Following are instructions to build and install the programs in this distribution. Make sure that you have all necessary tools for building executables. ... The automatic build process expects a configuration file called Config.local . ... The configuration file specifies the directory in which to install the binaries, as well as control over the generation of debugging code and reference clock support. ... Cleans out object files, programs and temporary files. make distclean . ...

The CHIANTI database consists of 4 primary ASCII files for each ion in the database. contains the energy levels in cm^(-1) It includes both experimental data and theoretical values of the levels energies. ... Wavelengths are based on experimental level energies where available; wavelengths calculated from theoretical energies are less accurate and are given as negative values. References: %observed energy levels: Kelly, R.L., 1987, J.Phys.Chem.Ref.Data 16, Suppl. ...

... the dark tail just above the actual trap, which can be treated with wfixup or fixpix , . cases where real objects cross the bad column, such as the object just above 2-637 in Figure 5 , . ... The standard technique for removing the effects of traps (i.e., "bad columns") is to use the . ... c1h images. ... Note that trap 2-637 from Figure 1 and Figure 5 appears to be the only trap which leaks a small amount of charge in an "upstream" direction, thus we chose a more typical trap for this example.) ...

... Sources found in the local detection step (task eboxdetect ) at significance levels (column SIGMA of eboxdetect source list) exceeding a user-specifiable threshold (input parameter mlmin ) in the respective energy band are removed from the image using a suitable PSF and source brightness dependent cut-out radius (determined to be the radius at which each source contributes more than a user-specifiable number of counts/arcsec to the background; parameter scut ; default value: 0.01). ...

... 2000 . ... Abstract: I present the distribution of the brightest galaxies in the southern sky as obtained from the H I Parkes All-Sky Survey (HIPASS). ... A histogram of the systemic velocities of the brightest HIPASS galaxies is shown in Fig. ... It peaks, as expected, in the interval 800 to 2000 km/s. No bright galaxies were found with systemic velocities of less than -350 or more than 5500 km/s. Figure 2: Histogram of the H I systemic velocities of the brightest galaxies obtained from HIPASS. ...

... Up: Data Analysis and Processing Techniques . ... Also, a method for quality control of CCD observations is suggested. ... Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

... The removal of the bright sky background from your IR images is one of the key steps in the data reduction process. Once bad pixels have been removed from all the astronomical frames, the object frames must have the matching sky background images subtracted from them. ... The simplest sky subtraction is where you have separate sky and object frames taken a short time apart. ... The resulting sky subtracted images should be examined to make sure that sky subtraction has been properly achieved. ...
