A typical radio dataset might be a 3-dimensional "cube" named AURORA, with axes RA, DEC and FREQ. ... These can be specified by giving the axis name(s) and grids for each subset. For instance, AURORA specifies the whole 3-dimensional ``cube''; AURORA FREQ 3 specifies the subset FREQ=3 (i.e. the RA-DEC plane at FREQ grid 3) of the set AURORA. ... Specifying only the axis name, and no grids, selects all subsets along that axis: AURORA FREQ selects all RA-DEC planes in AURORA. ... axis centre. ...

... Science . ... The goal is to bring together two communitities: the one working on star formation (mostly galactic) and the one working on the formation of young massive clusters (mostly extra-galactic). We will link galactic with extra-galactic work, optical/NIR techniques with sub-mm/mm/radio ones, the formation of stars with the one of massive star clusters - observations and theory. ... Coordinated by Marina Rejkuba (abstract) . ... How did star formation proceed in Globular Clusters? ...

... Description . Catalog . ... In the Catalog, we publish equatorial (ЮБ 2000 , ЮД 2000 ) and galactic (l,b) coordinates of cluster centers derived as the position of overdensity in 2MASS catalog (Koposov et al. ... Distances, color-excesses and ages are the mean-square values calculated using all available evaluations from different color-magnitude diagrams. ... There are individual pages for every cluster where all available plots and parameters are published. ... 2002). ...

M55 Color Magnitude Diagram . ... B.J. Mochejska , J. Kaluzny ( CAMK ), 1m Swope Telescope Explanation: This color "picture" of globular star cluster M55 may not look like any star cluster you've ever seen. ... In the picture, a Color Magnitude Diagram (CMD), M55's individual stars are represented as dots whose color indicates relative temperature, red (cool) to blue (hot). ...

... A document window is shown, with 8 lines (numbered 1 to 8), each 24px high. The text of the "outer" box (at the end of line 1, halfway into line 2, and halfway into line 3) is shifted upward 12px. The text of the "inner" box, thought shifted upward as well, has been relatively positioned so that it lies in its normal flow position at the end of line 2. ... The lines, as they appear in the image, contain: Start 1 Beginning of body contents. 2 of outer contents. Inner contents. ...

The aim of this section of the course is to enable you to use simple computer programs to solve a variety of common astronomical tasks. ... I have (somewhat arbitrarily) decided to use Python for this course, because it seems to be gaining popularity fast for astronomical data handling, and because some of you will have encountered it at the ATNF course. ... We've put Python (plus all relevant libraries) on the Stromlo Linux computers moron and maggot. ... Now log in to moron (or maggot). ...
