It is stored in the file SATURN.FITS. The measured point spread function from the data file SATURN_PSF.FITS is also displayed. Fig. 7 shows the result of restoration. The restored image appears much clearer, with higher contrast than the measured data. ... Thu Jun 2 15:47:14 EDT 1994 ...

... Archives . ... The PCA and ICA is used for separating mixed components with some assumptions. ... The need of source separation methods in astronomy has led various adaptations of decomposition methods available. ... I rarely come up with a paper which gathered and summarized component separation methods applicable to astronomical data. In that regards, the following paper seems useful to overview methods of reducing dimensionality for astronomers. [arxiv:0805.0269] . ... Chandra Blog . ...

... The Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility's (AXAF) High and Low energy transmission gratings (HETG, LETG) data require new tools and data structures to support x-ray dispersive spectroscopy. ... The sky coordinates, which are referenced to the telescope mirror node and therefore independent of the grating reference node, are only useful for the imaging of zero order and the filtering of grating arm photons. ... For more details on the AXAF grating flight processing software, see: . ...

Detector on-chip integration (DIT): seconds. to your chosen value - a separate page gives recommended values to use for DIT - for modes 1 and 2 below you may wish to start with the maximum recommended values as these will minimize the effect of read noise (a total object exposure of Y secs with DIT=X secs will produce Y/X lots of read noise) and give you a lower limit on the time needed. ...
