PSF Photometry of Multiple Overlapping Stars
• Data: single image, time-series of images, etc...
• Parameters:
θ(1) = x(1)
0
, y(1)
0
, F(1), B
...
θ(K) = x(K)
0
, y(K)
0
, F(K), B
That’s a total of 3K + 1 parameters!
• Model:
PSF x, y, θ(k) = F(k)h x − x(k), y − y(k) +
B
K
• Objective:
θ = arg min
θ∈Θ x,y
dataxy −
