... The spectrograph is designed for detailed studies of extended objects - galaxies and HII regions with a moderate spectral resolution. ... The updated Universal Astronomical Grating Spectrograph (UAGS, Carl Zeiss Jena) with a fast Schmidt camera is a base of the Long Slit Spectrograph (LSS). A cryostated Charge Coupled Device (CCD) detector is built inside the Schmidt camera. ... It was realized in the Laboratory of Spectroscopy and Photometry of Extragalactic Objects of SAO RAS. ...

Plug plate holes for guide stars are identical to those for science FO . ... FOV for each of 9 guide stars is 7.4 arcsec dia. (0.45 mm FO, Sumitomo IGN-05/10) . ... Selected guide stars must have no neighbor stars within TBD (5 arcsec) radius that have a brightness within TBD (5 mag.) of guide stars . ...

... SFIT is a general-purpose code designed to optimize theoretical stellar spectra to an observed spectrum. ... While the programme expects input from "stdio", it is more natural to save commands in a file (eg "sfit_input") and run the code simply by . ... If the spectra to be fitted have a filename "star_spectrum", then the best fit spectrum will be written out, together with the renormalized input spectrum, to a file called "star_spectrum.fit". ... sets up model spectrum grid (and for 2nd star) . ...

... They include: 4 dither patterns, 4 chop patterns, and 3 dither-chop patterns. For each of these, the observer will be able to specify, during the Phase II Proposal submission, the total number of positions desired (2 to 40), the dither size (0 to 40 arcsecs), the chop size (0 to 1800 arcsecs), and the orientation of the pattern on the sky. ... In addition, the figure number where the pattern is graphically shown is given in column 5 of Table 10.1 . ... Figure 10.3 . ... 0.0 - 1800.0 . ...

... In spite of the good potential possibilities, some of the station "Dnepr" design characteristics did not allow us to apply the usual special IS radar measurement methods. ... Thus for IS signal measurements at the "Dnepr" station, we have developed special methods for recording and processing IS signals in order to determine plasma ionospheric parameters. ... Equations (4-5) from the basis for data post processing to obtain ionosphere parameters. ...

... Bakhshiyan . ... MV- and E-optimal design of experiments: theory and simplex algorithms . ... A mathematical analogy between a L-and MV-optimal experiments design and an ideal linear correction of system parameters is established, Optimality conditions are derived on the basis of this analogy and effective algorithms for solving these problems are designed. ... The E-optimal problem is reduced to the generalized linear programming problem with M+1 by constraints, where M=m (m+1) /2. ...
