Description

       This  recipe  is  used  to  extract  scientific objects spectra on a resampled image produced with recipe
       fors_resample, at the positions listed in the object table produced by recipe fors_detect_objects. Please
       refer to the FORS Pipeline User´s Manual for more details on object extraction.

       In the table below the MXU acronym can be alternatively read as MOS and LSS, and SCI as STD.

       Input files:

Name

       fors_extract_objects - Extract objects in slit spectra

Options

--ext_mode<int>
              Object extraction method: 0 = aperture, 1 = Horne optimal extraction (int; default: 1).  The  full
              name  of  this  option  for  the  EsoRex  configuration file is fors.fors_extract_objects.ext_mode
              [default = 1].

       Note that it is possible to create a configuration file containing these  options,  along  with  suitable
       default values. Please refer to the details provided by the 'esorex --help' command.
