Next: Reduction procedure Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Strategy . Standard stars can be included in the extinction solution, if one is careful. The problem is that there are usually appreciable ``conformity errors'' due to mismatch between the instrumental and the standard passbands [ 16 ]. ... Thus, it is wrong to assume that the transformation between the instrumental system and the standard system is exact, even if there were no measurement error in either system [ 1 ]. ...

GIPSY programs do not interact with the user directly, but do this through the GIPSY user interface, Hermes . If for instance a program needs some input from the user, it will send a request to Hermes which will then prompt the user for the required parameters. ... If a program wants to inform the user that the integrated flux density of a source is x Janskys, it will not do this with an ordinary WRITE statement, but via a library routine which sends a request to Hermes. ...

... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 Estimation of masses of some minor planets from observations of perturbed bodies O. M. Kochetova Institute of Applied Astronomy, St. Petersburg, Russia The most straightforward method of mass determination of minor planets is the dynamical one which uses the gravitational perturbations produced by minor planet in the motion of other bodies. ... The values of the masses of minor planets (15), (29) and (65) appear to be rather close in both papers. ...

... 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. ...

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 . ...

PENTICTON SOLAR RADIO FLUX VALUES (from SGD Explanation of Data Reports) Daily Solar Flux Values - Penticton -- Daily measurements of the integrated emission from the solar disc at 2800MHz (10.7cm wavelength) have been made by the National Research Council of Canada since 1947. ... The data are tabulated in two forms: the "observed flux" (S), and the "adjusted flux" (Sa). ... The "observed flux" values are useful in ionospheric physics and other terrestrial consequences of solar activity. ...

This widget allows you to offset the telescope. ... Offset type : one of "Object Arc", "Object Arc XY" or "Boresight". ... This is motion on the sky or instrument, so don't worry about cos(dec). ... If you want to move that point (e.g. center your object along a different bit of the slit), then use a boresight offset. ... Note that a +X object xy offset will move the sky in the -X direction on the focal plane, because you are centering something in the +X direction on the boresight. ...
