Dear Friends,
I don't know if somebody else posted this question, but could you help me to understand which is the minimum level of the SNR value acceptable to perform photometric investigation on a stellar source? It depends from the background? With which relationship?
Thank you very much,
Massimiliano Martignoni
Massimiliano:
There is a good discussion of SNR in the AAVSO CCD observers manual at http://vsnet.aavso.org/observing/programs/ccd/manual/ . This should get you started.
Regards,
Doug West
