration tables to the flagged MS.  We apply these to the calibration fields individually, using the appropriate gainfields and interpolation for each:
* For 3C147 (field 0) we did per-integration phase solutions and a single scan amplitude, so use "linear" and "nearest" interpolation, respectively;
* for the nearby gain calibrator (field 1) we did 12-s phase and per-scan amplitude solutions, for which we will use "linear" and "nearest" interpolation, respectively;
* for G192 (field 2), we will calibrate with field 1, using the per-scan solutions and "linear" interpolation; and finally,
* for the bandpass calibrator 3C84 (field 3), we did per-integration phase solutions and a single scan amplitude, so use "linear" and "nearest" interpolation respectively.

Because we used <tt>usesratch=False</tt> in {{setjy}}, the <tt>CORRECTED_DATA</tt> scratch column will be created the first time you run {{applycal}}. This will take a few minutes to write, increasing the size of the MS to 30 GB, and will store the calibrated data. 
 
We can examine the corrected data for 3C147, avoiding spectral wind edges, and binning the data in time and frequency:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='baseline')
</source>
 
See figure above right.  There is some suspicious data in the frequency range 38.15-38.26 GHz (spw 29).  We can plot around this frequency range with respect to time, to see if it's isolated RFI or something we should flag from the whole dataset:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', \
      xaxis='time', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='29:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='16', \
      avgtime='', coloraxis='baseline')
</source>
 
Indeed, something looks wrong for the time interval 6:35:00-6:36:40 for this spectral window.  Flag these data:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flagdata(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', \
        spw='29', timerange='6:35:00~6:36:40')
</source>
 
It's also instructive to plot the corrected amplitude as a function of baseline:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', \
      xaxis='baseline', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='antenna1')
</source>
Looks good now!
 
Next, we examine the corrected data for the gain calibrator, J0603+174, again avoiding spectral window edges.  This time, we will bin the data even more in frequency, since it's a fainter source:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='1', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='32', \
      avgtime='6000s', coloraxis='baseline')
</source>
 
This generally looks quite good.  Plot with respect to baseline as well:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='1', \
      xaxis='baseline', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='32', \
      avgtime='6000s', coloraxis='antenna1')
</source>
A few antennas look a little noisier, but nothing bad enough to flag for now.
 
Finally, we examine the corrected data for 3C84:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='3', \
      xaxis='frequency', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='baseline')
</source>
In general, it looks good, though there is one rather suspicious baseline dropping below the rest of the data.  Box a few data points and use the "Locate" button to find that this is ea03&ea07.  Plotting the same baseline for 3C147, we see that it doesn't look the best there either, so we will flag this baseline:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
flagdata(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', antenna='ea03&ea07')
</source>
 
Now, let's plot amplitude vs. baseline:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='3', \
      xaxis='baseline', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='antenna1')
</source>
Looks good!
 
Finally, let's plot amplitude vs. phase:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='3', \
      xaxis='phase', yaxis='amp', \
      xdatacolumn='corrected', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='baseline')
</source>
There is less than 2 degrees of phase scatter, and a plot vs. frequency shows that this is mostly in the highest frequencies.  We will keep all these data.
 
== Recalibration ==

The recalibration will take a little while -- it was over 1.5 hours on our system -- so this is a good time to work on a different project or grab some lunch!

As always, it's a good idea to check the corrected data with {{plotms}}.  Plots of corrected amplitude vs. baseline:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='0', \
      xaxis='baseline', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='8', \
      avgtime='1000s', coloraxis='antenna1')
#
plotms(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', field='1', \
      xaxis='baseline', yaxis='amp', \
      ydatacolumn='corrected', spw='*:5~122', \
      averagedata=True, avgchannel='32', \

And, finally, corrected amplitude vs. corrected phase:
<source lang="python">

      xaxis='phase', yaxis='amp', \
      xdatacolumn='corrected', \

Everything looks good, and the recalibration made only minor adjustments since there wasn't very much additional flagged data. 
 
Now split off the data for the calibrators and target field, so we can restore easily in case any issues corrupt the MSs.  Also, first remove any existing split data, otherwise split will not work:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
os.system('rm -rf 3C147_split_6s.ms')
split(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', outputvis='3C147_split_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='corrected', field='0')
#
os.system('rm -rf J0603_split_6s.ms')
split(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', outputvis='J0603_split_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='corrected', field='1')
#
os.system('rm -rf G192_split_6s.ms')
split(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', outputvis='G192_split_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='corrected', field='2')
#
os.system('rm -rf 3C84_split_6s.ms')
split(vis='G192_flagged_6s.ms', outputvis='3C84_split_6s.ms', \
      datacolumn='corrected', field='3')
</source>
 
We can now move on to imaging.
 
== Imaging ==
 
The G192 data were taken in the VLA's highest-resolution A-configuration at Ka-band.  To determine the best parameters for imaging, it helps to start with the relevant information in the [http://evlaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=Observational_Status_Summary_-_Current Observational Status Summary]:
 
* Synthesized beam is 0.059" at 33 GHz with a primary beam field of view of 1.4 arcmin (82")
 
Our data spans 27.0-38.4 GHz: this is a relatively large fractional bandwidth, resulting in substantial variation of the field of view over the entire frequency range.  The FOV = 45 arcmin / Frequency (GHz), giving 1.7 arcmin at 27 GHz and 1.2 arcmin at 38.4 GHz.  Likewise, the synthesized beam ranges from 0.072" at 27 GHz to 0.051" at 38.4 GHz.  We want to subsample the synthesized beam by a factor of 3-4, so will use a cellsize of 0.015".  To cover the full FOV, we would want a minimum image size of 6800 pixels.  However, there isn't much outside the center of the field for G192 -- this is what gave us leeway to average to 6 seconds -- so, to save time, will will only image a 1280x1280 pixel field (19.2"x19.2").
 
We will also use the Briggs robust (with <tt>robust=0.5</tt>) weighting, which is a compromise between uniform and natural weighting, and will give reasonable resolution but will allow us to still see larger scale structure.
 
Due to the numerology of [http://www.fftw.org/ FFTW's] (which {{clean}} uses under the hood for FFTs) optimal sizes, <tt>imsize</tt> should be an even number with prime factors chosen from 2, 3, 5, and 7.  Since 1280 = (2^8)*5, it will give us optimal clean performance.
 
For more information on using {{clean}}, in particular on using the interactive GUI, see [[EVLA_Continuum_Tutorial_3C391#Imaging]].
 
NOTE: If you are pressed for time, then you might want to jump ahead to
[http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=EVLA_3-bit_Tutorial_G192#Cleaning_both_basebands_using_two_MFS_Taylor_terms cleaning both basebands], and while it is cleaning you can read the other Imaging descriptions.
 
=== Cleaning a single spectral window ===
 
Let us start by interactively cleaning one spectral window in the lower-frequency baseband (spw 48).  (For Ka-band, the higher-numbered spectral-window baseband is actually the lower-frequency baseband.)  NOTE: this first time will take a few minutes at start to create scratch columns in the MS in case we want to do self-calibration later.
 
'''Note that interrupting {{clean}} by Ctrl+C may corrupt your visibilities -- you may be better off choosing to let {{clean}} finish.  We are working on a way to prevent this from happening, but for the moment it's best to avoid Ctrl+C.'''
 
[[Image:viewG192_spw48_1280.png|200px|thumb|right|viewer showing clean spw48 1280x1280 restored image]]

os.system ('rm -rf imgG192_6s_spw48*')
clean(vis='G192_split_6s.ms', spw='48:5~122', \
      imagename='imgG192_6s_spw48', \

</source>
* There's one point-like source near the center of the image -- box that and clean for 50 iterations.
* Stop cleaning when the residuals look like noise (this will probably happen after the first 50 iterations).
* To stop, click the red [[File:clean-stop.png]] button.
 
When clean is finished, we can look at the restored image:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
viewer('imgG192_6s_spw48.image')
</source>
 
The restored image is shown above.  I have chosen the "Hot Metal 1" color scale, which I prefer to "Rainbow" for assessing image quality.  However, you can easily change this, as well as the image scaling settings, using the "basic settings" menu (which is brought up by clicking on the wrench icon [[File:ViewerWrench.png]].
 
Check the rms of the residuals using the {{imstat}} task:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw48.residual')
print 'Residual standard deviation = '+str(mystat['sigma'][0])
</source>
In this particular case, it's 136 uJy; yours will likely be slightly different.
 
=== Cleaning the lower-frequency baseband ===
 
[[Image:viewG192_spw32-63_boxes.png|200px|thumb|right|clean boxes spw32-63]]
[[Image:viewG192_spw32-63.png|200px|thumb|right|clean spw32-63 restored image center]]
Here we will image the entire lower-frequency baseband (spw 32-63).  Follow the same iterative procedure as before, and get the best residuals you can without "cleaning the noise". 
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
# Removing any previous cleaning information
# This assumes you want to start this clean from scratch
# If you want to continue this from a previous clean run,
# the rm -rf system command should be be skipped
os.system ('rm -rf imgG192_6s_spw32-63*')
clean(vis='G192_split_6s.ms', spw='32~63:5~122', \
      imagename='imgG192_6s_spw32-63', \
      mode='mfs', nterms=1, niter=10000, \
      imsize=[1280], cell=['0.015arcsec'], \
      imagermode='csclean', cyclefactor=1.5, \
      weighting='briggs', robust=0.5, \
      interactive=True)
#
viewer('imgG192_6s_spw32-63.image')
mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw32-63.residual')
print 'Residual standard deviation = '+str(mystat['sigma'][0])
</source>
* Because of the increased bandwidth, it is easier to see two fainter point sources.
* Be careful cleaning sources that lie near or on sidelobe peaks.
* Clean the central emission region first (50 iterations) to reduce the sidelobe level before adding any more components.  The screenshot above shows the interactive clean window after 50 iterations with the three clean boxes we created.
 
For this run, the rms is 23 uJy.  To the right is a zoom-in on the center of the restored image.
 
Finally, we will fit the central point source to determine its flux.  First, create a box region around the source in the viewer, and save it as <tt>G192.crtf</tt> (View -> Regions -> File; see the screenshot below right).  Note that you can drag the Regions window out of the main Viewer window if it's taking up too much space. 
 
Use this region to fit the source flux:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
myfit = imfit('imgG192_6s_spw32-63.image', region='G192.crtf')
print 'Source flux = '+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['value'][0])+'+/-'+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['error'][0])
</source>
 
[[Image:viewG192_region.png|200px|thumb|right|saving CASA region for G192]]
 
The derived flux is 2.64 +/- 0.04 mJy.  Also, have a look at the logger output:
 
<pre>
Image component size (convolved with beam) ---
      --- major axis FWHM:    80.01 +/- 0.98 marcsec
      --- minor axis FWHM:    71.51 +/- 1.01 marcsec
      --- position angle: 63.2 +/- 2.2 deg
 
Clean beam size ---
      --- major axis FWHM: 0.06 arcsec
      --- minor axis FWHM: 0.06 arcsec
      --- position angle: 29.00 deg
Image component size (deconvolved from beam) ---
      --- major axis FWHM:    51.3 +/- 1.8 marcsec
      --- minor axis FWHM:    37.7 +/- 2.3 marcsec
      --- position angle: 78.5 +/- 6.3 deg
</pre>
 
Although it appears point-like, G192 is actually resolved!  The deconvolved size of around 45 milliarcseconds corresponds to a size of 90 AU (assuming a distance of approximately 2 kpc).  Indeed, this is thought to be the accretion disk around the protostar!  (See [http://www.sciencemag.org/content/292/5521/1513.full?ijkey=y1tFwtUnFnXoc&keytype=ref&siteid=ci this article] for the initial report, using 43 GHz data, of the accretion disk around G192.)
 
=== Cleaning the upper-frequency baseband ===
 
[[Image:viewG192_spw0-31.png|200px|thumb|right|clean spw32-63 restored image center]]
Now we will image the entire upper-frequency baseband (spw 0-31).  Follow the same iterative procedure as before, and get the best residuals you can without "cleaning the noise". 
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
# Removing any previous cleaning information
# This assumes you want to start this clean from scratch
# If you want to continue this from a previous clean run,
# the rm -rf system command should be be skipped
os.system ('rm -rf imgG192_6s_spw0-31*')
clean(vis='G192_split_6s.ms', spw='0~31:5~122', \
      imagename='imgG192_6s_spw0-31', \
      mode='mfs', nterms=1, niter=10000, \
      imsize=[1280], cell=['0.015arcsec'], \
      imagermode='csclean', cyclefactor=1.5, \
      weighting='briggs', robust=0.5, \
      interactive=True)
#
viewer('imgG192_6s_spw0-31.image')
mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw0-31.residual')
print 'Residual standard deviation = '+str(mystat['sigma'][0])
myfit = imfit('imgG192_6s_spw0-31.image', region='G192.crtf')
print 'Source flux = '+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['value'][0])+'+/-'+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['error'][0])
</source>
 
For this run, the rms is 31 uJy, and the source flux is 3.07 +/- 0.06 mJy.  Again, {{imfit}} finds that the source is extended.  To the right is a zoom-in on the center of the restored image.
 
=== Cleaning both basebands using two MFS Taylor terms ===
 
From the individual images of the upper- and lower-frequency basebands, we can see that the source spectrum of G192 is relatively flat, with a spectral index of approximately
 
<math>
\alpha = \log(S_1 / S_2) / \log(\nu_1 / \nu_2)
</math>
<math>
= \log(3.07 / 2.64) / \log(36.5 / 29.0)
</math>
<math>
= 0.66,
</math>
 
where the convention for the spectral index alpha is that
 
<math>
S \propto \nu^\alpha.
</math>
 
Within a single baseband, neglecting to account for the spectral index will make little difference -- however, when we combine the two basebands, it is best to account for the spectral variation across the total band.  For this, we will set <tt>nterms=2</tt> in {{clean}}.
 
This option creates two "Taylor term" images -- an average intensity image (with suffix <tt>.image.tt0</tt>), and a spectral slope image (with suffix <tt>.image.tt1</tt>), which is intensity x alpha (where alpha is the spectral index).  For convenience, there is also a spectral index image (with suffix <tt>.image.alpha</tt>).  These Taylor expansions are with respect to the "reference frequency" of the image (by default the center frequency of the selected spectral window, but can be specified using the <tt>reffreq</tt> parameter in {{clean}}).
 
We will clean the complete dataset using <tt>nterms=2</tt>  Note: if you're feeling a bit lazy, and trust your previous set of clean boxes, you can also set <tt>mask='imgG192_6s_spw0-31.mask'</tt> or <tt>mask='imgG192_6s_spw32-63.mask'</tt> to use these as a starting point rather than running an interactive clean session.  In this case, you should modify the <tt>threshold</tt> and <tt>niter</tt> parameters to avoid over-cleaning.

mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.residual.tt0')
print 'Residual standard deviation = '+str(mystat['sigma'][0])
myfit = imfit('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0', region='G192.crtf')
print 'Source flux = '+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['value'][0])+'+/-'+str(myfit['results']['component0']['flux']['error'][0])
</source>
 
For this run, the rms is 19.7 uJy, and the peak of the emission from G192 is 1.8 mJy, and the integrated source flux is 2.86 +/- 0.04 mJy (as before, the source is found to be extended).  You can use the {{viewer}} to load the average intensity image:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
viewer('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0')
</source>
 
[[Image:viewG192_spw0-63_mfs2loadalpha.png|200px|thumb|right|clean spw0-63 mfs nterms=2 load alpha with LEL]]
 
Since the spectral index image is very noisy in the lower-intensity regions, we will use {{immath}} task to filter the spectral index image explicitly, using a Lattice Expression Language (LEL) expression:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
immath(imagename=['imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha',
                  'imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0'],
      mode='evalexpr',
      expr='IM0[IM1>2.0E-4]',
      outfile='imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha.filtered')
</source>
 
This will use 0.2 mJy (10 x the rms) as the cutoff.  You can then view or manipulate the filtered alpha image as usual.
 
We can also use LEL to filter the alpha image on intensity on-the-fly when we load the raster via the Open Data panel, by specifying a LEL string in the LEL box instead of selecting the image from the directory listing.  The LEL string
<pre>
'imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha'['imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0'>2E-04]
</pre>
will replicate what we did above.  The middle figure to the right shows the Open Data panel with our LEL string in it.  Just click the Raster button to load this.
 
[[Image:viewG192_spw0-63_mfs2panelalpha.png|200px|thumb|right|clean spw0-63 mfs nterms=2 tt0 and alpha (filtered at 0.2 mJy in tt0)]]
[[Image:viewG192_spw0-63_mfs2panelalphaerr.png|200px|thumb|right|clean spw0-63 mfs nterms=2 alpha and alpha error (filtered at 0.2 mJy in tt0)]]
 
The lower panel to the right shows the intensity and LEL-filtered alpha images side-by-side in the viewer, zoomed in on the brightest source of emission.  Creating a box around this region and double-clicking reveals that the spectral index varies from around -0.33 to 1.4, with the pixels in the brightest portion of the image at around 0.8, similar to what we found by hand using the information from the single-baseband images. 
 
To get a sense of the probable errors for this spectral index information, we perform a similar filtering operation on the <tt>imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha.error>/tt> image:
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
immath(imagename=['imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha.error',
                  'imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0'],
      mode='evalexpr',
      expr='IM0[IM1>2E-4]',
      outfile='imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha.error.filtered')
</source>
 
Now, we can load both the <tt>alpha</tt> and <tt>alpha.error</tt> images side-by-side in the viewer:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
viewer('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.alpha.filtered')
</source>
 
As one might expect, the errors are higher outside the emission peak (see the screenshot on the right).  However, it seems possible that the <tt>.error</tt> image is underestimating the true errors on the mfs-calculated spectral index, since the central brightest pixels only have errors of around 0.15, when we calculated an alpha of 0.66 (compared with the mfs-calculated alpha of 0.8).  If we were planning to use the reported spectral index information for publication, we would need to go through a more thorough investigation of the actual error analysis and spectral index.
 
== Analyzing the image ==
 
From {{imstat}} on the final combined-baseband image, we got an image rms of 19.7 uJy.  A reasonable question to ask is what we would <i>expect</i> the image rms to be: one way to estimate this is to determine the effective on-source time, then input the appropriate parameters to the [https://science.nrao.edu/facilities/vla/proposing/evlaExpoCalc.jnlp VLA exposure calculator] to determine the expected rms.
 
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
listobs('G192_split_6s.ms', listunfl=True)
</source>
 
This will show:
<pre>
ID  Code Name                RA              Decl          Epoch  SrcId      nRows    nUnflRows
0    NONE G192.16-3.84        05:58:13.540000 +16.31.58.30001 J2000  0        2931890  2901697.32
</pre>
Note that the "nUnflRows," or number of unflagged rows, is 2901697.32.  Every row is a single baseline-integration-spw record, as you probably learned if you looked at the MS with {{browsetable}}.  So, to use this to calculate an "effective" exposure time for the VLA Exposure Calculator for 22 antennas (22*21/2 = 231 baselines), we find that time = 2901697.32 * 6 seconds / 231 baselines / 64 spectral windows = 1178 seconds = 19.6 minutes.  Our effective bandwidth is 7552 MHz, taking into account the spectral window selection.  Using the median frequency of 32.7 GHz, the [https://science.nrao.edu/facilities/vla/proposing/evlaExpoCalc.jnlp VLA exposure calculator] reports that we should achieve an image rms of 13.5 uJy.  Although our actual rms is somewhat higher, this is not unexpected; we have not done any self-calibration, for example.
 
Next, we will do some rough analysis on the spectral index to determine an intensity-weighted mean spectral index for G192.  The <tt>.image.tt1</tt> from our mfs is an intensity times alpha image (see the figure to the right).  Let's filter this Taylor-term image by intensity as we did with the <tt>.alpha</tt> image:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
# Removing any file output from previous runs, so immath will proceed
os.system('rm -rf imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt1.filtered')
immath(imagename=['imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt1',
                  'imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0'],
      mode='evalexpr',
      expr='IM0[IM1>2E-4]',
      outfile='imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt1.filtered')
#
# Removing any file output from previous runs, so immath will proceed
os.system('rm -rf imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0.filtered')
immath(imagename=['imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0'],
      mode='evalexpr',
      expr='IM0[IM0>2E-4]',
      outfile='imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0.filtered')
</source>
 
We can use the same region we created for {{imstat}}.  Let us compute the intensity-weighted spectral index over this region by averaging these masked images using {{imstat}} and computing the ratio:
<source lang="python">
# In CASA
mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt1.filtered',
                region='G192.crtf')
avgtt0alpha = mystat['mean'][0]
#
mystat = imstat('imgG192_6s_spw0-63_mfs2.image.tt0.filtered',
                region='G192.crtf')
avgtt0 = mystat['mean'][0]
avgalpha = avgtt0alpha / avgtt0
print 'G192 intensity-weighted alpha = ' + str(avgalpha)
</source>
We get:
<pre>
G192 intensity-weighted alpha = 0.737300481129
</pre>
 
This is pretty close to the value we found from the single-baseband images of alpha = 0.66, validating the results from mfs with <tt>nterms=2</tt>.
 
== What to do next: some exercises for the user ==
 
Here are a number of things you can try after completing this tutorial:
 
# Use self-calibration to improve the data and re-clean to make a better image.  See [http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=WorkshopSelfcal_(Caltech) this tutorial] for more information on self-calibration.
# Investigate the data further to see if any more flagging is needed.
# Image the calibrators.  What sort of dynamic range can you get on them?  Is self-calibration needed (and if so what dynamic range do you get when you use it)?
# Try the <tt>testautoflag</tt> task (in 3.3.0 and later) to automatically flag bad data (though there is not much left, really).  There is more information on running <tt>testautoflag</tt> in [http://casaguides.nrao.edu/index.php?title=EVLA_Wide-Band_Wide-Field_Imaging:_G55.7_3.4 this tutorial].
