Describes how spatial region boundaries are handled. The golden rule for spatial region filtering was first enunciated by Leon VanSpeybroeck in 1986: . ... With this in mind, the rules for determining whether a boundary image pixel or table row are assigned to a region are defined below. For image filtering, pixels whose center is inside the boundary are included. ... That is, an row is inside the boundary without regard to its integerized pixel value. ...

... rgsregions defines and constructs the various RGS event-selection regions, and adds them to the source list (see rgssources ). ... Image regions and the background region refer to the plane of dispersion versus cross-dispersion ( image plane ) and select events based on their spatial coordinates. ... The order regions refer to the plane of dispersion versus calibrated pulse-height ( energy plane ) and select events from a specific astrophysical source within a particular reflection order. ...

... The MMT optical spectra of SBS 0335-052W were obtained on 1996 January 19 with the Red Channel of the MMT Spectrograph. ... The linear scale is 1 = 263 pc at the distance to SBS 0335-052W of 54.1 Mpc. ... In Table 1, the observed line intensities and intensities corrected for interstellar extinction for SBS 0335-052W are shown along with extinction coefficient C (H ), observed flux of the H emission line, the equivalent width EW (H ) and equivalent width of absorption Balmer hydrogen lines EW (abs)....

... We report on our ongoing project ``Infrared Study of HII Regions Associated with Small Clouds.' ... These IR data, combined with optical imaging (which will be obtained from the IAC-80 telescope), IRAS survey maps, and existing CO observations of the associated clouds, will allow us to undertake a detailed investigation of the gas-to-dust mass ratio, initial mass function and the star-formation efficiency in these complexes. ... CHECKPSF: check the PSF (Point Spread Function) model, . ...

Here is a description of the Filter/Driver Pack Plus release from Aldus. ... The Macintosh Filter/Driver Pack Plus includes several new and updated filters, including import filters for Microsoft Works 3.0 and MacWrite Pro files, as well as the most recent LaserWriter driver, version 8.1.1. ... The Filter/Driver Pack Plus also includes a patcher utility which will update PageMaker 5.0 to version 5.0a. This patcher corrects a handful of reported customer problems. ...

At Arecibo we have a variety of optical instruments that we use to study terrestrial airglow emissions. ... As a complement to the airglow instrumentation we also maintain a set of optical instruments, called lidars, used for "active" remote sensing of the atmosphere. That is, we generate our own source signal using lasers and measure the characteristics of the light scattered back from the atmosphere. ... An operations manual for the Optical Laboratories is currently under major revision. ...

... The "red leaks" in the UV filters are shown in Figure 3.10 for F122M, F160BW (the new Wood's filter), F170W, F185W F218W F255W, F300W, and F336W. The presence of significant red leaks in the UV filters, together with the much greater sensitivity and wavelength coverage in the red part of the spectrum, makes calibration of UV observations difficult. Table 3.13 shows red leak estimates as a percentage of the total detected flux from de-reddened stellar sources, ordered by spectral type. ...

... User Guide ] Task: ellint Purpose: Integrate a Miriad image in elliptical annuli. ... The integration is done separately for each image plane in the region included. ... They are the outer radius (arcsec) of the annulus; number of pixels in the annulus; the average (median) in the annulus; the rms of the annulus; the sum in the annulus normalized by the volume of the primary beam (if there is one); the cumulative sum for all annuli so far. Key: in Input image name. xyz images only. No default. ...
