Next: Summary of reduction Up: Echelle Reduction Previous: Saving the Data . In the present version we will be concerned with the standard configuration of CASPEC, the Cassegrain Echelle Spectrograph which is in operation at the Cassegrain focus of the ESO 3.6 m telescope. ... In its standard configuration CASPEC uses a a 31.6 lines/mm echelle grating together with a 300 lines/mm grating cross disperser. ... The table shows the change in resolution with the order number. Table: Resolution . ...

... The flag selections are read from the DSS keywords of the input image. ... The following filters are read from the data subspace keywords of the input images and are taken into account for the calculation of the exposure maps: TIME range filters, GTI filters, CCDNR range filters, FLAG range filters, FLAG bit-mask filters. If parameter usedss is set to false, the task tries to determine the exposure time by looking for gti extensions in the input image of the form STDGTInn, STDGTIn, STDGT, or GTI. ...

Cosmic Origins SpectrographInstrument Handbook for Cycle 24 > Chapter 3: Description and Performance of the COS Optics > 3.2 Size of a Resolution Element . ... Size of a Resolution Element . Throughout this document, we assume that a resolution element (resel) spans 6 в 10 pixels on the FUV detector (in the dispersion and cross-dispersion directions, respectively) and 3 в 3 pixels on the NUV detector ( Table 1.2 ). ...

. The description of the instrument is divided into the following sections: . Optical Design . Cryogenics and Mechanics . Electronics and Software . Determination of Detector parameters . Some photos of the instrument . Other high resolution images .

... The Miriad task uvgen can be used to simulate a variety of observing modes. ... Simulating a telescope approximately, let alone in some detail, requires a good many parameters. uvgen takes an appreciable number of parameters and input files to describe the telescope, correlator and source. Fortunately keyword and set-up files for some common situations exist ( e.g. simulating the ATCA and VLA). ... For example, to load typical parameters for the ATCA, use miriad% source $MIRCAT/uvgen.def.atca . ...

... The project assumes creation of an international space observatory - the interferometer "Earth - Space - Space" in order to perform of astronomical investigations in millimeter, submillimeter and infrared regions with extremely high sensitivity (to a few nanoJanskies units of flux density in continuum spectrum) and extremely high angular resolution (to a parts of microsecond of arc or, possibly, nanosecond). ... radio-interferometric channels of the system "Space - Space", region 0.2 - 3 mm; . ...

A single value for the normalization (i.e., fixed normalization) will force the program to use that value. ...

... Figure: Massive binary evolutionary track. ... A short glance to this track is sufficient to understand that there are a lot of evolutionary scenario parameters, which affect different stages of the binary evolution. Fortunately, a very limited number of parameters has effect on the compact binary merging rate. ... The most important (and practically unique) parameter changing the galactic binary NS merging rate is the distribution of an additional (kick) velocity imparted to NS at birth. ...

... Second, the observatory can control the configuration, test data analysis procedures, and provide calibration solutions with the help of instrument models. This paper presents the VLT object-oriented framework for the development of ETCs (Exposure Time Calculators) and data simulators. ... Instrument simulations are being developed for the purpose of predictive calibration, instrument configuration control, and evaluation of data analysis procedures. ...

Static Fourier spectrometers are often used for spectral measurements of the ionosphere emissions. There are two main advantages of Fourier spectrometers (FS) - large geometric factor and high spectral resolution; these parameters are two orders better than for grating spectral instruments. ... In scanning Fourier spectrometer optical and electric modulation of signal is used to avoid this problem, for static Fourier spectrometer there are no such ways. ...

... Thus all regions of the 0.94-2.50 micron wavelength range accessible from Mauna Kea can be recorded using five fixed angle gratings. ... Grating Angle . ... Efficiencies for the NIFS gratings are shown above. The NIFS spectrograph uses a Bouwers collimator and a refractive camera. ... With these assumptions, the NIFS system efficiency including the Gemini telescope optics but excluding the transmission of the adaptive optics system is about 0.17 e - /photon at J , and 0.22 e - /photon at H and K . ...
