Aims: We aim for an understanding of the morphological and spectral properties of the supernova remnant RCW~86 and for insights into the production mechanism leading to the RCW~86 very high-energy gamma-ray emission. ... Studies of the morphological correlation between the 0.5-1~keV X-ray band, the 2-5~keV X-ray band, radio, and gamma-ray emissions have been performed as well as broadband modeling of the spectral energy distribution with two different emission models. ...

Detector on-chip integration (DIT): seconds. to your chosen value - a separate page gives recommended values to use for DIT - for modes 1 and 2 below you may wish to start with the maximum recommended values as these will minimize the effect of read noise (a total object exposure of Y secs with DIT=X secs will produce Y/X lots of read noise) and give you a lower limit on the time needed. ...

METAR Wishlist Following is a list of items that I'd like to add to METAR or that others have requested. ... It'd be nice to have a lot of METARs which encompass various weather condition which we can test against. ... Sites around the world use similar (but slightly different) formats for their METARs. There is always a METAR format the parser will fail on. Calculate Heat Index and/or Wind Chill Both would be fairly easy to do, provided you get the formulas correct. ...
