The close position of main satellite and subsatellite (distance between them about 1000 km) and using the similar sets of Faraday cups (VDP and VDP-S) with high resolution measurements (up to 16 Hz for the main satellite and up to 10 Hz for the subsatellite) allow us to determine the small-scale variations of the magnetopause shape and position and to estimate the velocity of the magnetopause motion. ... Two point observation of the magnetopause motion: the INTERBALL project. ...

The second is the internal geometric accuracy of an FOC image itself, including the correctness of the distortion model, the plate scale, and the image rotation. ... The accuracy with which HST places a target in the FOC field of view depends in a complex way on the target coordinate uncertainty, the positions of the guide stars in the FGS fields of view, and the alignment of the FOC imaging aperture with respect to the FGS reference frame. ...

Next: Catalog Construction Up: Observations and Analysis Previous: Source Detections . ... It was assumed that the highest signal gives the most likely position of the source. ... Comparing the summed map with the maps from the individual energy ranges, the one which produced the smallest error box was chosen to represent the source position, as long as was greater than 4, a level chosen to reflect a reasonable degree of confidence in the detection. ...

These observations are aimed at fully charactering FORS1 photometric system (UBVRI zero-points, color-terms and extinction coefficients) for the Tektronix 2048x2048 pixel CCD (24µm px) . To this aim, the two Landolt/Stetson photometric fields SA95 and SA101 will be observed on a number of epochs and at different airmasses during February and March 2007. ... SA101 . ... OBs for SA101 have to be observed during evenigh twilight (exceptions are expected for the second half of March) . ...

The MAST Pointings Tables Pro ject Karen Levay, Paolo Padovani1 , Randall Thompson, Megan Donahue, Michael Corbin Space Telescope Science Institute, 3700 San Martin Drive, Baltimore, MD 21218 Abstract. We have undertaken a pro ject to create a database of all HST imaging observations organized by position on the sky. ... Each sky region was called a "pointing." ... Users select the instrument pointings table they wish to search. ...

... Two files from two exposures (even from different observations or instruments) are taken as input. These may be EPIC event lists or two other additional files (attitude files, orbit files etc [see comments]). ... Warnings are given when the event files are deemed not entirely compatible (i.e. their INSTRUME or FILTER keywords are different). ... Given here is a summary of the current conditions whereby event files (or parts thereof [blocks/columns etc]) are or are not merged. ...

The steps in making a pointing model are listed below. ... While tracking the source rise to set, the tiedowns are pulled through a range of about 14 inches (taking 14 minutes) . ... We need a strong point source as sband because we want to measure the peak even when we are out of focus (so we can determine the best za location). ...

... The ROSAT Consortium (the Max-Planck-Institut fuer extraterrestrische Physik, the Goddard Space Flight Center, the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, Leicester University, and the Astrophysikalisches Institut Potsdam) announces the release of the completed source catalogs of all ROSAT pointed observations. ...
