... We will consider the rms, (K), for observations with a receiver of system temperature, T , frequency resolution, per polarization, and total integration time per observing cycle, . ... For ``in-band'' frequency switching, the line under investigation is always in the observing band. ... Position Switching or ``Out-of-Band'' Frequency Switching: Here the line is only observed for one half of the time, with noise being present all of the time. ...

We present a database of UV-to-FIR data of 83 nearby starburst galaxies. ... The NIR data are from new observations obtained at the NASA/IRTF and the Mount Laguna Observatory, combined with the published results from observations at the Kitt Peak National Observatory. ... In conjunction with IRAS and ISO FIR flux densities, all these data form a set of observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of the nuclear regions of nearby starburst galaxies. ...

Next: Radial velocity of the Up: Optical spectrum of IRAS04296 Previous: Observations and spectra reduction . ... However, molecular emission features are only very rarely observed in the optical spectra of PPNe. ... On the other hand, it is well known that cometary nuclei spectra show prominent Swan band emission. In both spectra of IRAS04296 we have discovered strong emission in the (0;0) and (0;1) bands of the Swan system of the molecule. ... Now consider the case of IRAS04296. ...

... The MMT optical spectra of SBS 0335-052W were obtained on 1996 January 19 with the Red Channel of the MMT Spectrograph. ... The linear scale is 1 = 263 pc at the distance to SBS 0335-052W of 54.1 Mpc. ... In Table 1, the observed line intensities and intensities corrected for interstellar extinction for SBS 0335-052W are shown along with extinction coefficient C (H ), observed flux of the H emission line, the equivalent width EW (H ) and equivalent width of absorption Balmer hydrogen lines EW (abs)....

Next: Identifications and Efficiency Up: THE DEEP X-RAY RADIO Previous: Source Classification . ... For some sources which did not have NVSS positions before the time of optical observations, arcsecond positions from the Texas survey (Douglas et al. 1996) and NED (typically based on VLA data) were used. ... All X-ray/radio sources without counterparts on the survey plates were imaged at either the KPNO 0.9m or the CTIO 0.9m telescopes. ... Previously Identified Sources . Sample Properties . ...

... 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. ...

Pulkovo NEO Page . ... NEA Accuracy Estimation . ... The estimation of accuracy of the current CCD observations of asteroids and comets is constantly performed at Pulkovo Observatory. ... The (O-C) values, so called "Observed" minus "Calculated" positions, characterize numerically the observations of any observatory, both professional and amateur, during a short period (one or several close nights). ... So the (O-C) values for these objects nearly entirely define the errors of observations. ...
