... The exact directions of the offsets are parallel to the rows and columns of the CCD on which the aperture is specified. ... It is often useful to explicitly specify the desired rotation of the WFPC2 field-of-view on the sky. ... Figure 7.8 shows the CCD orientation and aperture locations relative to the U3 axis. ... Obtain the Position Angle (PA) of the source axis on the sky, measured in the standard way, North through East. ... desired source angle in field-of-view measured CW from +U3 axis) . ...

Next: Catalog Construction Up: Observations and Analysis Previous: Source Detections . ... It was assumed that the highest signal gives the most likely position of the source. ... Comparing the summed map with the maps from the individual energy ranges, the one which produced the smallest error box was chosen to represent the source position, as long as was greater than 4, a level chosen to reflect a reasonable degree of confidence in the detection. ...

Since the 1980s VLBI observations at two frequencies, 8.4 (X-band) and 2.3 GHz (S-band) have been used to locate the positions of compact radio sources with unprecedented accuracy. ... Observations of selected strong compact extragalactic radio sources, using this now mature technique, have been used to define and maintain a radio reference frame with sub-milli-arcsecond (mas) precision. ... Additionally, it will provide more reference sources for phase referencing VLBI observations. ... References . ...

... The ODFs are generated with scisim-2.1. 1.1 scisimsimple This test ODF contains one X-ray source (1 keV, broadened with a 20 eV Gaussian), and several optical sources. The ODF was generated using the default con guration modes for all of the XMM instruments as provided by SciSim. 1.2 scisimquad This test ODF is an observation of four point sources with an incident angle of 0.05 degrees and positioned in a square. ... All instruments are in the default con guration mode as provided by SciSim. ...
