Explore implications for E-ELT: wide-field imager which needs very faint stars.

-== Activity plan +
- +
-* MICADO simulated images. Provided by Remko et al.: +
-   * single chip, single epoch, regular grid of intrinsic star positions PSFs(seeing,zenith angle, field angle(=dist-to-GS), GS=guidestar mag, lambda).  +
- +
-^Effect^Include?^ +
-|pixelsampling | yes |  +
-|Instrumental geom. distorsion | no | +
-|Telescope instabilities | no? | +
-|Achromatic differential refraction | yes | +
-|Chromatic differential refraction | yes | +
-|AO guidestar measurement errors | yes | +
-|Atmos. Differential tilt jitter | yes?| +
-|Anisoplanatism MAORY | no | +
-| Galaxies as calibrators | N/A| +
-| Sky projected pixelscale | no | +
- +
-   * set 1: sanity check: single PSF over FoV, no ADC effects +
-   * set 2: add varying PSF over FoV +
-   * set 3: add ADC +
-   * Each set N(=1000?) random realizations at fixed exposure time (~few sec?) to verify "~1/sqrt(time)" effects and measure repeatability/robustness analysis.  +
-   * (Somehow) assemble such images from existing material:  +
-      * PSFs from LESIA +
-      * Remko's ADC distorsion models +
-      * Atul Deep's images?  +
- +
- +
- +
-   * step0: ideal detectors (no detector rotations, pixelscale differences). Ideal MICADO: no geometric distorsion from MICADO optics. +
-   * step1: include distorsions due to ADC (series of ADC designs?) +
-   * step2: add distorsions due to atmosphere  +
-   * If not available: more relevance to analyse other set of images:  +
-      * MAD/GeMS: +end-to-end test, -comparison to MICADO? +
-      * on-axis only: +towards MICADO-like, -assumptions on off-axis behavior? +
-* Scale astrometric challenge in units PSF/pixelscale +
-   * can be done? +
-* Build astrometric testbed pipeline to process MICADO simulated images. Provided by Gijs et al. +
-  * quantify source extraction accuracy (Sextractor extraction sufficient? Or starfinder required?): multiple realizations +
-  * first single exposure astrometric solution based on reference exposure or true positions. +
-     * Quantify distorsions: parameterize or look-up table. +
-     * Current status: rms=1/10th pixel / 1/20th PSF (exposure-to-exposure) accuracy for real optical/near-IR data from telescope not optimized for astrometry. Accuracy of external catalog folded in. +
-  * next astrom solution based on ensemble of (dithered) exposures (use current astrometric pipeline (SCAMP and/or LDAC)) +
-  * output: x,y,ra,dec of stars + parametric fit to systematic distorsions over FoV. +
- +
-== Scratch notes +
-* Austria - NL MICADO meeting 9-10 sep (conflict Gijs) +
-   * astrom postdoc plan: high-precision astrometry (from local to global) +
-      * science cases: MICADO (Eline+Koen) + workout AGN +
-      * instruments: local astrom: MAD, GEMS, HST, MICADO-SIM,  +
-      * global astrom: Euclid-KiDS +
-      * LDAC +
-   * Project postdoc/PhD plan on time-line: NL status: funding, HR +
