- Working out how much background for each pixel
|
|
- I will get these statistics for each exposure time in the dark frames that I have taken and plot the peak value as a function of exposure time and the error as a function of exposure time.
- There are big gaps between the bins which I am not sure why.
- Edit - the gaps are due to the fact that the histogram only takes integer values so increasing the number of bins leads to more gaps in the histogram.

- Histrogram of number of photoelectrons for a 0.1s exposure in the dark frame with 45 bins.:

|
- Also plotted a histogram for the sum of pixel along the x-axis values against frequency for a 0.1s exposure in the dark frame which follows a Poisson distribution
- The histograms from the sum of pixels along the y-axis follows a Gaussian distribution.
|
|
- Plotted the median intensity of the pixels as a function of exposure time using the values given from the image using np.median in python. I am yet to work out the errors.
