Version History

version 0.3.5. - Experimental version for both single and frequency-cube corrections.

version 0.3.6. - Cube correction with proper header retention for both cubes and single frequency fits images.

version 0.3.7 - Manual beam threshold and support for JVLA beams.

Citation

If Finalflash saves your analysis from the chaos of uncorrected primary beams and handling CASA tasks, give it a little love in your acknowledgements! Add this line in the acknowledgement section:

"Primary beam corrections were performed using Finalflash, hosted at https://github.com/arpan-52/Finalflash."

Until it makes its debut on ASCL or I finally write my holography paper, your acknowledgement would be super appreciated. As some random user in the internet mentioned: "Science without ethics is like a spaceship without fuel—sure, it looks good, but it’s going nowhere."
