They are concerned with Attitude Control System of the spacecraft, satellite visibility from tracking stations, limits on the satellite autonomous operations during the orbit, and needs for auxiliary operations with the spacecraft. ... Among the operational constraints the most important one is the number of programmed slews per orbit, which determines the maximum number of radio sources to be observed during one orbit. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

. Intervals of available data are coded by blue color. To read availability charts user should know the descriptor ("name") of the KP subset of interest. Table annotations include also number of version for each subset. Plot resolution is exactly one pixel per hour. Data are considered as available if at least one data point is present during that hour.

This CGI -script calculates a day of week of the given date, Julian date of Greenwich noon JD and extracts from the database indices of solar activity: Wolf number for the day W , monthly W m and yealy means W y of Wolf number for month and year of the date. The prediction of Wolf number (which was made in 1998 and, hence, lost actuality) is also presented. The database uses solar activity data got from server of National Geophysical Data Center . ...

A Backward Sunspot and the New Solar Cycle . ... Credit Copyright: MDI , SOHO , ESA , NASA Explanation: Why is sunspot 905 backwards? Perhaps it is a key marker for the beginning of a new magnetic cycle on our Sun . Every 11 years, our Sun goes through a magnetic cycle , at the end of which its overall magnetic orientation is reversed. ... This sunspot, numbered 905, appears as the unusual white spot in the above magnetic image of the Sun taken with the SOHO spacecraft a few days ago. ...
