)

Return center-selected elliptical-annulus effective in-frame pixel counts.

Parameters

x, y : scalar or array_like

Aperture center coordinates in pixel units. Shapes must match after numpy.atleast_1d. The return shape matches that broadcast-free input shape, so scalar inputs return one-element arrays.

a_in, b_in, a_out, b_out : float

Inner and outer ellipse semiaxes in pixels. Inner axes must be no larger than the corresponding outer axes, and at least one outer axis must be larger.

theta_in : float, optional = 0.0

Inner ellipse rotation angle in radians.

theta_out : float or None, optional = None

Outer ellipse rotation angle in radians. If None, uses theta_in.

shape : tuple[int, int]

Image shape as (ny, nx) used to clip the aperture footprint.

mask : array_like of bool, optional = None

Boolean image mask with shape shape. True pixels are excluded from the returned effective pixel count.

Returns

npix : ndarray

Effective pixel count inside the image frame.

Notes

For matched inner and outer angles, this uses outer-minus-inner direct center aperture summation. For split-angle annuli, it uses Rust-generated bbox-tight annulus weights and the same center-boundary convention as bbox-tight weights.
