approximate_primary_beam_sizes¶
- astroquery.alma.utils.approximate_primary_beam_sizes(frequency_support_str, dish_diameter=<Quantity 12. m>, first_null=1.22)[source]¶
Using parse_frequency_support, determine the mean primary beam size in each observed band
- Parameters:
- frequency_support_strstr
The frequency support string, see
parse_frequency_support
- dish_diameter
Quantity
Meter-equivalent unit. The diameter of the dish.
- first_nullfloat
The position of the first null of an Airy. Used to compute resolution as \(R = 1.22 \lambda/D\)
