... 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. ...

... A baseline vector is oriented from telescope 1 to telescope 2, i.e. the baseline coordinates are the coordinates of station 2 minus the coordinates from station 1. In the aperture plane, the coordinate increases to the East, and the coordinate increases to the North. ... In PEARL, a map on the sky is allocated with the -coordinate corresponding to RA, which increases to the left (East). The relationship between visibility and map is then . ...

Next: Displaying Images Up: Spectral Line Data Reduction Previous: Computation . A few comments are in order when using the imaging task, invert , to create spectral cubes (more information on invert can be found in Chapter 13 ): . To conserve space, invert produces a single beam dataset for all planes of a cube. ... That is, invert usually insists that no channels of a spectrum are flagged before that spectrum can be used for imaging. ... The slop keyword takes two values. ... VELSW . ...

The astrometric information in FITS images (also referred to as the WCS) is stored in the header using a standard set of keywords. The reference location is defined by the following keywords: . ... CD1_1 is the partial of first axis coordinate w.r.t. x . ... This facilitates proper translation of pixel to sky coordinates for science analysis, and allows for all the necessary shifting information for each image to be stored in the header of the image itself for future alignment reference. ...

In the averaged frame it tries to detect objects above the threshold ( ) within the search window and fits a gaussian to any detected object. ... SET/MOS def_mode=i . ... It may be advisable to do at least a rough sky subtraction ahead of this command to facilitate the detection of the objects. ...

3) Planets and Brown Dwarfs . ... By its nature, this method is most sensitive to massive planets orbiting close to their stars. ... That means that some of the more massive extrasolar planets could actually be brown dwarfs (although the statistics of the finds suggest that most of them are not). ... Another possible difference between brown dwarfs and massive planets is how they are born. ... They would base the fundamental definition on the mode of formation: a planet is built from planetesimals. ...

From the equation of motion , m d v /dt = q( v x B ) one can calculate that, in a presence of magnetic field B , a charged particle is accelerated in direction perpendicular to both v (perp) and B . ... The angle a between magnetic field B and velocity vector of a charged particle, v ., i.e., sin a = v(perp) / v(total), where v(perp) refers to the velocity component perpendicular to B . ...

... Content Model: Optional list header (LH), followed by one or more terms (DT) and definitions (DD). A definition list is a list of terms and corresponding definitions. Definition lists are typically formatted with the term on the left with the definition following on the right or on the next line. ... The definition list element can take the COMPACT attribute, which suggests that a compact rendering be used, and is appropriate if the list elements are small and/or the entire list is large. ...

Full derivation of the projectile motion equations Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity. So, by definition... dv a= dt For the projectile motion case, acceleration is constant. ... To undo differentiation, you need to integrate. ... The right hand is just the integral of the differential of v - i.e. it takes you back to v. For the left hand side, to integrate a constant, multiply it by whatever variable you are integrating against (in this case, t) and add a constant. ...

... sin f = y / r . cos f = x / r . ... They are now viewed as new definitions of the sine and cosine, for the polar angle f given by x and y ( a slightly different way of formulating this definition is described further below ). ... sin 2 f + cos 2 f = 1 . ...
