... For each observed position the table contains designation of object as in file of observations, the time of observation, the number and name/ preliminary designation of minor planet supposedly identical with observed object, the values of O – C (observed position minus computed one) in right ascension and declination expressed in arcsec, the difference O – C between observed magnitude and computed one, the code of observatory in the Observatory list (see Observatories section). ...

... We will consider the rms, (K), for observations with a receiver of system temperature, T , frequency resolution, per polarization, and total integration time per observing cycle, . ... For ``in-band'' frequency switching, the line under investigation is always in the observing band. ... Position Switching or ``Out-of-Band'' Frequency Switching: Here the line is only observed for one half of the time, with noise being present all of the time. ...

... In order to compare the number of different evolutionary stages obtained and X-ray luminosity of the chosen X-ray sources with the observed galactic values we use the sum of C/O+O/C , where C and O are the calculated and observed values of a given binary type, respectively. If we make comparison for a number of different binary species (for example, we compare the number of CV, number of X-ray pulsars,   total X-ray luminosity of LMXB, etc.), we write this criterion in the form: . ...

... Computing the true count rates for digital data. ... The following equation is used to find the count rate. x = ( raw counts / sample time ) . ... True count rates for digital data are corrected by using the first equation for a point source and the second for an extended source. a = ( y - pre_amp - darkrate ) / ( highvolt x pt_effic ) . ... True photocurrents (count rates for analog data) are corrected by the first equation for point sources and the second equation for extended sources. ...

... Up: Data Analysis and Processing Techniques . ... Also, a method for quality control of CCD observations is suggested. ... Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

Of the 54 radio sources with previously published identifications, 50 optical counterparts have been confirmed while for 4 sources new identifications are proposed. ...

... The scheduling routines assist in creating an observing list (stored in the startable) from scratch or from another list stored on disk, and computing the visibility of the stars in a specific night and array configuration. The date of observation is taken from the variable date , and the array name from the variable systemid . If these are not defined, defaults are used for date (the next night) and for array (NPOI). ... addstar , stars _char Add one or more stars to the startable. ...

Pulkovo NEO Page . ... NEA Accuracy Estimation . ... The estimation of accuracy of the current CCD observations of asteroids and comets is constantly performed at Pulkovo Observatory. ... The (O-C) values, so called "Observed" minus "Calculated" positions, characterize numerically the observations of any observatory, both professional and amateur, during a short period (one or several close nights). ... So the (O-C) values for these objects nearly entirely define the errors of observations. ...

The CHIANTI database consists of 4 primary ASCII files for each ion in the database. contains the energy levels in cm^(-1) It includes both experimental data and theoretical values of the levels energies. ... Wavelengths are based on experimental level energies where available; wavelengths calculated from theoretical energies are less accurate and are given as negative values. ... contains the spline fits to the electron collision strengths scaled according to Burgess and Tully (1992). ...
