... Both sets of objective transmission gratings consist of hundreds of co-aligned facets mounted to supporting structures on 4 annuli (one for each of the four co-aligned mirror pairs) to intercept the x rays exiting the HRMA. ... The two sets of transmission gratings, attached to the mounting structure are shown in Figure . ... An individual facet has 0.43-m-thick gold grating bars with 50% filling factor and 9920- period, resulting in 1.15-/mm dispersion. The HRC-S is the primary LETG readout. ...

... At the summer date, at the chosen time, the Sun is high in the sky. at point S, while at the winter date, it is low in the sky, at point W. The shadow of the gnomon is always in the plane containing the Sun and the points A and B. If AB is a thin line, the shadow will also be a thin line, the intersection of this plane with the base of the sundial. ... Summer or winter, the shadow is therefore along the same line, the intersection of the above plane and the base of the sundial. ...

... This is done by taking in all input files the extension whose name is specified by the maintable parameter (called 'merged extension' in what follows) and merging the columns into a single output extension of the same name. ... Its contents is taken from the CCDID keyword (and QUADRANT for EPIC PN). ... To propagate other column specific keywords, they must be specified manually via the extensionchecks , mainattributes , maxattributes and minattributes parameters (see above). ...

Rig the secondary truss to the overhead crane using a large shackle and 4 long nylon straps (load capacity of 1000 Lb. each). ...

... This general purpose enclosure offers access to the sky for several small instruments. Its truss roof rolls back on the steel I-beams and tracks that extend to the north of the building. A chain drive attached to the underside of the trusses provides the power that makes opening the observatory simple. ... The building is on a concrete pad originally intended for a student radio telescope, and it is serviced by a convenient cable trough that provides power and network from the main building. ...

... The Science Operation Department is composed of Astronomers, Telescope Instruments Operators(TIOs) and Data Handling Administrators(DHAs). ... Astronomers have proposed several methods to quantitatively measure the amount of turbulence above the telescope, which the most common ones is Differential Image Motion Monitor (DIMM). In optical testing, the Hartmann test is the common method to test the quality of optical components. ... Hartmann mask consists of 48 lenses. ...
