PMODEL
Type: Adverb (REAL(7))
Use: This adverb specifies a source polarization model of a single
point source:
PMODEL(1) = I flux density (Jy)
PMODEL(2) = Q flux density (Jy)
PMODEL(3) = U flux density (Jy)
PMODEL(4) = V flux density (Jy)
PMODEL(5) = X offset in sky (arcsec)
PMODEL(6) = Y offset in sky (arcsec)
Null Value: 0
A null value of PMODEL(1) means no single-component model is
specified;
Tasks:
FRCAL.....Faraday rotation self calibration task.
MAPBM.....Map VLA beam polarization.
PCAL......Determines instrumental polarization for UV data.
RLCAL.....Determines instrumental right-left phase versus time (a
self-cal).
