Description

We build on previous efforts to model CCD sensors, during illumination and collection of conversions. We use a finite summation of simple, electrostatic field models. The upgraded functionality of our framework provides specific predictions for perturbations in pixel boundary enclosures (e.g., at the backside window) and the bookkeeping capability to stack those perturbations so that they may be utilized as Greens functions—portable calculation results that may be generically applied to a range of precision astronomy related problems that naturally include astrometric photometric and shape transfer issues. We approach the topic of using ancillary pixel data, derived from the Greens function and the registered image, to analyze sky data and constrain object parameters of astronomical targets
