SHORT DESCRIPTIONS OF INSTRUMENTS . ... Particle detector RIEP-2802 was developed and built in Russia. ... The combined Soviet-French ONCH-TBF onboard instrument had in memory modes the data only from several filter-banks in the range from 10 Hz to 16 kHz (while in the real-time telemetry modes, the measurements included 5-component wave-form data in the range 10 Hz - 1.5 kHz for 3 magnetic and 2 electric field components, or a wide-band mode in the range 10 Hz - 15 kHz, and several filter banks). ...

... We are developing the following problems: a) combine optical and microwave technic to the indication of non-linear surface waves and wave breaking field; b) modelling of microwave propagation in a multiphase air-water interface; c) obtain quantitative dependencies of microwave radiation on geometry and statistics of wave breaking field in ocean surface; d) monitoring of ocean surface states using optical amd microwave airspace data sets. ... Important issue is spray and underwater bubbles. ...

Because of your knowledge of physics and interest in the environment, you have gotten a summer job with an organisation which wants to orbit a satellite to monitor the amount of chlorine ions in the upper atmosphere over Australia. It has been determined that the satellite should collect samples at a height of 100 km above the Earth's surface. Unfortunately, at that height air resistance would make the amount of time the satellite would stay in orbit too short to be useful. ...

... For reducing data from ESO instrumentation it is assumed that the FITS headers conform the standards set by the document ``ESO Archive, Data Interface Requirements''. ... As an example, in the ESO case the exposure type is stored in the ESO hierarchical FITS keyword `HIERARCH ESO GEN EXPO TYPE'. ... To fill the CCD keywords with the telescope and instrument setup parameters, like name of the telescope, CCD used, read-out noise, frame size, etc. the command LOAD/CCD can be used. ...

Programs to generate color spectra ================================== These programs were developed to produce realistic color spectra from digital data. ... The distribution here contains the original source code for colorspec and solar in C, and a version of solar written in Fortran. ... It will produce a color spectrum of any digital spectrum. ... The 800x50 image solarflux.ppm was generated by colorspec and the file fluxatlas.dat, a reformatted NSO Solar Flux Atlas in the data directory. ...
