Dispersion Map ∞
In the case of soxs_disp_solution
the output dispersion map hosts the coefficients (\(c_{ij}\)) to two polynomials that describe the global dispersion solution for the entire detector frame:
\[\begin{split}
X = \sum\limits_{ij} c_{ij} \times n^i \times \lambda^j \\
\end{split}\]
\[\begin{split}
Y = \sum\limits_{ij} c_{ij} \times n^i \times \lambda^j \\
\end{split}\]
soxs_spatial_solution
, building from this dispersion solution, provides global dispersion and spatial solution. The dispersion map output by this recipe hosts the coefficients (\(c_{ijk}\)) to two polynomials (note now the inclusion of slit position):
\[\begin{split}
X = \sum\limits_{ijk} c_{ijk} \times n^i \times \lambda^j \times s^k \\
\end{split}\]
\[\begin{split}
Y = \sum\limits_{ijk} c_{ijk} \times n^i \times \lambda^j \times s^k \\
\end{split}\]
