make_hst_aperture

hcipy.aperture.make_hst_aperture(normalized=False, with_spiders=True, with_pads=True)

Make the Hubble Space Telescope aperture.

This function uses values from TinyTim [Krist2011].

Krist, Hook and Stoehr, “20 years of Hubble Space Telescope optical modelling using Tiny Tim” Proc. SPIE 8127 (2011).

Note

This aperture only includes the primary and secondary masks, not any masks internal to the instruments.

Parameters:

normalizedboolean: If this is True, the outer diameter will be scaled to 1. Otherwise, the diameter of the pupil will be 2.4 meters.
with_spiders: boolean: If this is False, the spiders will be left out.

Returns:
