Add detector effects as default in the oversampled extension

[obi-wan76]

Currently, detector effects are included by default in the detector sampled extension. Detector effects in the oversample PSF can be include via the grid PSF function only. We should add detector effects (IPC/charge diffusion) to both extension by default. Note that IPC effects happens in the detector pixels, thus, physically it make sense just to have them included in the detector sample PSF, as currently implemented. However, people are increasingly interested in more realistic oversampled simulations as a way to compare with semi-empirical oversample PSF from observations.

Yes please, this would be really important for us. Thank you

See #768

Just confirming that if we install the latest develop version it will include this?

[obi-wan76]

Once the PR is merge, it is currently under revision.

[amn3142]

If you remember, could you let me know when this gets merged?

[amn3142]

Hi @obi-wan76 I was wondering if this was merged? Thanks

[obi-wan76]

@amn3142 This has been merge into dev. #768

[amn3142]

@obi-wan76 is there a new webbpsf_data file I need to download to use this feature?

[obi-wan76]

@amn3142 No, you just need to download and install the latest dev branch of WebbPSF. Once you do your simulations you can always check the information inside the fits file header (or the HDUList) to find the parameters for the detector effects. Thanks!
