Abstract:
StarFinder is an code for the deep analysis of stellar fields,
designed for Adaptive Optics well-sampled images with high and
low Strehl ratio. The Point Spread Function is extracted directly
from the frame, to take into account the actual structure of the
instrumental response and the atmospheric effects. The code is
written in IDL language and organized in the form of a
self-contained widget-based application, provided with a series of
tools for data visualization and analysis. A description of the
method and some applications to Adaptive Optics data are presented.
Subject headings: astrometry, instrumentation: adaptive optics,
