... Previous: Generalized Linear Multi-Frequency Imaging in VLBI . ... At Astronomical Observatory of Valencia University (OAUV), CCD observations of asteroids and big planets satellites are obtained since 2001 with a big format camera and several telescopes. ... Software for comparison of single and overlapped CCD fields obtained at different epochs has been developed. ... After images measurement in CCD field, catalogue stars are identified and adjusted with images. ...

... Telescope concept . ... The Submillimetron Project is dedicated to astronomical studies at the submillimeter and far infrared wavelengths using a cryogenic telescope located on the Russian segment of the International Space Station (ISS). The Astro Space Center of the Lebedev Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences is responsible for developing the Submillimetron Project. ... Currently, the Astro Space Center is carrying out a pre-Project study under contract with the Russian Space Agency. ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

Options for Supporting Single-dish Observations with the Tidbinbilla 34 m Beam Wave-Guide Antenna DSS-34. ... Background For many years NASA have been allocating observing time on the 34 m antenna DSS45 as well as the 70m for Host Country use. ... Earlier this year a co-axial 8.4 and 32 GHz system was installed on DSS-34. ... DSS-34. ... The additional observing support required for DSS-34 could come either through an expansion of the DA system or by basing another ATNF employee in Canberra. ...
