... The success of HST image restoration depends critically on the ability to obtain, either through direct observation or through detailed optical modeling, a good estimate of the point spread function. ... We describe an approach to PSF modeling for the HST which utilizes two complementary programs: (1) a sophisticated prescription retrieval code, and (2) a hybrid PSF modeling code that combines both ray-tracing and diffraction propagators. ...

... The most powerful and widely used methods to calculate the scattering matrix of a fractal cluster are based on the coupled dipoles methods (e.g. the Discrete Dipole Approximation, DDA) and the theory of light scattering by a cluster of spherical particles [2-4]. ... At present the procedure of calculation of the scattering matrix is well developed for both an oriented cluster of spherical particles and for chaotically oriented clusters of such particles [4]. ...

... Lightcurves of two satellites of Saturn, namely Hyperion (S7) and Phoebe (S9), were modeled using algorithms and programs developed for calculat­ ing the rotational dynamics and constructing theoretical lightcurves of planetary satellites. ... The problem of fitting an observed lightcurve with the model one is solved by varying the initial data and values of the parameters of the problem. ...

Next: Uncorrelated flux component Up: Introduction Previous: The Hierarchical Stellar Systems Contents . The type parameter allows to select from a range of stellar models, either analytical, or availbale as data files or FITS images. ... For all types from zero to 11, the flux distribution is computed as flat ( teff=0 ), a black body ( teff < 0 ), or a stellar atmosphere ( teff > 0 ). For all types, specifying an arbitrary SED will override stellar spectra or fluxes derived from the images. ...

... The magnetic field of the Earth has been investigated by satellites for several decades now, and enough of it is known to model its average strength and shape during different levels of overall magnetic activity. Presently the most used empirical global magnetic field models are the Tsyganenko models (1987, 1989) , referred to as T87 and T89, respectively, although even these consist of several submodels. ...
