SLIDE 3 MUSE IFU (Integral Field Unit)

This fusion process needs to eliminate cosmic rays or outliers pixels, take into account seeing, variation of acquisition (sky background, registration on the same lattice, etc.). Fusion process has to
- eliminate cosmic rays : easier if done on the CCD matrix without any pre-
processing because cosmic rays corrupt a neighborhood around a central location, according to impact angle ;
- take into account dead pixels (more generally all outliers including cosmic
rays), FSF-LSF and sensor noise ;
- Make information fusion and give uncertainty on each location on the
reconstructed hyperspectral data cube .

Image formation modeling : direct problem
- Model Space : 3D space where objects are observed (part of the celest
sphere), with a topology and an arbitrary geometry : spatial square sam- pling grid, spectral sampling grid from λ0 with a step λp. F stands for continous ideal image whereas X represents the sampled ideal image.
- Image space (2D space) : focal plane where the image is formed within
MUSE IFU, between the fore optic and the field Splitter. After succes- sive cut by splitter and slicers, each sub-image is spread thanks to the spectroscope and is printed on the CCD surface (Sensor space).
- Each column in the sensor space Y corresponds to a spectrum line, each
line stands for spatial image. Image reconstruction modeling : inverse problem in a Bayesian framework

T
Truth
- Let T be the truth defined within the model space (u, z).
- Let F = T ⋆ϕ be the ideal image, with finite spatial and spectral resolution
corresponding to the truth T observed with a perfect telescope modelized by a B-spline of degree 3 ϕ.
- F, T, X are all hyperspectral cubes (also called image hereafter)
F = T ⋆ ϕ the truth 3D-filtered by a B-spline of degree 3
Image F sampled according to Shan- non condition : in this sense, X is the ideal sampled image. 4

X = L ⋆ϕ sampled on a lattice of variable resolu- tion : Xp = F(p)
F can be interpolated on each location (u, z) using the following expression: F(u, z) =
Ljkϕ(u − j)ϕ(z − k) (1) where j ∈ Z2 stands for the spatial samples and k ∈ Z for the spectral samples. Coefficients Ljk are now called interpolation coefficients or B-spline coeffi-
- cients. Xp = F(p) is the digital version of F linked to interpolation coefficients
