... For a certain group of XMM PPS products (e.g. EPIC background maps, EPIC maximum-likelihood source lists, EPIC images, EPIC sensitivity maps) a list of commands is executed stored in an ascii file (hereafter check file). ... The tests include existence and parameter range checks for header key words and source tables columns of EPIC PPS Fits files. ... This check file performs existence and parameter range checks for EPIC PN, MOS1, MOS2 background maps in the energy bands 0,1,2,3,4 and 5. ...

... Exploring the physics of Type Ia supernovae through spectral analysis . ... Their progenitor scenario as well as the details of the explosion mechanism remain a mystery. ... It produces a supernova spectrum for a given luminosity, photospheric velocity, time since explosion and several elemental abundances. Tweaking these parameters to produce a spectrum that fits an observed spectrum is a complex, as of yet, manual task. ... The search space is large and complex. ...

... Observers may find that they wish to perform parts of the pipeline reduction again on their data using these tasks. Typical examples will be to re-perform cosmic ray rejection, altering the input parameters or using data from separate datasets, or to perform one-dimensional spectral extraction on long-slit data or to modify the input parameters (e.g., aperture extraction box, or background region) when doing one-dimensional spectral extraction for echelle data. ... Rectify spectral images. ...

The determination of the detector parameters is based on sets of images of a spatially uniform-illumination scene (flatfield frames) and without any illumination (dark frames), putting a plug in place of the filter, taken at a series of exposure times. ... We interleave before and after each exposure time in the series of flatfield frames a set of reference images at an exposure time of 1 sec to determine the possible temporal variation of the illumination level. ...

... A technique allowing automatic representation by a relatively small number of independent parameters based on the principal component analysis of data sequences is presented. ... In recent years the spectrum of observed astronomical data can be characterized as greatly varied. ... In this instance, the problem of initial description and classification of newly-observed data becomes most urgent, especially if there is a lack of preliminary observational material and theoretical expectations. ...

... Figure: Massive binary evolutionary track. ... A short glance to this track is sufficient to understand that there are a lot of evolutionary scenario parameters, which affect different stages of the binary evolution. Fortunately, a very limited number of parameters has effect on the compact binary merging rate. ... The most important (and practically unique) parameter changing the galactic binary NS merging rate is the distribution of an additional (kick) velocity imparted to NS at birth. ...

... The Miriad task uvgen can be used to simulate a variety of observing modes. ... Simulating a telescope approximately, let alone in some detail, requires a good many parameters. uvgen takes an appreciable number of parameters and input files to describe the telescope, correlator and source. Fortunately keyword and set-up files for some common situations exist ( e.g. simulating the ATCA and VLA). ... For example, to load typical parameters for the ATCA, use miriad% source $MIRCAT/uvgen.def.atca . ...

. Next: Formats of Tables Up: Object Search and Previous: The Classification . There are several keywords in the context keyword area which hold the values of parameters which control the performance of INVENTORY . They are listed here. Additional information is also supplied (separated by slashes): Keyword type --- Integer (I) or Real (R) --- and the maximum number of values stored by a keyword. A description is added following each keyword. Rein Warmels . Mon Jan 22 15:08:15 MET 1996
