make_dummy_table_catalog

romanisim.catalog.make_dummy_table_catalog(coord, radius=0.1, rng=None, nobj=1000, bandpasses=None, seed=None)

Make a dummy table catalog.

Fluxes are assigned to bands at random. Locations are random within the spherical cap defined by coord and radius.

Parameters:

coordastropy.coordinates.SkyCoord

Location around which to generate catalog

radiusfloat

Radius in degrees of spherical cap in which to generate sources

rnggalsim.BaseDeviate

Random number generator to use

nobjint

Number of objects to generate in spherical cap.

bandpasseslist[str]

List of names of bandpasses in which to generate fluxes.

Returns:

astropy.table.Table

Table including fields needed to generate a list of CatalogObject entries for rendering.
