... TEXAS SURVEY: THE PRELIMINARY -35 and stronger than 0.25 Jy is intended to provide accurate (one arc-second rms error) positions, flux densities and structure models for each of the ~70000 sources expected to be listed. ... Average rms position accuracy for point sources is 1" in RA and 0.5" in DEC. ... 1 is the source name in IAU format. ... Thus, (+1,+1) means the second most likely lobe is 51.8" LATER in RA, and 51.8"*sec(z) HIGHER in DEC than the position listed. ...

... In this section, we develop a physical model of the secondary as a disk that is centrifugally supported in the radial direction and hydrostatically supported in the vertical direction. We assume that the disk is vertically isothermal and well mixed. ... where is the mean molecular mass of the gas, is the orbital period at the outer edge of the disk in years, and all of the mass of the secondary has been assumed to be concentrated near its center, so the Keplerian approximation is valid. ...

... NICMOS data are represented by five arrays for each readout. ... Samples array. ... Each downlinked readout is always represented by these five arrays ( Figure 13.4 ). Multiple readouts in the same dataset (e.g., MULTIACCUM data) are represented by repeated sets of these five arrays ( Figure 13.5 ). ... For data where multiple samples of the array were obtained during the integration, the samples array denotes the number of samples for each pixel in the corresponding science image. ...

The overall efficiency (including atmospheric transmission, reflectivity of the telescope mirrors and overall efficiency of the optics and of the detector) for broad-band imaging should be about 25% in H and K, and about 15% in J. The main noise source for both broad- and narrow-band imaging should be the photon noise associated to the background+source flux. ... Flat fielding (and possibly background subtraction) might increase the noise by a factor 2 ? ...

The RHEA spectrograph is an instrument currently under development at Macquarie University in Sydney and is expected to relocate to MSO later this year. ... The new feed is intended to substantially improve the throughput of the telescope-spectrograph system through the use of Phase Induced Amplitude Apodization (PIAA), a beam shaping technique, and a multi-fibre Integral Field Unit (IFU) using a microlens array and single mode fibres (SMF). ...

... Radio emission at around 90 GHz from star-forming galaxies is expected to be strongly dominated by the free-free component due to ionising radiation from massive, short-lived, stars. We present high surface-brightness sensitivity observations at 90 GHz of the nearby star-forming galaxy Messier 66 with resolution of about 9 arcsec (corresponding to a physical scale of about 500 pc) and analyse these observations in combination with archival lower frequency radio and mid-infrared measurements. ...

... Over the first 4 years, its X-ray telescopes eROSITA and ART-XC will survey the whole sky with a record sensitivity in the 0.5-10 keV energy band. ... The goal of the second international Spectrum-RG conference is to discuss the different scientific topics addressed by the mission, synergies with surveys at other wavelengths, and requirements to follow-up observations.Contributed talks and poster presentations are invited on the topics related to the SRG science goals. ...
