... What work is currently being done to improve the flux calibration accuracy for echelle modes? ... Starting early in Cycle 11, monthly offsetting for echelle modes was turned off to minimize these types of calibration problems. ... We are currently working on redetermining the echelle flux calibration so that it is self-consistent with the 2-D scattered light algorithm. Time dependence of the sensitivity - Sensitivity-monitor data for the echelle modes are currently under investigation. ...

Statistics from S. Pesci and P. Mazza logbook. I began my visual hunting program in 1991, after some ten years of variable star observing and deep sky. My patrol galaxies were some one hundred circumpolar galaxies, which were suveryed with a 45cm home made Dobsonian. ... These are checked on average 10-15 times a year, during 35 to 45 nights (numbers depend much on weather), mostly on weekends and holidays. Since 1995 Piero Mazza has joined my search with his 40cm home made telescope. ...

... The star formation rate (SFR) of the current SF episode can be estimated from the total H luminosity. ... For the derived total flux F (H )=5.8 erg s -1 cm -2 we obtain a total H luminosity of 10 39 erg s -1 . ... The total mass of ionized gas can be obtained from the average mass density inside the H II region and its volume. An average mass density corresponding to the average electron density of 1 cm -3 within a volume with a diameter of 0.5 kpc yields a total ionized gas mass of 10 6 . ...

. The following is a list of the currently installed versions of the CIMA. The links refer to the CIMA version log page . Normal: version 3.0 - this is the next version of CIMA which has become the new default version --- NOTE that this version uses a new syntax for command file observations, uses new configuration files and needs source files with full velocity information . Old: version 2.2 - this is the old version of CIMA You can return to the main CIMA page by clicking here .

Next: Modes of Operation Up: CCD Scientific Performance Previous: Field of View . Thermal excitation of charge carriers from the valence to the conduction band creates a dark current signal which may vary with position in the array, and also has temporal shot noise variation. ...

... Files in red?history) . ... Auroral Currents . 25H. Birkeland Currents . ... As noted earlier Kristian Birkeland, reporting in 1903 on his expeditions to the auroral zone, proposed that magnetic disturbances accompanying the aurora were caused by large electric currents flowing down the length of auroral formations. ... In later years these currents became known as the auroral electrojets , and considerable debate ranged over their cause and the way their circuit might be completed. ...

Using a combination of instruments on ESO's Very Large Telescope, astronomers have discovered the most massive stars to date, some weighing at birth more than 300 times the mass of the Sun, or twice as much as the currently accepted limit of 150 solar masses. The most extreme of these stars was found in the cluster R136 in the Tarantula Nebula. Named R136a1, it is found to have a current mass of 265 times that of the Sun. ...
