pynrc.maths.coords.Tel2Sci_info(channel, coords, pupil=None, output='sci', return_apname=False, **kwargs)[source]

Telescope coords converted to Science coords

Returns the detector name and position associated with input coordinates. This is alway relative to a full frame detector aperture. The detector that is chosen is the one whose center is closest to the input coords.

Parameters
  • channel (str) – ‘SW’ or ‘LW’

  • coords (tuple) – Telescope coordinates (V2,V3) in arcsec.

  • output (str) –

    Type of desired output coordinates.

    • det: pixels, in raw detector read out axes orientation

    • sci: pixels, in conventional DMS axes orientation

    • idl: arcsecs relative to aperture reference location.

    • tel: arcsecs V2,V3
