HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE DAILY REPORT #2033 PERIOD COVERED: 0000Z (UTC) 01/05/98 - 0000Z (UTC) 01/06/98 Daily Status Report as of 006/0000Z 1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED: 1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 7618 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 7 Photometric Monitor UV/OPT STD) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the standard star GRW+70D582 as part of a Cycle 7 photometric monitoring program. ... The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. ...

... The first step to improve the FORS calibration is therefore to obtain data to allow a computation of the illumination correction across the field. ... Another limitation on the calibration accuracy has been the brightness of the Landolt standards which have forced the use of extremely short exposures introducing small but non-negligible shutter-time errors and also resulting in a very small number of useful standards per frame. ...

I-GALFA Survey Coverage Complete . ... The upper figure shows positions in equatorial coordinates: right ascension and declination, which are like extensions of the Earth's longitude and latitude coordinates on the sky. The lower figure shows positions in Galactic longitude and latitude, where Galactic latitude = 0 is the Galactic equator, or the plane of the Milky Way, and the center of the Galaxy lies in the Galactic plane in the direction where the Galactic longitude = 0. ...

... The process of proposing for Hubble Space Telescope observing time has been revised, to make it simpler for proposers. We describe the simple, flexible, and robust prototype system created to handle proposal submission. ... Proposing for Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) observing time proceeds in two phases: the scientific merits of the proposal are considered in Phase I; only accepted proposals enter Phase II, where the observations are described in complete detail. ...

Astronomers?I?m not sure how they think but my impression so far is that a missing value in one attribute/variable from a object/observation/informant, all other attributes related to that object become useless because that object is not considered in scientific data analysis or model evaluation process. ... 2 Comments . ...

... We present the fifth list with results of the Hamburg/SAO Survey for Emission-Line Galaxies (HSS therein, SAO - Special Astrophysical Observatory, Russia). ... The data of this snap-shot spectroscopy survey confirmed 166 emission-line objects out of 209 observed candidates and allowed their quantitative spectral classification and redshift determination. ... For the remaining 30 previously known ELGs we give either improved data of the line intensities or some independent measurements. ... Galaxies ...

ATMoB "Open Cluster Observing Award " Guidelines Purpose: To promote observing among the membership of the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston through participation in the Open Clusters Observing Awards program. Introduction: This awards program is oriented towards visually observing open clusters above magnitude 9.9. ... It turns out that a very unprejudiced and convenient method to dermine the limiting magnitude is to count the number of visible stars in certain areas on the sky. ...

... The degradation correction coefficients have been calculated by a linear fitting to the measured counts (coincidence loss corrected) of the stars BPM 16274, Hz 2 and GD 153 observed periodically since the beginning of the mission. The fit is done for each filter as a function of the MJD of observation, using the data of all stars. These stars are observed once per year (BPM 16274 twice) to monitor the variation of sensitivity.

... NICS will be the only infrared instrument for the first light of the TNG; as a consequence, we decided to incorporate a sufficient degree of operation flexibility by providing the instrument with six different observing modes, three aimed at imaging and three at spectroscopy: . ... It will be possible to use the narrow band filters as order sorters; this will allow to perform high resolution long-slit spectroscopy in the wavelength ranges covered by the available narrow band filters. ...

... A radio galaxy is a galaxy that emits an unusually big amount of energy at radio wavelengths. ... Inside of each galaxy with an active nucleus (radio galaxies are among them) there must be a system of a "central machine" responsible for the colossal amount of the emitted energy from radio to gamma ranges. ... Sometimes a radio source in an active galaxy may flare again if the needed conditions appear (a new portion of matter would fall into the furnace of the "central machine"). ...
