... The Science Operation Department is composed of Astronomers, Telescope Instruments Operators(TIOs) and Data Handling Administrators(DHAs). ... Astronomers have proposed several methods to quantitatively measure the amount of turbulence above the telescope, which the most common ones is Differential Image Motion Monitor (DIMM). In optical testing, the Hartmann test is the common method to test the quality of optical components. ... Hartmann mask consists of 48 lenses. ...

Microsymposium 40, abstract 56, 2004 (A4 format) AUTOMATIC COMPILING OF HYPSOMETRIC MAP OF A PART OF THE 1 VENUSIAN SURFACE. ... The main principles applied in compiling the map such as the scale of the heights, types of prints and using of pictures of surface shall be apply in the compiling of the Hypsometric Map of Hemispheres of Venus in future. We consider that contours are the necessary features for hypsometric maps because allow to make measurement more accurate. ... Moscow., ...

... Oleg V. Verkhodanov . ... The last few years have changed our view on the evolution of galaxies: the most distant galaxies (i.e. systems having stellar population) have been found at redshift z=6.68 (Chen H.-W., Lanzetta, K. M., Pascarelle, S. 1999, Nature, 398 , 586) and radio galaxy at z=5.19 (van Breugel W., De Breuck C., Stanford S. A., Stern D., Rottgering H., Miley G. 1999. astro-ph/9904272 ). ... Redshifts and age of stellar systems of distant radio galaxies from multicolour photometry data. ...
