(a) The mean error in the position of the origin measured as a function of the gain for the CCD. The theoretical data was obtained using a computational model for photon and instrument noise, and the mean was calculated from a sequence of 100 different profiles for the PSF (see fig. 7 caption for more details). (b) The average value of r2 for the least-squares fit as a function of the gain.
