Trade between OF and number of rays with coronagraphic simulation #62

Closed Jashcraf closed 8 months ago

Jashcraf commented 1 year ago

OF = 1

OF = 1.4

OF = 1.7

OF = 2

Overlap factor doesn't seem to be a huge factor in the final contrast, maybe it's best to just go with OF = 1.7 and proceed. But! Today isn't a workday, so I may as well let the script run and just look at the data when it's all done. Maybe stopping the script at 600 beamlets is a good idea.

Maybe we default to OF = 2 and examine the fibbo case too

Woops the OF2 case for 300beams wasn't done so it defaulted to the OF 1.4 case! When that finishes I'll update the simulation and we can consider going to an OF of 2, and then repeating it for the fibbonacci sampling cases.
