New algorithm to compute the flux spectrum

Francisco Llaneras   (05 February 2008)  Technical University of Valencia email

We have described a modified algorithm to compute the flux spectrum that overcomes a limitation of the one given in this paper. The old algorithm (eq. 10) can lead to a slight, but unnecessary, magnification of the effect of the uncertainty. We have checked that this effect is negligible in the examples used to illustrate the paper; However, the new algorithm will yield slightly better results in the general case.

You can find details about the new algorithm, the new matlab files and other resources concerning this work in the following webpage: http://science.ensilicio.com/

Please contact us with any doubt, to discuss the paper or to suggest any kind of collaboration.

Best regards,
