NAME: synstar2 PURPOSE: (one line) Compute a synthetic (Lorentizian) star image. DESCRIPTION: This uses the functional form of a Lorentzian point-spread function as described in Bosh et. al., Icarus, 95, 319-324 (1992). CATEGORY: Astronomy CALLING SEQUENCE: image = synstar(nx,ny,x,y,flux,power,fwhm) INPUTS: nx - X dimension of image. ny - Y dimension of image. x - X location(s) of synthetic star(s). y - Y location(s) of synthetic star(s). flux - Integrated strength of star(s). power- Exponent for the r dependence (must be greater than 1) fwhm - Full Width at Half Maximum of stellar image. OPTIONAL INPUT PARAMETERS: KEYWORD PARAMETERS: OUTPUTS: return - nx by ny image containing star.
