Release v2.2.0 - S26A Call for Proposals

This release is prepared for the Subaru S26A Call for Proposals period and includes important improvements to the PFS Exposure Time Calculator web application.

🚀 What's New

Default Parameter Updates

  • OBSPROC-125: Updated default exposure setting to 2×450s for improved observation efficiency
  • OBSPROC-126: Set default Moon Zenith Angle to 60 degrees for more realistic observing conditions
  • Updated documentation to reflect the new default values

Enhanced Saturation Detection

  • OBSPROC-123: Fixed total-to-per-pixel conversion for saturation calculations
  • OBSPROC-112: Enhanced saturation detection and reporting in simulation
  • Revised saturation thresholds and improved documentation
  • Fixed saturation count scaling from total to per-pixel values

Bug Fixes and Improvements

  • Fixed typos in spectral templates and regular expressions
  • Used raw strings to properly escape regular and mathematical expressions
  • Fixed reset functionality for observation parameter loops
  • Improved widget visibility handling during reset/execution cycles
  • Added important notes about unrealistic observing conditions

📋 Technical Details

Key Changes Since v2.1.0

  • Improved exposure time calculation accuracy
  • Better handling of saturation limits
  • More realistic default observing parameters
  • Enhanced user interface responsiveness
  • Better documentation and error messaging

For Proposal Preparers

This release provides:

  • More accurate exposure time estimates
  • Realistic default parameters based on typical PFS observing conditions
  • Improved saturation warnings and detection
  • Better guidance for unrealistic parameter combinations

🔗 Related Issues

  • OBSPROC-112: Saturation detection enhancement
  • OBSPROC-123: Saturation calculation fixes
  • OBSPROC-125: Default exposure time updates
  • OBSPROC-126: Moon zenith angle defaults

📝 Notes for S26A CfP Users

This version is specifically prepared for the S26A Call for Proposals. The updated default parameters reflect current best practices for PFS observations and should provide more accurate exposure time estimates for proposal preparation.
