By default it automatically averages ( 20 ) columns around the position ( center of frame ) of the frame and searches for objects in this averaged frame that have an intensity above ( -0.04 ) when compared to a median over ( 5 ) pixels. can be absolute ( > 0) or relative to the median intensity ( < 0). ...

... For a long time we've known that planets form and live around stars. ... When a star is born, any leftover gas and dust forms a disc around it, similar to Saturn's rings. Within this disc, small dust grains made of rock sometimes form. ... Now, for the first time ever astronomers have spotted solid grains in the gassy disc around a 'brown dwarf' an object that is neither a planet nor a star. ... Astronomers didn't expect to find these solid grains around brown dwarfs for a number of reasons. ...

EXPLANATION OF DANA'S FIBER TESTS ON THE 12M TELESCOPE.. ... But we know full well that this is not directly possible- the delay in the optical fiber carrying this signal will change both with temperature and to some degree with fiber bending as the telescope tracks objects or moves from one object to another. ... So we would like to identify at least one pair of single mode fibers in our bundle, whose delay changes due to antenna tracking etc are pretty well matched. ...
