... Consequently, it is inappropriate to expand and in ordinary spherical harmonics. The proper expansion expresses both and simultaneously in terms of a particular order of generalized spherical harmonics. ... Generalized spherical harmonics start at , and for each , . ... Generalized spherical harmonics obey a sum rule analogous to a familiar one for ordinary spherical harmonics, but it includes an explicit phase factor which depends on the orientation of the two lines of sight. ...

An Ancient Universe: How Astronomers Know the Vast Scale of Cosmic Time . THE CHANGING UNIVERSE: EVOLUTION HAPPENS! . b) Changes in Stars . One of the great discoveries of modern science is that stars (like people) live only a measurable life-time and then die. Although the lives of the stars are enormously longer than the span of a human life, we can learn about the life story of the stars by studying them at many different stages in their life cycle, from birth to death. ...

... Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Interferometric studies of the mass-loss process from cool evolved stars . ... Observing with ESO Telescopes . ... Cool evolved stars of different inital masses and thus luminosities loose considerable amounts of processed material and dust into the interstellar medium. ... However, the detailed mass-loss process is surprisingly little understood for most of these sources. ... Return to list of thesis topics . ...

... To be read in conjunction with Section 4.11 of the WFPC2 Instrument Handbook , -Version 4.0. ... 1 The second study found evidence that CTE loss for faint stars has increased with time (Whitmore, 1998). The primary observational consequence of CTE loss is that a point source at the top of the chip appears to be fainter than if observed at the bottom of the chip, due to the loss of electrons as the star is read out down the chip (see Figure 1 ). ...

Conclusions: In this article, we have presented a tutorial description of the multispectral acquisition of images from a signal processing point of view. ... I wonder if there?s literature in astronomy matching this tutorial from which we may expand and improve current astronomical photometry processes by adopting strategies developed by more populated signal/image processing engineers and statisticians. ...

... In order to disentangle the effects of different climate variables on tree-ring growth rates of different species, and to explore the possibility that more than one species could improve the accuracy of the reconstructions of climate using tree rings, a methodical study of trees in close proximity to the Armagh Observatory climate station was initiated together with Ana Maria Garc?a Su?rez, and continued as part of the latter's PhD thesis with John Butler and Professor Mike Baillie (QUB). ...

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. ...
