Scientific paper

A method is presented for determination of the low-frequency flat-field (L-flat) structure from photometry of a stellar field that is imaged multiple times with different pointing or roll. A numerical implementation of the algorithm is presented and its accuracy verified using tests with artificially generated data. The software was used to generate the L-flats currently in the ACS pipeline. Newly implemented features in the software should allow further improvements in these L-flats.
