Gino Tosti – INFN Perugia4DC2 Closeout Meeting - GSFC May 31 –June 2, 2006 PGWave Code PGWave is the “a priori” source detection code which implement a medley of several methods: Wavelet Transform (Mexican Hat) - Sliding Cell - Threshold and Find algorithms

Gino Tosti – INFN Perugia5DC2 Closeout Meeting - GSFC May 31 –June 2, 2006 PGWave input options In order to detect the maximum number of sources: We used 8 Wavelet scales: (in pixels). We set the threshold k-significance of the detection at the minimum (equivalent to about 2 sigma, see Damiani et al. 1997). We disabled the more than one scale detection option. We disabled the S/N ratio threshold option
