... The stars examined here were primarily culled from two lists of X--ray sources in Orion. ... The second region is two degrees in extent east--west and ten degrees north--south with Orionis being near the northern edge. ... In the end, two main regions were chosen for monitoring: stars near Orionis and stars northwest of the belt of Orion. ... The PSPC identified 22 sources within 15 of Orionis in addition to the sources listed in Table 1 , giving a total of 85 X--ray sources in the Orionis region. ...

... This thread contains a step-by-step recipe to extract MOS spectra of a point-like source observed in Imaging mode and to create associated response matrices, starting from a calibrated, concatenated event list (either produced with emproc or available as PPS product; here it has the assumed file name MOS.fits ). ... The users should note that the SAS metatask xmmselect allows them to interactively define source and background regions (via ds9) and to run backscale on the fly. ...

The Planning and Scheduling Tool was designed allow the user easily to take advantage of all available resources of the four telescopes (LASCO's three coronagraphs and the EIT Telescope) to maximize the use of the telemetry downlink. The Planning Tool allows users to develop customized observing sequences while monitoring compression factors and on-board processing times to realistically work within the limits of the instruments. ...

The information path to prepare, perform and reduce a radioastronomical observation, using the Arcos correlator , is schematized in the figure: . The programs reside part on the computer network of the Arcetri Observatory, and part at the Medicina Radio Telescope . All programs running at Arcetri are written for a Sun workstation, and are public domain software, available upon request. Programs running at the telescope are written for a PC with DOS/Windows (or Linux).

... The VSOP Survey Continuum Source List . The radio sample for the VSOP continuum survey was defined to include all extragalactic radio sources with: . a total flux density at 5 GHz, S>=1.0 Jy . ... The sample also included all sources in the sky with a 5 GHz flux density S>5 Jy, regardless of spectral index and galactic latitude. ... The source would then be included in the VSOP sample (three of the sources were found with a flux density above 1 Jy and added to the sample). ...
