... We present a new Tcl/Tk based GUI interface tool which features plotting of curve and image data and allows for user input via return of regions or specific cursor positions. ... Curves and Images may then be combined to form a displayed Graph. ... With the development of several GUI based tools for High Energy Astrophysics at the HEASARC, we found a need for a interface tool that supports combined curve plotting and image display in a native Tcl/Tk environment. POW is our answer. ...

... The MIDAS system is built along lines which should allow easy integration of complex analysis algorithms as well as allowing greater flexibility in interactive use and in the creation of user specific procedures from the basic building blocks. ...

Our calculations show that although the Newtonian model works very well for almost all practical purposes for the well known showers during present epochs, there could be some exceptional combinations of orbital elements for which the general relativistic precession in argument of pericentre and its influence on nodal distances could become significantly pronounced and decisive for predicting any earth-meteor intersection. ...

... Generalized maximum entropy method and its application to antenna pattern reconstruction. In this paper the Generalized maximum entropy method and its application to the reconstruction of two-dimensional complex functions (namely, far-field antenna pattern distribution) from nonuniformly distributed samples are considered. ... It is shown that the Generalized maximum entropy method is sufficiently stable in the presence of errors. ...

For non-spherical isotropic particles, the classic variant of the RDG approximation does not include the anisotropy of the shape and hence does not give the correct Rayleigh limit, say, for small ellipsoids. ... We call this variant a modified RDG approximation (MRDG). ... First, the MRDG leads to the correct Rayleigh limit. ... The second approach to generalization of the RDG is connected with the use of the Born iterations for the scattering integral equation [ 95 , 124 , 132 , 264 ]. ...

In general, Photoshop runs best with the most memory it can get. ... Photoshop prefers just over 3mb of RAM plus three times the size of the file you intend to work with (assuming it is an RGB image). ... Essentially, Photoshop's virtual memory expands the available memory to the application by moving idle images to the hard drive. ... If you switch between images, Photoshop will have to access the hard drive, load the image into RAM, and put the old image onto the disk. ...
