... Watchouts . ... Spectral fitting programs such as XSPEC apply the proper renormalization to the background spectra, using the value of the BACKSCAL keyword in the header of the spectral file(s). The SAS task backscale calculates the BACKSCAL value. backscale is automatically run, when a spectrum is extracted via xmmselect . Users must be aware that the current implementation of backscale employs the full area of the spectrum extraction region, save the (known) bad pixels/columns. ...

If there are a certain number of adjacent subsets with amplitudes within the given range, and this number of subsets is greater than or equal to WINDOW, these sub- sets are taken into account. ...

... Since image restoration algorithms are highly sensitive to the accuracy of the calculated PSF, a significant portion of our research effort is devoted to accurately modeling the PSF which is a highly non-linear problem. Our approach is based on analytical modeling of the wavefront phase using Zernike polynomials. ... In the Fourier domain, we scale the phase map by an observed PSF to more accurately account for the HST/FOC combination. ... The final result is an improved estimate of the phase map. ...

Rotang can either be run from the command line as described here or through the alfa_ang GUI . ... To run rotang at Arecibo: . Start IDL . ... rotang, Date , RA , Dec , Time , /choice . Here Date takes the format YYMMDD (e.g. 041128 for the 28 th of November, 2004). ... Rotang also calculates the Azimuth and Zenith Angle fir every source. If the Zenith Angle is greater than 20 degrees, then the program will return that the source is down and will not calculate an optimum ALFA angle. ...

... The procedure of radiometer signal integration can be considered as a sort of reducing dimension of the initial sampling space, where the samples are the result of analog-to-digital conversion. ... The probability distribution of the signal and spikes is completely known. ... The quality of the considered algorithm could be also illustrated by Figure 2 . ... One could see the considered adaptive algorithm is preferable even by low degree of compression, because all spikes have been depressed. ...

Next: Imaging by an Optimizing Method . ... A big advantage of this numerical integrator is its stability: the error in the semi-major axis and the eccentricity depends only on the step size and does not grow with an increasing number of time steps. ... As the integration time increases, the numerical results become more contaminated by various errors. ... A new symplectic integrator produces no secular truncation errors in the actions of a Hamiltonian system. ...

Next: *upspecrdf, downspecrdf* - Transform Up: Spectral Analysis Previous: *grid_plot* - Plot Results . The conversion of count rate to flux depends on the intrinsic spectrum of the source, so xflux must be used in conjunction with fit . Fit generates a table of the best fit intrinsic spectrum ( _int.tab extension). xflux uses this table to calculate either the integrated flux between two energy limits or the flux density at a specific energy. ... This produces ``..._obs.tab'' file. ...

... The described algorithm is suitable for measurements of complex images of stars. ... a) the zero-based number of stars in the complex (multicentric) image, . b) set of preliminary coordinates - x i , y i , for all stars, index i is number of a star, . ... i - index of a star in the complex image; . ... These parameters are calculated by a nonlinear method of a least squares.The main output parameters of this algorithm are x i , y i ; where the index i is number of a star in the multicentric image. ...

Geomagnetic storms and substorms are a natural hazard similar to hurricanes, floods etc. ... Solar and geomagnetic activity also probably influences the Earth's climate and human health. ... Under southward directed IMF the Earth's magnetosphere is open to input from the solar wind flow. ... Since practical importance of solar wind measurements was recognized, a number of approaches was developed for prediction of the geomagnetic activity basing on the solar wind data. ...

Influence of coupling constant deviations from their current values on the abundances of 4 He, 2 D+ 3 He, and 7 Li nuclei produced during the primordial nucleosynthesis is studied taking into account the possibility of simultaneous variations of the gravitational and electroweak constants. ...

SKA ­ TDT Group On Phase Computation during Folding C.Baffa, E.Giani January 2014 The last part of pulsar search algorithm, as in the SKA TDT group approach, is the verification and optimization of pulsar parameters candidates identified in the previous phases. ... As the phase errors are expressed as fractions of the full period (in our case 44 measurement of 50 s), it is evident that the maximum integration time compatible with single precision phase computation is very short. ...

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. ...

Next: Sky Subtraction Up: Construction of Flat Previous: Standard construction . For a number of projects where very deep integrations and accurate flat fields are required, and the targets are point sources or much smaller than the frame size, the sky background itself can be used to calculate the flat field. ...
