... Matrix of Transformation | ... Every set of attitude coefficients (corresponding to a line in attitude data file) is valid for its own time interval and gives the possibility to get a matrix N of tranformation from the GSE coordinate system to the S/C coordinate system as well as a matrix M of tranformation from the S/C coordinate system to the GSE coordinate system. ... and the matrix M of transformation from the S/C to the GSE systems (the direction cosines matrix) is: . ... V GSE = M * V S/C . ...

... Coordinate system . It is necessary to specify the coordinate system for the drilling of plug-plates so that the drilling file (currently named plPlugMap), plate drilling, cartridge, rotator wrap and the rotator itself are compatible. ... The TCC rotator angle (object system) is defined to be 0 degrees for this orientation. ... Thus, the rotator angle gives the conventional astronomical position angle on the sky of the y axis (although Russell won't acknowledge this necessarily). ...

... the radiative transfer equation (RTE) for the randomly-irregular magnetized plasma has been derived on the base of general grounds of the multiple scattering theory . ... Solutions of several absolute tasks of the scattering theory have been obtained (on the optical depth of the ionospheric plasma layer, on the value of radio wave anomalous attenuation, on anomalous refraction, on the backscattered signal intensity for the source being placed within a plasma layer). ...

... Previous: The ACSIS Data Reduction System . ... The AST library supports the attachment of astrometric calibrations to astronomical datasets, the processing of this information, and generation of associated graphical output. ... In this paper we outline some more recent developments and applications, which include a set of efficient data re-gridding algorithms for curvilinear coordinate systems, improved FITS support, user-defined coordinate transformations, and pin-cushion/barrel distortion. ...

Next: Data reduction: moments Up: No Title Previous: Feature enhancement: local . ... When this is done for the energy map, with the energy scale distributed logarithmically, the result is shown on Fig. ... It can be shown that the mean magnitude at each duration reproduces the mean power spectrum in log-log coordinates. Therefore, this particular presentation of the probability density function shows graphically the scale-dependent scatter around the mean energy spectrum. ...
