  • phasecentre – Centre of components

  • frequency – Frequency

  • pbtype – Type of primary beam

  • offset_dir – Offset in ra, dec degrees

  • flux_limit – Lower limit flux

  • pbradius – Radius of components in radians

  • pb_npixel – Number of pixels in the primary beam model

  • pb_cellsize – Cellsize in primary beam model

  • fov – FOV in degrees (used to select catalog)

  • flux_max – Maximum flux in model before application of primary beam

  • polarisation_frame –

  • apply_pb – Apply the primary beam to the output components

  • show –
