Extracting spectra from a large number of NICMOS grism images requires a convenient interactive tool which allows a user to manipulate direct/grism image pairs. ... NICMOSlook and Calnic-C are two programs that were designed to take advantage of the fact that the NICMOS grism mode typically consists of taking both a direct and a grism image. ...

... Animation . Arrow . ... I created the first animation by running Script-Fu / Animators / Fire on the head of an arrow. ... I merged the animation with the background image, and specified a final X offset of -128 (the background is 128 pixels wide). This results in an animation with a nice moving background. Note that you can also use a background that is wider than the image, as long as you specify the width of the background for the final X offset if you want the final animation to loop. ...

... Research . Projects . ... The name of the project APEX is a reduction from words " Active Plasma Experiments " . The core of the project are active experiments with injection of electron and (or) plasma beams from a board of the satellite with simultaneous registration of the phenomena, produced by interaction of injected beam with background plasma. ... Active experiments utilise modulated electron beam accelerator and source of modulated xenon plasma beam on the main spacecraft APEX. ...

... For eight samples of main-sequence disk stars, the metallicity indices 0.6 , R-1 (U-V), m1 ( ) have been calculated. The indices 0.6 and (U-B) have been calibrated to the metal abundance [Fe/H] for the spectral types F, G and K separately. ... It is found that the UBV and RI data for F- and K-dwarfs imply that the metallicity of the Sun coincides with that found for the Hyades, whereas the G-dwarfs give the well known smaller metallicity of the Sun with respect to the Hyades. ...
