- | Inside SPHIRE, we define the spatial frequencies are handled in absolute units. This means that the spatial frequencies are expressed in term of pixels units, or absolute frequency $f_a$, instead of units of inverse distance. In this way $f_a=0$ corresponds to the zero Fourier term (zero frequency), while $f_a=0.5$ | ||
