Changes in the WFPC2 observation scheduling system were introduced early in 1999 primarily in order to increase the scheduling efficiency of HST observations starting with Cycle 8. First, the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) contours used to limit WFPC2 observations have been modified slightly. ... This change results in a 3% increase in designated SAA-free orbits, which allows better scheduling efficiency, and is expected to impact negatively less than 0.1% of WFPC2 science observations. ...

... Recent studies indicate that stars are most likely forming within the binary and multiple systems. ... During several years we are conducting the observations of such multiple stellar systems at the BTA telescope in order to find their companions and study the properties therein. ... This star is interesting in that it may be a dynamically unstable multiple star, meaning that over time, such systems will split into individual stars. ... A bright component is a very tight spectroscopic binary star. ...

Next: Marginal nights Up: Special problems Previous: Nonlinearity . If you want to either plan or reduce observations made in your own non-standard system, both the planning and the reduction programs let you declare the system as NONE or OTHER . Use NONE when you want to work entirely in the instrumental system, and OTHER when you want to use a special system of standard stars. ... You can maintain your own files of standard stars for your private system, or for your instrumental system. ...
