... The operators will be explained as they are used. The general notion to keep in mind is that any combination of these operators results in a 2- D affine coordinate transformation in the TF plane, which may be represented using the homogeneous coordinates often used in computer graphicsfoley. ... S _t_c,f_c = g_t_c,f_c,(_t) | ... We denote a time shift to the position , with an operator that has a multiplicative law of composition : (Table 1). ... Note that these two operators do not commute. ...

... We describe a new library (AST) which provides a flexible high-level programming interface for handling world coordinate systems in astronomy and for producing graphical output. ... Relationships between coordinate systems are represented within AST by objects called Mappings. ... While Mappings represent the relationships between coordinate systems, the coordinate systems themselves are represented by objects called Frames. ... Like all objects, a Frame also provides methods. ...

... Representing Coordinate Systems (Frames) While Mappings represent the relationships between coordinate systems, the coordinate systems themselves are represented by objects called Frames. ... A Plot's base Frame corresponds with the native coordinates of the underlying graphics system. Plotting operations are specified, using AST Plot methods, in physical coordinates which correspond with the Plot's current Frame (typically this might be a celestial coordinate system). ...

XMM-Newton Science Analysis System . ... include changes in version 3.6.5 etc . Module name: coordinate . ... This module contains subroutines to perform a variety of coordinate transformations. Where possible the cal coordinate-transformation routines are used. The present subroutines have been designed to act as wrappers-of-convenience for one or more of the cal routines rather than to supplant them. ... XMM-Newton SOC/SSC -- 2007-07-08 ...

Stellar Clusters are very useful laboratories for empirically studying stellar evolution. ... All cluster stars are at the same distance . All cluster stars have the same physical age . ... CM diagram Young Cluster In this case we see the Main Sequence fully represented. The blue dots represent massive stars with short main sequence lifetimes. ... Thus, identifying the most massive star which is still on the main sequence is an effective means of determining the age of a stellar cluster. ...

... The colors indicate the relative motions of galaxies with accurately measured distances, with shades of green and blue indicating motions toward us and shades of yellow to red indicating motions away from us. Our nearest neighbors have only small relative motions (represented by yellows and greens), as seen best in the exploded view of the right panel. We, along with all these nearest
