General Information . ... The conference is organized by the Sternberg Astronomical Institute (SAI) of Moscow University and the IAU Working group "Site-testing Instruments" . ... Use of site data in telescope operation and adaptive optics. ... Recent conferences on this subject (2007, 2008) demonstrated great interest of the community, hence the need for a new meeting. ... Unlike previous recent conferences, this meeting will cover all aspects of site monitoring for optical/IR astronomy. ...

... Laboratoire CNRS J.-V.Poncelet and the Laboratory of Algebraic Geometry and its Applications of HSE organize the fourth conference on "Zeta functions", November 19-23, 2012, to take place at the Independent University of Moscow. The Riemann zeta function is the basic example of a family of functions arising in many mathematical fields: number theory, algebraic geometry, group theory, graph theory, dynamical systems, partial differential equations.. ...

... Consequently, it is inappropriate to expand and in ordinary spherical harmonics. The proper expansion expresses both and simultaneously in terms of a particular order of generalized spherical harmonics. ... Generalized spherical harmonics start at , and for each , . ... Generalized spherical harmonics obey a sum rule analogous to a familiar one for ordinary spherical harmonics, but it includes an explicit phase factor which depends on the orientation of the two lines of sight. ...

... This chapter describes the PEPSYS package for general photometric reductions. The function of photometric reductions is to measure and remove, so far as possible, the instrumental signature from the data. ... The package contains two main parts: a planning program and a reduction program. The planning program interacts with the user to find out the goals of the observing program, and then produces a schedule of the observations needed to meet those goals efficiently. ...

... omdetect (omdetect-5.14.2) [?? Meta Index / Home Page / Algorithm Omdetect will find sources on an image using both a peak-finding and connected-pixel algorithm. The former will mainly detect ``point'' sources and the latter ``extended'' sources. The peak-finding algorithm is used first to try to locate all point sources, in order of decreasing brightness. This algorithm mainly overcomes problems with modular-8 patterns around bright sources and scattered light features. ...
