Tutorials

These tutorials are runnable Jupyter notebooks from the notebooks/ directory of the repository, rendered here with their saved outputs. Each one is self-contained — download it and run it interactively to experiment.

Notebook

What it covers

Getting started with the WCC ETC

The scene → simulation → SNR workflow, updating parameters, and plotting.

Saturation flag demo

Peak-pixel and saturation flagging (get_peak_pixel, is_saturated).

from_sensorfilter — auto-selecting the PSF from the filter focus level

from_sensorfilter — automatic PSF selection by sensor:filter focus level.

04 — PSF simulator and PSF-aware SNR

The PSF simulator, ImageSimulator, and PSF-aware SNR with aperture optimization.

n_reads and exposure-time-for-SNR inverses

n_reads and the exposure-time-for-SNR inverses; per-frame saturation.

Parametric source spectra

Parametric source spectra (blackbody / flat / power law / emission) and rebuilding them via update.
