  Description     : ESO data reduction pipeline for MUSE

This is the data reduction pipeline for the MUSE instrument of the Very
Large Telescope (VLT) from the European Southern Observatory (ESO)
.
MUSE, the Multi-Unit Spectroscopic Explorer, is an Integral Field
Spectrograph located at the Nasmyth B focus of Yepun, the VLT UT4
telescope. It has a modular structure composed of 24 identical IFU
modules that together sample, in Wide Field Mode (WFM), a
near-contiguous 1 squared arcmin field of view. Spectrally the
instrument samples almost the full optical domain with a mean resolution
of 3000. Spatially, the instrument is designed to exploit the VLT AO
Facility via the GALACSI AO system, sampling the sky with 0.2 arcseconds
spatial pixels.

The software is not officially released yet. However, a prerelease is
available on the ESO FTP server. I intend to put this into experimental
to collect experiences until the official release is made.

Best regards

Ole
