CApphot:NetCountErrT CApphot:MagError

CApphot:Mag


Returns the value of the astronomical magnitude measurement resulting from the photometry measurement. This gives the magnitude value associated with the net signal inside the object measuring aperture and above the background value.

Syntax

nMag = CApphot:Mag()

    nMag is the value of the magnitude.

Remarks

The Measure method saves its measurements in a class data structure. This method fetches the value of the nMag member. The uncertainty associated with the magnitude measurement can be fetched using MagErr or MagErrT. There are also legacy method for these error measurements, named MagError and MagErrorT.
