RATAN-600 OBSERVATIONS OF MICROWAVE STRUCTURE OF THE QUIET SUN T.I. Kaltman, V.M. Bogo d, A.N. Korzhavin, S.Kh. ... A small-scaled structure with the size of 20-40 arc sec is regularly observed with RATAN-600 one-dimensional observations. ... The daily monitoring with RATAN-600 observations provides p ossibilities to regularly estimate a state of the quiet Sun by emission characteristics of microwave small-scaled structure and to trace rises of new centers of activities. ...

... Previous: Residual Bias Removal in HST NICMOS Images . ... Bias frames taken with CCDs should be homogeneous in intensity. ... Using a large number of bias frames obtained in one specific run, the time-dependent pattern was found to be built up of a fixed one-dimensional periodic function whose phase-shift varies from row to row. It was successfully removed from calibration and science frames through the use of pre- and upscan ``bias'' pixels available in each of these frames. ...
