... If finddead =Y, embadpixfind looks for too dark pixels, rows and columns too. ... The maxratio parameter avoids detecting 'grey' pixels, rows or columns on observations with high statistics. Whatever findbright and finddead , dark and bright columns and rows are always searched for together in order of decreasing significance (either positive or negative). This avoids finding spurious bright columns/rows next to very dark ones, and vice-versa. ...

... MATERIAL: astronomical data visualization software like ds9 , IRAF, and the two galaxy images in the V-band and I-band . ... You received images in the V and I-band of an unknown, partially resolved Milky Way dwarf satellite galaxy. Your task is to generate a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of this stellar system, find out what kind of stellar population it is made of (old, young?) and estimate its distance from the sun using well-known features identified in the CMD. ...

SPECTRAL FEATURES OF THE AVALANCHE DEPOSITS IN LUNAR CRATER REINER. ... Crater Reiner. ... 5 Immature soils (coded in green, box 3) occupy most areas of the inner wall slopes of the crater. ... Distribution of the immature soils shown in Fig. 5 correlates with distribution of the bright materials on the wall slope of the crater as it is seen in Fig. ... The presence of very immature soils on the inner wall slopes and on the central peak of the crater Reiner suggests recent intensive slope processes. ...

... It is found that the correlation coefficients between these two parameters calculated separately inside and outside the sunspot formation zone ±30 have cyclic variation and occur in anti-phase. This suggests different mechanisms of formation of the corona in the fields of small, medium, and large scales. ... The relationship between the coronal green line brightness (CGLB) and the magnetic field strength (MFS) has been investigated by constructing the corresponding synoptic maps for the 1977-2001. ...

Comment on J0513-2159 . Our image shows an extension to about 5 mas SE from the brightest feature. The EVN 8 GHz image by Dallacasa et al. (1998), with about five times larger resolution, shows an extension from the brightest feature roughly opposite to our direction. As noted by Dallacasa et al. (1998), the structure detected has a highly inverted spectrum, which, together with the reported variability in the source, could explain the structural disagreement. ...

... Colors of Sunlight . ... Isaac Newton showed that not only can a triangular prism separate a beam of sunlight into rainbow colors (that had already been known), but also that, when a second prism brings the different colors together again, white light is once more obtained. Therefore white light is a combination of all the rainbow colors, and the prism separates its colors because the angle by which a beam of light is bent, when it enters glass, differs from one color to the next. ...
