A single value for the normalization (i.e., fixed normalization) will force the program to use that value. ...

... A frequently used procedure, alternative to the correction for the chromatic response, is to normalise the continuum to unity by dividing the observed spectrum by a smooth approximation of its continuum. This approximation can be obtained either interactively with the graphic cursor, or from a table (command NORMALIZE/SPECTRUM ) or by dividing the raw data by itself after filtering or smoothing. Median filtering and running average algorithms are well suited for this purpose (command FILTER ). ...

Following the installation of a new delivery of WFPC2 flat fields to the archive and pipeline databases, it has been discovered that a small number of these flat fields were incorrectly normalized. ... Note that when the science images above, or any science image, are retrieved from the HST archive using OTFR (On The Fly Reprocessing), the proper calibration files, including the correctly normalized flats listed above, will be applied to the data. ...

... The units of N(S) are counts/Jy/steradian. The user also specifies N0, which is a cosmological normalization, usually a power law of S. This function is input via a power law and/or polynomial. ... Key: out Confusion noise (sigma) image (1/2 size of beam image) in Jy Key: flux 3 numbers (Jy). flux(1) and flux(2) define the range of flux densities for which the confusion noise is calculated. flux(3) is the break point below which the power law is used, and above which the polynomial is used. ...

As a result, a common magnitude scale (contour lines on the maps above, or color scale on Fig.1) will poorly display the short-duration events in a signal. Normalizing each line of the map (fixed duration) so it has unit variance (in effect dividing the energy map by the mean energy spectrum) at each duration restores more details of small-scale activity (Fig. ...

Next: Caverns in Binary Systems Up: Ejectors in Massive Binary Previous: The Number of Ejectors . In the very first years after the discovery of radiopulsars, it became clear that for some reason they avoid forming binary systems. ... Illarionov and Sunyaev (1975)[ 76 ] noted the fact that coherent radiowaves with a wavelength longer than 75 cm, which make it possible to observe most of the radiopulsars, are absorbed effectively in the stellar wind of a normal star. ...

A determination of the surface gravity and an abundance analysis of helium in a sample of 17 He-rich and 5 normal, reference stars is presented. ... The helium abundances derived from the models used are very close to 0.1 for normal, reference stars are larger for the others, clearly indicating the He-rich phenomenon in them. NLTE effects, errors on the microturbulence value or on the surface gravity do not influence the estimated helium abundances. ...

... Mars to Appear Normal this August . ... October is the best month to see Mars this year. ... As Earth catches up to Mars in their respective orbits around the Sun, Mars will keep rising earlier in the night. On 2005 October 30, Earth will have caught up to Mars and the planets will be the nearest to each other in their orbits -- this time around. On October 30, Mars will be nearly opposite to the Sun, rise at sunset, set at sunrise, and appear highest and brightest around midnight. ...

... The substepping technique is used for the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) imaging to cope with the problem of undersampling and to improve resolution. ... For the HST, undersampling means that the size of the pixel in a camera is larger than the critical value determined by the optics of the telescope, and aliasing takes place. ... Sampling is an operation to integrate a ( x ) within a pixel, and to assign the result to this pixel (Figure 1 A). ... Figure 1: Substepping ( N =2) and normal sampling. ...

Fringe parameters are the complex visibility, the squared visibility amplitude, and the total count rate. These can be computed from bincounts using the functions fringevis , fringevissq , and fringenphot . v=fringevis(bincounts(1,*,*,*)) . ... Instead of computing the modulus of the complex visibility, we use a different estimator for the squared amplitude. ... I have verified with simulated fringe frames that this procedure results in the correct squared visibility amplitudes. ...
