... To be read in conjunction with Section 4.11 of the WFPC2 Instrument Handbook , -Version 4.0. ... 1 The second study found evidence that CTE loss for faint stars has increased with time (Whitmore, 1998). The primary observational consequence of CTE loss is that a point source at the top of the chip appears to be fainter than if observed at the bottom of the chip, due to the loss of electrons as the star is read out down the chip (see Figure 1 ). ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bitesize Astronomy . ... Last week's Snack talked about how black holes can affect the environment around them in such a way as to be very bright . ... It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

... Finding Stars . ... Handling Bad Pixels . ... The guide camera image controller can control one or more guide cameras. ... Each time the camera is read, the image is automatically saved to a fits file on a shared disk. ... Cameras that have bad pixels require "bad pixel maps" in order to find stars, centroid or even compute statistics for the image. ... View this image (for instance in NIH Image) and determine an upper and lower cutoff; pixels whose values are outside of this range are considered...

... 4.4 Imbedding HTML in a Document . In the following discussion of SPECIAL processing
, I will assume that rtftohtml has not been customized. If it has, the text styles used to create special effects may be different. ... Normally, if your RTF document contained the text "<cite>hello</cite>", the translator would output this as: "&lt;cite&gt;hello&lt;/cite&gt;". ... If, however, you want the <cite></cite> to be interpreted as HTML markup, you must format the tags using Hidden and Shadow. ...

Next: ZGSC (Compressed GSC) and XSKYMAP . ... This is a preliminary report on an investigation of the quality and properties of plates digitized during creation of the Guide Star Catalog (GSC). The results will be vital for reclassifying GSC objects. ... Many objects are measured on more than one plate, and thus have multiple catalog entries. ... Among the shortcomings of the GSC are: biased magnitudes and incorrect classifications for certain objects, presence of artifact objects. ...
