| Description |
|
Observe the attached image ``Comparison_data_simulations.png''. Top left: Cutout from real data (19358r1), bright spot at position x=63, y=151, i.e., bottom left part of the detector. Bottom left: Cutout from real data (19358r1), taken at positions x=4012, y=153, i.e., bottom right part of the detector. See the obvious differences in the shape of the PSF between the simulated and real images at the (basically) same position of the detector. I will investigate if this is actually concerning. Asking Jim will be the first step. |

Sent an email to Jim on Jul 23. |

Jim asked me to check if the simulations agree with Zemax. Especially when looking at the picture taken from the lower part of the detector, I think it is safe to say that simulated and Zemax data agree with each other, while not agreeing with the real data. |

One possible explanation is that maybe the instrument has a slightly different focus than expected. For example, shows the shape of the PSF when we slowly change defocus. The orientation of the spot will change depending on the defocus value and perhaps we are just in a bit different regime than what Jim and Zemax expected? |

I suggest closing this ticket, and running with the explanation proposed above, i.e., that the actual instrument a bit different focus regime than expected. |
