WFI¶

class webbpsf.WFI[source]¶

Bases: webbpsf.wfirst.WFIRSTInstrument

WFI represents the WFIRST wide field imager for the WFIRST mission

WARNING: This model has not yet been validated against other PSF: simulations, and uses several approximations (e.g. for mirror polishing errors, which are taken from HST).

Initiate WFI

set_pupil_mask_onbool or None: Set to True or False to force using or not using the cold pupil mask, or to None for the automatic behavior.

Attributes Summary

`detector`	Detector selected for simulated PSF
`filter`	Currently selected filter name (e.g.
`pupil`
`pupil_mask`	Currently selected Lyot pupil mask, or None for direct imaging

Attributes Documentation

detector¶

Detector selected for simulated PSF

Used in calculation of field-dependent aberrations. Must be selected from detectors in the detector_list attribute.
