Top] [Prev] [Next] . We describe the program for detection and characterization of extra-solar planets using the Advanced Fiber Optic Echelle (AFOE) spectrograph, developed at Mt. ... The AFOE is capable of obtaining radial velocity precision better than 10 m s-1 on relatively bright stars, and has produced data confirming the low mass companions to 51 Peg, Boo, and And. ...

SAOtng supports FITS files internally, so that a standard FITS image file can be sent directly to SAOtng for display using XPA: xpaset SAOtng Also, when a new file name is sent to SAOtng, the program checks the first 2880 bytes of the file to see if it is a FITS file and if so, processes it accordingly. Support for other image file formats (or any other image format) is added to SAOtng by writing two external file access programs: . ... The command-line of the image section program . ...

Since the MD5 function is commonly available, other software can populate a database with encrypted passwords that are usable by Apache digest authentication. ...

Both gripes from users and continued spectrum monitoring initiate in-house and off-site searches for the source of Radio Frequency Interference. The digital equipment used in various backends, frequency synthesizers at different mixing stages of the IF/LO, electric motors, video cameras used for safety-status monitoring, on-site vehicles, displays at the Visitor Center could in principle cause internally generated RFI. ...

... The generation of simulated sources whose physical properties are well understood is useful in assessing the functionality of point source analysis software. Qpsim is an IRAF/PROS task which will generate events from sources of given intensity, shape, and position and either overlay them on a flat background in a new QPOE file or inject them into an existing QPOE file. ... The simulated data can be a useful tool in calibrating point source analysis software. ...

Next: Navigation Pre-Observation Products . ... SRT (Space Radio Telescope) Schedule (SRS) File . ... What: GOCG generates the Space Radio Telescope (SRT) schedule file, or SRS file, from current GSTS file. The SRS file has more precise time stamps than long-term schedules, and also designates which GTS will be used when. ... The SRS file also serves as the antenna pointing schedule file, as it describes the planned orientation of the spacecraft (and solar panels) as a function of time. ...

The First Law (1): Energy is Conserved in a closed system: . ... We usually consider work and heat flow as the two kinds of energy . The Second Law (2): The Law of Entropy: . ... The amount of disorder increases . ... You can not go from a disordered system to an ordered system without inputting more energy (this is the most important attribute of the second law) . ... In no way can we recover work of that this disordered system without putting energy into the system. ... More on Thermodynamics . ...
