Next: Star Formation Rate and Up: No Title Previous: Calculation of Evolutionary Tracks . To start calculations, we choose the distributions of the initial binary parameters: the mass of the primary ZAMS component, , binary mass ratio, , orbital separation a . ... whereas the mass ratio distribution is not. ... The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

... Binary orbits in the acceleration/period plane . Circular Orbits . ... We first present the equations for the period and acceleration of a pulsar in an eccentric binary system as a function of its position in the orbit. ... In Freire, Kramer & Lyne (2001) (from where most of this text and following equations are taken), we describe in more detail how circular binary orbits can be determined from the observed periods and accelerations of the pulsar. ... where is the orbital period of the binary. ...

... In this context, (or, in the time domain, l ) are no longer independent variables. They are treated like any of the other parameters: i.e. are assumed to be random variables to be estimated from the observations by fitting a model. ... The MIDAS TSA package contains just one such model, namely Fourier series (SINEFIT/TSA) . ... In the time domain, the most important parameters to be estimated from the data are the correlation length of and time lag between the input signals. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

SPECTRUM ANALYZER OF MAGNETIC PHENOMENA SAMW . Spectrum analyzer allows onboard computation of electromagnetic waves spectra registered (observed) in the ionosphere and magnetosphere in the ELF/VLF frequency band. ... It consists of magnetic antenna, preamplifier, 16 bit sigma delta AD converter, DSP processor and telemetry interface. ... The channels of lower frequencies are averaged and transmitted with lower repetition rate so the telemetry volume is reduced. ... Dynamic range: 90 dB . ...

... User Guide ] Task: imfit Purpose: Fit models to a given image dataset Categories: image analysis IMFIT is a Miriad task that fits model components to an image. ... Key: clip Clip level. ... Possible objects are: level An offset (DC) level gaussian An elliptical or circular gaussian. disk An elliptical or circular disk. point This is a short-hand for a gaussian with the width of the point-spread-function. beam This is a short-hand for a gaussian with a peak value of 1 and located at the image centre....

A boolean switch determining whether the list of to be considered HK parameters shall be explicitly specified with parameter parameters . ... blank separated list of HK parameter names . ... If set to true overrideparameters must contain a list of HK parameter names and overrideparametervalues a corresponding list of validity ranges for those parameters (see below). overrideparameters . ... If withoverrideparameters is set to true the list must contain valid HK parameter names. ...

In this chapter we will consider an example of visual expert system written on the Actor Prolog language. ... There are a lot of methods of oil field bed stimulation that increase output of the oil production: thermal, physical-chemical, gas, microbiological, and others. ... Fig. ... The Top-Most diagram consists of three blocks: the "Describe parameters of hydrocarbon field" block, the "Check adaptability of existed methods of oil production" block, and the "Display solution" block. ...

The problem of solar wind data correlation for the observations onboard several spacecraft is very important for three points of view: . ... This problem is studied now in detail by systematic determination of ion flux and ion velocity data correlations by INTERBALL-1 (IKI group), WIND and IMP 8 (both - MIT group). ... Solar wind plasma correlation lengths from IMP 8, WIND and INTERBALL-1. ... Correlation of solar wind observations onboard several spacecraft: INTERBALL-1, IMP 8 and WIND data. ...

... Several of the tasks in the spectral package share a common set of parameters. ... Each task in the spectral package has a hidden parameter which points to the pkgpars parameter file. The parameters stored here include the observed data sets and the model descriptor, and instrument-specific parameters. ... The observed counts and error data set contained in the table file ( *_obs.tab ) produced by qpspec will be the input data for subsequent spectral tasks. ...
