Bases: TelescopeParameters

Parameters for a coronagraph telescope.

Parameters:

  • aperture (astropy.units.Quantity) – The aperture size of the telescope.

  • zodi (float) – The level of the zodiacal background. Acceptable values range from 1.0 (Ecliptic pole/minimum) to 100.0 (Close to ecliptic/Sun).

  • exozodi (float) – The level of the exozodiacal background.

  • contrast (float) – The contrast level.

  • IWA (PSGtable) – The inner working angle of the coronagraph
