The central velocity dispersion represents the internal motions of the stars along a column crossing the center of a galaxy or star cluster. ... The catalogue of collected velocity dispersions may be accessed in HyperLeda. vdis is the velocity dispersion given in km/s. The velocity dispersion gives to some approximation the scale for the specific kinetic energy contained in in un-ordered motions and combined with the velocity of rotation it may give an estimate of the specific kinetic energy. ...

The current set of keyword-value pairs of a task can be monitored by typing ESC K while the name of the task is present in the User Command Area. This causes (part of) the Common Output Area to be overlaid with a display containing the current user input parameters of the task. ... If there is currently a set of parameters displayed on the screen (as the result of typing ESC K ), these parameters will be edited; otherwise the name of the task is derived from the User Command Area contents. ...

... The Boolean object is an object wrapper for a boolean value. ... JavaScript 1.3: added toSource method . ... If value is omitted or is 0, -0, null, false, NaN , undefined, or the empty string ( "" ), the object has an initial value of false. All other values, including any object or the string "false" , create an object with an initial value of true. ... For Boolean objects and values, the built-in toString method returns the string "true" or "false" depending on the value of the boolean object. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

... Fitting the observed dependence includes calculations of the polarization cross-sections averaged over particles orientation and size distribution, their normalization and the comparison of obtained dependencies with Serkowski's curve representing observational data for a chosen star. ... Variations of the polarization factors with wavelength are shown in Fig. 16 for homogeneous spheroidal particles with PF orientation. ... The distinction between prolate and oblate spheroids is also clearly seen. ...

Next: Discussion Up: Maximum Likelihood Estimation of Previous: Model Fitting . ... When both fits are performed on a simulated image of either kind, the value of the likelihood function is very effective in choosing the ``right'' model down to typical magnitudes of or with a single-orbit WFPC exposure, and about one magnitude fainter with the expected parameters for WFPC 2 observations (see Table 1). Six orbits are required to reach one magnitude fainter with either camera.) ...
