... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

... The TESIS is a set of solar imaging instruments developed by the Lebedev Physical Institute of the Russian Academy of Science, and launched aboard the Russian spacecraft CORONAS-PHOTON on January 30, 2009. The main goal of the TESIS is to provide complex observations of solar active phenomena from the transition region to the inner and outer solar corona with high spatial, spectral and temporal resolution in the EUV and Soft X-ray spectral bands. ... Solar activity hits a new low . ...

... The zeta function of the classical monodromy transformation of the germ $f$ is a topological invariant of it. Let us consider a parametrization (uniformization) of the curve $(C,0)$. The order of a function on $(C,0)$ as a function in the uniformization parameter defines a decreasing filtration on the ring of functions on the curve singularity. It appears that the Poincare series of this filtration (considered as a rational function) coincides with the zeta function mentioned above. ...
