... User Guide ] Task: uvsfit Purpose: Fit point sources to a given vis file. ... You can reduce the data volume by averaging in frequency using the line parameter (apply bandpass first) or selecting a subset of the data.

The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

Orbital elements of binary components in a hierachical system can be fit to either the visibility data directly or to the separation and position angle data. ... Then use Data|Astrometry to read a previously prepared file ("zetuma.psn") containing the positional data. ... Semi-major axis = 8.4214471 . Semi-minor axis = 4.7663976 . ... We can now use the Thiele-Innes method to estimate the orbital elements from this apparent ellipse and the data, as implemented with the Util|Orbit button. ...

... The OM flatfield response is decomposed into two components, the small scale variation from subpixel to subpixel and the large scale variations with a scaling length above several CCD pixels. ... The large scale variations are mainly introduced by filter defects and contamination either on the filter or on the detector window. CAL_omLargeSenseVariation returns the flatfield component describing the large scale variations of the combination of detector plus specified filter. ...

Target Acquisition Reference Information . ... In almost all cases where an onboard acquisition will not work (because the object is in a crowded field, or is variable, or is a moving target), it is sufficient to use an early acquisition to get a WFPC2 or FOC image a few weeks in advance of the GHRS observation. ... Explicit BRIGHT and FAINT limits may be specified if you desire, although there is an increased risk of a failed acquisition unless you are confident of those fluxes. ... MAPs . ...

This WWW form allows the user to list selected portions of the NRAO/VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) radio source catalog. ... Until the completion of the survey the source catalog will NOT cover the entire region of the survey and care must be exercised in interpreting the results of a catalog search. ... The second parameter in the "Search radius" box or one of the optional items in a position list can be used to specify a region in which to look for other sources. ... An example of a position list entry is: . ...

The data in the Table on p. 5788 – 5789 embrace estimated parameters for 128 binary systems in near Earth, Mars crossing, main belt and Trojan orbits (more than 90% of corresponding objects are marked in the Table "Minor planet lightcurve parameters" as undoubtedly binary and in other cases as suspected binary). ...
