... The procedure of radiometer signal integration can be considered as a sort of reducing dimension of the initial sampling space, where the samples are the result of analog-to-digital conversion. ... The probability distribution of the signal and spikes is completely known. ... The quality of the considered algorithm could be also illustrated by Figure 2 . ... One could see the considered adaptive algorithm is preferable even by low degree of compression, because all spikes have been depressed. ...

Next: Spectral Line Processing and Up: Spectral Line Data Reduction Previous: ATCA Spectral Line Correlator . ... The ATCA allows you to observe two frequency setups simultaneously ifsel allows you to load just one of them by setting ifsel=1 or ifsel=2 . ... The RPFITS file does not contain the rest frequency of the spectral line observed, so you need to give this at some stage during data reduction - the earlier the better. The rest frequency can be entered (via restfreq , in GHz) in atlod . ...

Local galaxies are in a state of energy equipartition which means that the kinetic energy density equals roughly the thermal one and the magnetic one. ... In models of young galaxies magnetic fields are usually not considered as they are assumed not to be dynamical important at high redshifts. In the presence of turbulence, however, the turbulent dynamo can amplify weak magnetic seed fields by randomly stretching, twisting, and folding the field lines. ...
