Background error propagation in non-IFU background subtraction #8522

Closed stscijgbot-jp closed 5 months ago

Issue JP-3643 was created on JIRA by Ian Wong:

Current spectral extraction for non-IFU observations does not propagate the uncertainty in the background to the resultant background-corrected flux uncertainty. This can be implemented by adding the background variance arrays to the flux variance arrays within the _extract_src_flux subroutine in extract1d.py in a manner similar to what was recently implemented for IFU annular background subtraction in ifu.py (see JP-3637)
