To retry measuring the star, fix the problem (e.g. by adjusting focus, exposure time or offset) and press Continue . ... For each point in the az/alt grid the script will find and slew to a nearby pointing reference star, measure the star, write the pointing error to a data file whose path is displayed, and correct the pointing error. ...

Next: Imaging by an Optimizing Method . ... A big advantage of this numerical integrator is its stability: the error in the semi-major axis and the eccentricity depends only on the step size and does not grow with an increasing number of time steps. ... As the integration time increases, the numerical results become more contaminated by various errors. ... A new symplectic integrator produces no secular truncation errors in the actions of a Hamiltonian system. ...

I would several points which we faced during our everysolved for better quality of individual ACs' and EOP products · There are two main EOP products provided by two IERS Product Centers on Earth Orientation (Earth Orientation Center (EOC) and Rapid Service/ Prediction Center (RSPC)). ... However, the latter is not provided by the IERS. ... ITRF · Using ITRF in computation of EOP series produced by various ACs seems to be a necessary condition to provide the consistency between the IERS products. ...

... The first step to improve the FORS calibration is therefore to obtain data to allow a computation of the illumination correction across the field. ... Another limitation on the calibration accuracy has been the brightness of the Landolt standards which have forced the use of extremely short exposures introducing small but non-negligible shutter-time errors and also resulting in a very small number of useful standards per frame. ...

... Please note the following problems and workarounds: . ... Arrow keys . Arrow keys are used in SAOtng to move the mouse or markers. ... Unfortunately, error messages are generated if both sets are defined in the SAOtng code but are not supported by X. To get around this problem, we have added the -kbprefix command switch (and the SAOTNG_KBPREFIX environment variable) to SAOtng. This switch allows you to specify which arrow keys you want to use (assuming your version of X supports both). ...

... Low Polar Orbit . ... Different types of satellite orbits have different uses: while the synchronous orbit is best for communication satellites, Lagrangian point orbits help monitor the solar wind before it reaches Earth. ... Many spacecraft use such orbits, e.g. the US Air Force surveillance satellites of the DMSP series, or the series of French Earth-resources spacecraft SPOT . ... If the satellite then starts near a noon-midnight orbit, it will always pass near noon and near midnight. ...

Next: Results & Discussion Up: Coronal Hole Diagnostics out Previous: Introduction . ... The dates of the observations discussed here, their locations, pointing, slit sizes and exposure times are given in BTDW. ... Line fits are given by the dotted line. ... An estimation of the errors in the derived parameters was obtained using the GA-derived parameters as an input for a ``classical'' IDL-CURVEFIT procedure (Peter, 1999; Peter & Judge, 1999). ...

... Apache HTTP Server Version 2.2 . ... Additional functionality allows webmasters to configure the response of Apache to some error or problem. ... If a script crashes and produces a "500 Server Error" response, then this response can be replaced with either some friendlier text or by a redirection to another URL (local or external). ... Custom Error Responses and Redirects . ... In addition to these new variables, Apache will define REDIRECT_URL and REDIRECT_STATUS to help the script trace its origin...

... Moscow, Russia E-mail: krivosheev@iki.rssi.ru Notes: · · The Monte Carlo method (s) is also called the statistical test method An innumerable number of processes can be listed the outcome of which is not determined and has probabilistic nature, but these processes obey statistical laws, so to obtain the result we have to make multiple similar tests, i.e. to use the MC method Because probabilistic processes are widely spread in nature, the MC ...

Next: Conversion Up: Polarisation Previous: Polarisation Index . It is possible that there is a phase offset between polarisation which will effect the phase of the cross polarisation correlation, and so give rise to spurious polarisation. rotate_xyphase can be used to correct for this error. ... ASAP>scans.rotate_xyphase(10.5) # Degrees . Note that if this function is run twice, the sum of the two values is applied because it is done in-situ. ... ASAP>scans.invert_phase() . ...

... Mosaicing may be used in aperture synthesis to map large fields of view. ... A CLEAN-based method has been developed, in which the components are located in a modified expression. ... Mosaics . ... We present here a CLEAN-based method for the mosaic deconvolution. ... This is a basic problem in mosaic deconvolution: if we intend to apply CLEAN on , the risk of taking a noise peak as a CLEAN component is too important. ...
