Continuum sources in the list used for flux density calibration were selected in an ad-hoc fashion from a variety of places, but primarily from Kuehr et al (A&AS, 45, 367, 1981), the compendium of linearly polarized sources by Tabara & Inoue (A&AS, 39, 379, 1980), and an unpublished list of unconfused calibrator sources prepared from the NVSS survey by Jim Condon and Qi Feng Yin. ...

... 371Gregory Taylor . ... We persent a catalog of 1274 discrete sources detected during a 5 yr, 6 cm, radio-patrol survey of the galactic plane for variavle sources. ... Seventy-five percent of the sources are weaker than 75 mJy, and as a consequence reliable sources and 27 possible variables were detected, of which 64 % exhibited shirt-term variability. ... A comparison with previous centimeter variability studies suggests the possible existence of two distinnct variability components. ...

The information path to prepare, perform and reduce a radioastronomical observation, using the Arcos correlator , is schematized in the figure: . The programs reside part on the computer network of the Arcetri Observatory, and part at the Medicina Radio Telescope . All programs running at Arcetri are written for a Sun workstation, and are public domain software, available upon request. Programs running at the telescope are written for a PC with DOS/Windows (or Linux).

The Ryle Telescope was used for some years for monitoring variable sources (in addition to its role in source-surveys related to the Sunyaev-Zeldovitch studies). The instrument is now transformed into the "AMI large array": see the AMI pages for details. ... The rebuild took place between 2006 June and mid-2008; between these dates there is no useful data available. ... For some sources there are many plots, organised by date: . ...

... The stars examined here were primarily culled from two lists of X--ray sources in Orion. ... The second region is two degrees in extent east--west and ten degrees north--south with Orionis being near the northern edge. ... In the end, two main regions were chosen for monitoring: stars near Orionis and stars northwest of the belt of Orion. ... The PSPC identified 22 sources within 15 of Orionis in addition to the sources listed in Table 1 , giving a total of 85 X--ray sources in the Orionis region. ...

Observations from the HERschel Inventory of the Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) have been used to identify dusty populations of sources in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC and SMC). We conducted the study using the HERITAGE catalogs of point sources available from the Herschel Science Center from both the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS; 100 and 160 ЮМm) and Spectral and Photometric Imaging Receiver (SPIRE; 250, 350, and 500 ЮМm) cameras. ...

... Where we have just a single image we assume a probabilistic mode of source detection such that, at a given image pixel, if the probability that the observed value at that pixel could have arisen through statistical fluctuation of the background at that pixel lies below a certain limiting probability , the pixel is considered to contain a source. In XMM practice it is likelihood rather than itself which is employed; in this case the detection criterion is for to exceed the cutoff . ...

They are concerned with Attitude Control System of the spacecraft, satellite visibility from tracking stations, limits on the satellite autonomous operations during the orbit, and needs for auxiliary operations with the spacecraft. ...

... There is no question about the source of ionospheric plasma , since it is created from the ambient neutral atmosphere by ionization. However, the source of magnetospheric plasma is a much more complicated question: although it seems obvious that both solar wind and ionosphere feed it, the relative importance of these two sources is unclear. ... Protons (H + ) are the primary ions in solar wind and one of the major components in ionospheric outflows, and thus not good indicators of their source. ...
