HIPE Contributed Software

This page contains contributed prototype scripts, which may one day enter in a HIPE build.

Combining PACS and SPIRE spectra

This script is already in the HIPE build, from version 9.x on, it's available in both SPIRE and PACS builds under the Scripts : PACS/SPIRE Useful Scripts drop-down menu. The up-to-date usage is given in the Herschel Data Analysis Guide, section 6.12 (for HIPE 9.x) or section 6.9 (for the upcoming HIPE 10).

SPIRE Photometry

Source extraction using timeline data

Tests have demonstrated that a source fitter working on the detectors' timeline works better than the map-based, such as sourceExtractorDaophot or sourceExtractorSussex.

The timeline fitter task is already included in the HIPE releases, from version 9.x on. How to use it is explained in details in the SPIRE Data Analysis Guide, section 5.7.1.4.
