/** pmPSF data structure
 * 
 * It is useful to generate a model to define the point-spread-function which
 * describes the flux distribution for unresolved sources in an image. In
 * general, the PSF varies with position in the image. We allow any of the source
 * models defined for the pmModel to represent the PSF. For a given source model,
 * the 2D spatial variation of all of the source parameters, except the first
 * four PSF-independent parameters, are represented as polynomial, stored in a
 * psArray. The other elements of the structure define the quality of the PSF
 * determination.
