Each row contains at 0h of Time Dynamical Terrestrial of specified date in system of mean equator and ecliptic J2000.0 the ecliptic osculating elements of heliocentric orbit: inclination of orbital plane (degrees), longitude of ascending node (degrees), argument of perigelion (degrees), semimajor axis (astronomical units), mean motion (degrees per day), eccentricity (dimensionless), mean anomaly (degrees).

... Up: Iraf Packages . ... IRAF Group, NOAO 1 , PO Box 26732, Tucson, AZ 85726 . This paper describes a new IRAF spectroscopy exposure time calculator. ... SPTIME takes an input source spectrum, either a reference blackbody, power law, or a user spectrum, a background ``sky'', observing parameters such as exposure time, central wavelength, seeing, airmass, and moon phase, instrument parameters such as aperture sizes and detector binning, a description of the spectrograph, and desired output. ...

Next: MARK5 and EVLBI Up: Recording Systems. ... These are specified in the SCHED station catalog with the paramters CONTROL , DAR , RECORDER and DISK . The first element is the control system -- what software (and hardware) is used to control the recording system. The options that SCHED can handle for wide band VLBI observations are VLBA and VEX. ... The new control system will initially just control the new data aquisition system and recorder. ...
