Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems VII ASP Conference Series, Vol. ... Data Processing 1.1. ... Select Zero Order Sources/Find Observed Target In order to find where the dispersed photons lie, the center of the zero order source position on the sky must be determined, since this is the origin of the spectral coordinates. ... For the HETG grating data, the relevant parts for each source are: zero order, MEG photons, HEG photons, and background photons. ...

... A correlation between metal abundance and orbital elements (the eccentricity and angular momentum) has been found for three semples of disk stars of our Galaxy with abundance derived from detailed analysis. The correlation indicates that metal abundance in the Galaxy kept increasing after the birth of old disk stars and that the Galaxy kept collapsing during the formation of its disk subsystems. ...

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. ...
