... The remote planet Pluto and its moon Charon orbit the Sun at a mean distance of almost 6,000 million kilometres, or nearly fourty times farther out than the Earth. During a recent investigation by an international group of astronomers [1], the best picture ever of Pluto and Charon [2] was secured with the European Space Agency's Faint Object Camera at the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). ... The new HST image was taken when Charon was near its maximum elongation from Pluto (0.9 arcseconds). ...

Next: Extraction of Information Up: Image Manipulations Previous: Transformations . ... Basically, it is not possible to retrieve information on features with frequencies higher than the Nyquist frequency (see Equation ). Several different techniques are used depending on the data (see Wells 1980 for a general discussion of the methods). ... Another group of image restoration algorithms use iterative methods to obtain a solution which is consistent with the data. ...

... The value of tile-size, NW , may be thought of as a sixth coordinate axis in the chirplet transform parameter space - TF-area. Including this sixth coordinate axis provides us with a hierarchical (multi-resolution) CCT. ... Various 2- D slices through the multiresolution CCT may correspond to useful tilings of the TF plane with true parallelograms (true to the extent that the DPSS define a truly rectangular region in the TF plane). ...

Next: Rotation Periods of ZAMS stars Previous: T Tauri Stars . ... The first attempts to directly measure periodic modulation of T Tauri stars occurred in the early 1980s. Rydgren & Vrba (1983) observed four PMS stars using photoelectric photometry over a period of seven consecutive photometric nights. ... Because the spot lifetime is much longer than the rotational period, the observed effect will be a modulation of the light from the star synchronously with the rotation period. ...

... In combining the data, it is assumed that the low resolution image better represents the short spacing data, whereas the high resolution best represents the fine structure. ... Key: out The output image. ... Key: factor The flux calibration factor. ... In practise, the calibration may not be perfect, and an extra calibration factor will be required to align the flux scales. "factor" gives the factor to scale the low resolution image to put it on the same flux scale as the high resolution image. ...

... Let us first find out which way -- rise in spectral resolution with some loss in the S/N ratio or increase in the S/N ratio with a fixed spectral resolution -- is better for the purpose of reduction of equivalent width determination errors. ... N -- number of counts for 1 ? ... line equivalent width, . ... Thus if the spectral resolution is managed to be increased (i.e. to decrease )without loss in the number of counts falling at 1 ?, the equivalent width measurement error is then proportional to . ...

High resolution observations at different heights in the solar atmosphere have emphasized that there is no such thing as a "quiet" Sun (e.g. Schrijver et al., ... This, and the temporal coincidence of other signatures, supports the idea that microflares are indeed just miniature flares, but that one needs a very high resolution in order to observe them (Cauzzi et al., 2003, in preparation) . ...
