  • Position: ra,dec of image center
  • Size: NAXIS1, NAXIS2 in pixels, from FITS file
  • Resolution: sqrt(BMAJ*BMIN), beam axial ratio BMAJ/BMIN. In some cases of wide fractional bandwidth CASA may write the beams to a FITS table extension, in which case the resolution of the of the lowest frequency plane plane (resolution varies with frequency, most users will convolve to the lowest resolution) . Note that for narrow spw, CASA will place the BMAJ and BMIN keywords in the header, but for wide spectral windows they can be placed in a table attachmentis the one to use: will need a new story for this case, in the meantime BMAJ and BMIN are set to zero if they are not present in the header.
  • start time: DATE-OBS from FITS file

  • minimum frequency 
  • maximum frequency 
  • spectral resolution (spectral channel width (Hz); CDELT3 in the FITS header): will need a new story
