... To run the <LAYER> version of the example, select: flower.htm . ... However, if the page had several layers with absolute positions, and you wanted to place another layer in a relative position to one of the existing layers, you could use inline JavaScript to calculate the value for LEFT or TOP . ... In this example, there is really no need to use inline JavaScript to position the last flower layer, since you could just let the TOP value default to its natural value, as in the other flower layers. ...

... The file names' construction . The flight (m) stage's file set . ... the orbital data used for the flight operation monthly (m) long-term planning, . ... The orbital calculations are based on the initial orbital data determined by KIAM RAN using the orbital radio- measurement treatment. The determined initial orbital data are presented as a state vector (satellite position and velocity) in the J2000 reference. ...

Allows you to specify a drift scan: motion at a constant velocity along a great circle. ... The path starts at the new object position (though the telescope actually intersects the path later, see Subtleties ). ... Note that the units are always /sec for both axes. ... The velocity along the path is 0.01 /sec. ... The path is assumed to start when you hit the Slew button (more precisely, when the TCC parses the command). However, it takes the telescope awhile to slew to meet the specified path. ...

This task is a flexible tool for plotting a polarization vector map from two images of the polarization and the position angle of the polarization vector. ...

... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

Pulkovo NEO Page . ... NEA Accuracy Estimation . ... The estimation of accuracy of the current CCD observations of asteroids and comets is constantly performed at Pulkovo Observatory. ... The (O-C) values, so called "Observed" minus "Calculated" positions, characterize numerically the observations of any observatory, both professional and amateur, during a short period (one or several close nights). ... So the (O-C) values for these objects nearly entirely define the errors of observations. ...

... Activity 3: Measuring the Position of the Sun in the Sky . Purpose: To give students the opportunity to measure the position of the Sun in the sky using simple tools and methods. ... Alternatively, you may have students devise their own methods of relative measurement and apply them to measuring the position of the Sun in the sky. ... Rangi is the sky, and when the Sun is near Rangi's head it is summer in New Zealand. ... Read the Maori story to students. ... back to Teachers' Newsletter Main Page ...

In order to calculate the line profile of a given absorption line for atomic species Z with a wavelength LAMBDA (in Angstroms) and a microturbulent velocity VT (in km/s). ... mode . ... 1) The input model may contain more than one model (i.e. it may be an entire grid of models). Spectrum will cycle through this grid NMOD times, omitting NSKIP-1 models from the . ... However, the input data following MODE must be repeated NMOD times in order to obtain equivalent results for each model in the grid. ...

Next: Amorphous magnesium silicate Up: Examples of data contained Previous: Examples of data contained . ... We have used the infrared optical constants of forsterite contained in the database for calculating the absorption cross sections of spherical and non-spherical particles in the Rayleigh limit (see Fig. The spectra are obtained by averaging the cross sections calculated for the three different crystallographic directions. ...

... The Boolean object is an object wrapper for a boolean value. ... JavaScript 1.3: added toSource method . ... If value is omitted or is 0, -0, null, false, NaN , undefined, or the empty string ( "" ), the object has an initial value of false. All other values, including any object or the string "false" , create an object with an initial value of true. ... For Boolean objects and values, the built-in toString method returns the string "true" or "false" depending on the value of the boolean object. ...

There are six possible ways of object description: . a) by number(s) . ... d) by list . e) by orbital elements . ... They should be introduced as year, month, day with tenth (e.g. 20021104.1). d) Computations are performed for all objects listed in the file whose path and name should be introduced into assigned data field. ... On pressing Edit file button user has a possibility to look through the list of object elements or their coordinates and velocities to add or to change it. ...
