This branch is now extremely out of date, but the text and new references should be good.

@mrawls there is already some diffim text from #29. I will combine it with your text and then someone later can decide if there is any duplication (I haven't looked).

diffim.tex Outdated
After the \texttt{detectAndMeasure} step, some bogus DiaSources are expected due to reflective artificial objects orbiting the Earth.
These may originate from, e.g., satellites or space debris, which are most numerous in low-Earth orbit.
Objects in this region, with orbital altitude below 2000 km, move fast across the sky and can leave long streaks that cross one or more LSSTCam detectors.
For more details on how LSSTCam will be affected by bright streaks, see \citet{Tyson20,Hasan22,Polin24,Snyder24,Polin25}.

What is the Tyson 20 reference? It's not in the local.bib changes below.

Also, please use ADS bibcodes as bib keys so that we can keep track of the citations without risk of duplicate keys (Since we do move all the references into lsst-texmf to allow us to remove duplication and we can't do that if there are lots of Smith19 references to different things).

diffim.tex Outdated

\item Streak detection and masking.
This is part of \texttt{meas\_algorithms} and runs during \texttt{detectAndMeasure}.
It adds a STREAK mask plane to the difference images by searching for linear features with a Canny filter and the Kernel-Based Hough Transform \citep{FernandesOliveira08}.

Maybe this line or a variation on it could be moved to 6.3.2 MaskStreaksTask, and then just put a reference to that subsection here.

@mrawls I've rebased again and switched the references to use ADS bibcodes. I won't merge because there is one unresolved comment.
