... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

The VLTI Calibrator Selector Tool is a tool intended to assist in the selection of suitable interferometric calibrators for VLTI observations with MIDI and AMBER. It uses a model of the VLTI and its instruments to assess the fringe visibility, given the observed bandpass, the geometry, spectrum, and coordinates of the target and the time at which the observations are to be made. ... The tool offers an HTML/Java based interface and consists of two pages. ... The quality flag depends on LDD_chi2. ...

... The analysis and reduction of the STIS flanking fields proceeded in similar fashion as for the imaging of the Main STIS Field. ... The DARK calibration reference file used in the CALSTIS data reduction steps was constructed using a 'delta-dark' image appropriate for the epoch of the flanking field observations. ... DRIZZLE drop-size used for the flanking fields was a "pixfrac" of 0.8. ... For information on the data reduction, please read first the technical information for the Main WFPC2 Field . ...
