**beam_nfreq_avg**: the number of fine frequency channels to calculate a beam for, using the average of the frequencies. The beam is a function of frequency, and a calculation on the finest level is most correct (beam_nfreq_avg=1). However, this is computationally difficult for most machines. <br />

**beam_offset_time**: calculate the beam at a specific time within the observation. 0 seconds indicates the start of the observation, and the # of seconds in an observation indicates the end of the observation. <br />

**gaussian_source_models**: uses SHAPE information provided in the sky catalog to build Gaussian models of extended sources. See Line et al. 2020 for more details on implementation. The models are only accurate to within ~10\%, and this is an ongoing issue (see Issue [\#211](https://github.com/EoRImaging/FHD/issues/211)). <br />

**dead_dipole_list**: an array of 3 x # of dead dipoles, where column 0 is the tile name, column 1 is the polarization (0:x, 1:y), and column 2 is the dipole number. These dipoles are flagged, which greatly increases memory usage due to the creation of many separate tile beams. <br />
