... Radio telescope interferometers exhibit chromatic aberration effects. ... Reduction packages such as AIPS and AIPS++ will produce a beam pattern image for each frequency channel. This allows these packages to compute a spectral-line cube which has a pixel size (cellsize) independent of frequency. ... Because of this, Miriad produces cubes where the pixel size changes with frequency. ... The correct approach is to produce a cube in Miriad which does not have a variable pixel size. ...

A FORTRAN code which computes synthetic light and colour curves of active, spotted stars has been developed. The main feature of this code is its ability to model simultaneously the V light curve and the (V-R)_{c}, (V-I)_{c} and (V-K) colour data. It also uses new effective temperature-colour and Barnes-Evans-like calibrations, temperature and gravity-dependent limb-darkening coefficients and different effective surface gravities for the spotted and unspotted photosphere. ...

... In the first page of this chapter, Eddington computes an effective temperature of 3.18 K, but this has nothing to do with the 2.725 K blackbody spectrum of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) . Here is a quote of what Eddington actually said: . ... We shall first calculate the energy density of this radiation. ... It is clear that Eddington's model fits the optical data, but that Eddington did not anticipate either the CMB (red curve) or the interstellar dust (ISD, green curve). ...
