Static Fourier spectrometers are often used for spectral measurements of the ionosphere emissions. There are two main advantages of Fourier spectrometers (FS) - large geometric factor and high spectral resolution; these parameters are two orders better than for grating spectral instruments. ... In scanning Fourier spectrometer optical and electric modulation of signal is used to avoid this problem, for static Fourier spectrometer there are no such ways. ...

... All the optical elements are mounted in a cryostat aimed at keeping components at a temperature of about 80 K. The focal plane masks (field stops or slits) are mounted on a wheel. ... The collimator is an achromatic doublet lens, which images the entrance pupil of the TNG and provides an almost parallel beam (F-number about 2000) at the pupil plane, where Lyot stops can be placed. Right after the pupil plane, two close wheels mount filters and grisms. ...

The central regions of our galaxy, the Milky Way, seen in X-rays by ESA s XMM-Newton X-ray observatory. This image portrays powerful remnants of dead stars and their mighty action on the surrounding gas, showing us an unprecedented view of the Milky Way's energetic core. It was put together in a new study by compiling all observations of this region that were performed with XMM-Newton, adding up to over one month of monitoring in total. ... ESA/XMM-Newton/G.

In accreting binary neutron star systems matter is channelled by the strong magnetic field to the poles of the neutron star. The accreted matter accumulates at the poles to form accretion mounds. Pressure from the confined matter can significantly distort the local magnetic field structure, affecting the X-ray observations and long term evolution of the magnetic field. ...

... These are plugged into plug-plate holes drilled at the predicted locations of suitable guide stars in the field of view. ... In particular, any departure from the ideal elastic curve from the tubing anchor point to the hole appears to affect the rotation angle of the plug. ... No structure of the residual plug angle appeared significant when these data were examined in 3-D. Figure 3: The plug rotation angle has a standard deviation of 54њ (201њ peak-valley). ... How large can the rotation error be? ...
