Next: Star Formation Rate and Up: No Title Previous: Calculation of Evolutionary Tracks . To start calculations, we choose the distributions of the initial binary parameters: the mass of the primary ZAMS component, , binary mass ratio, , orbital separation a . ... whereas the mass ratio distribution is not. ... The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

Subject: Some useful data about gains, NFs compression points of Eddies box components . ... Gain: ~ 21 dB . ... 1 dB compression: + 6 dBm . ... 1dB compression point for this system is ~ +15 dBm. For a clean(i.e., very linear) signal, we recommend staying 10 dB or more below the 1dB compression point, putting the "peak linear power" at +5 dBm. ... Assuming an LNA + Mixer gain of ~ 35 dB and with + 8 dBm mixer compression point, any input - 27dBm will begin to saturate the mixer. ...

... We present a computer program for modelling energy flux distribution and light curves of eclipsing binaries from far ultraviolet to infrared regions. The Roche model is assumed. Proximity effects of components (reflection of radiation and surface gravity darkening) are taken into account. ...

... In this section, we develop a physical model of the secondary as a disk that is centrifugally supported in the radial direction and hydrostatically supported in the vertical direction. We assume that the disk is vertically isothermal and well mixed. ... where is the mean molecular mass of the gas, is the orbital period at the outer edge of the disk in years, and all of the mass of the secondary has been assumed to be concentrated near its center, so the Keplerian approximation is valid. ...

Next: Prior Models Up: Prior Models and the Previous: Bayesian Paradigm . The observed image differs from the true brightness distribution in having been blurred and encountering statistical noise in the recording process. ... Let us describe the noise models. ... This model can be approximated, at least for high brightness values, by the Gaussian distribution . ... The noise model we will use in this paper is Poissonian; see Molina and Ripley (1989) for the use of robust Gaussian noise models. ...
