The Linear Ramp Filters (LRFs) provide a narrow band ( ) imaging capability which is continuously tunable from 3710е to 9762е. These are essentially a collection of narrow band interference filters whose central wavelength varies with position on the filter glass. ... If it is necessary to know which CCD will be used, observers can consult Table 3.7 or Table 3.8 , or use the on-line LRF calculator tool on the WFPC2 WWW pages. ... See Linear Ramp Filters for further details on LRFs.) ...

Plans are under way to create a new way of performing non-interactive observations which will be called auto-observing . ... Non-interactive observing with CIMA has for a long time been available with the use of CIMA command files. Contrary to normal command file observing which requires a command file with a set of commands to be executed sequentially, auto-observing will use a list of sources and a list of instructions on how to observe each of the sources. ...

In Actor Prolog a resident is a special mechanism that helps processes to inspect state of other processes. A resident observes the state of a specified (target) process and if the state of the process changes (for instance, after message handling) it proves a specified predicate of the process. ... Work of the resident. ... Any change of the list of target processes or arguments of resident function results in activation of the resident and repeated collection of information in the target worlds. ...

Get whether the life of this observer is over, and therefore that it should be changed to the next one provided by the getNextObserver() method. ... Get the next observer to use once the life of this one is over. ...

... The scheduling routines assist in creating an observing list (stored in the startable) from scratch or from another list stored on disk, and computing the visibility of the stars in a specific night and array configuration. The date of observation is taken from the variable date , and the array name from the variable systemid . If these are not defined, defaults are used for date (the next night) and for array (NPOI). ... addstar , stars _char Add one or more stars to the startable. ...

... Typically, an observation specified by an observer cannot be directly executed by an observatory. Observation specifications need to be configured so that they can be used by other components of the observatory. This paper motivates the need for configuration tools and describes a software architecture which supports configuring astronomical observations. ... This paper describes a system for preparing and configuring individual astronomical observations. ...

... Let us assume to begin with that there is no source at a given location, only background. Let us calculate the probability that the observed counts at that location are due solely to background. ... The routines described in the present section are designed to take as arguments the probability cutoff (actually a cutoff in likelihood is used) and the background, or expectation value for the counts, and use them to calculate the minimum value of source counts which is detectable at those levels. ...

... Up: Description of program searchdup Previous: Program use . Input records are ordered per date of observation, and the list of known (observed) sources is cleared. Each record is compared in position to all the known sources. If the sky distance is less or equal to the specified one, the record is added to the list of observations for that source. If no known sources are within the specified radius, a new source is created, with the coordinates of the observation record. ...

... Under certain conditions, like those in the nucleus of a QSO, all atoms can be made to emit light at particular wavelengths. ... If that source is approaching the observer, the wave is squashed up onto itself making the wavelength shorter. ... This is redshift. ... You can see how the section of the QSO spectrum which we observe changes with redshift. ... We then see how far we had to slide the observed spectrum along the scale to make it match and that is the objects redshift. ... The 2QZ team . ...
