Next: A Universal Diagram for Up: ``Ecology'' of Magnetic Rotators Previous: The Corotation Radius . The interaction of a magnetic rotator with the surrounding plasma to a large extent depends on the relation between the four characteristic radii: the stopping radius, , the gravitational capture radius,   , the light cylinder radius,   , and the corotation radius,   . ... Hence, the classification of the interaction regimes may well mean the classification of magnetic rotators. ...

Point Spread Function . The OTA spherical aberration produces a Point Spread Function (PSF--the apparent surface brightness profile of a point source), as presented to the instruments, with broad wings. ... It shows the aberrated HST PSF, the WFPC2 PSF, and for comparison the PSF that would be obtained from a long integration if HST were installed at a ground based observatory with one arcsecond seeing. ... The WF/PC-1 core was approximately 50% broader than the core that is obtained with WFPC2). ...
