Observation Setup

Integration Time=  sec      Number of Frames=  

The total Exposure Time is the product of the Integration Time and the Number of Frames.

Calculations and Outputs


      Object Signal=  counts/s
                                            S/N=  (per pixel for an extended object)

For a point source object the simulator also calculates the signal at the intensity peak.

Intensity Peak=  counts/s
