Differencing and Coadding JWST Images with Matched Point-spread Function

We present an algorithm to derive difference images for data taken with JWST with matched point-spread functions (PSFs). It is based on the saccadic fast Fourier transform method but with revisions to accommodate the rotations and spatial variations of the PSFs. It allows for spatially varying kerne...
