Selfcalibration for individual LOFAR sources and facets. If you use facetselfcal or extraction for scientific work, please cite the van Weeren et al. (2021, A&A, 651, 115) paper.
Requirements:
- https://github.com/jurjen93/lofar_helpers
- Container with all standard LOFAR software: https://tikk3r.github.io/flocs/
Installation:
create a directory and
git clone https://github.com/jurjen93/lofar_helpers.git
git clone https://github.com/rvweeren/lofar_facet_selfcal.git
Usage:
HBA Dutch baselines for extracted LoTSS data from the ddf-pipeline:
