... Let us define power spectrum, covariance and autocovariance statistics P , Cov and ACF : . The power spectrum is special among the periodograms in that it is the square of a linear operator and reveals the important correspondence between frequency and time domain analyses: . ... Let us consider which linear operators or matrices convert series of independent random variables into series of independent variables. ...

... Here T is the index set, is the spatial process, is a realization of the process. ... A usual spatial point process is defined as (i.e., the index set is the points of ) or [the number of points within A ]; (i.e., the index set is the units of ), where both and T are random. ... The most important application of lattice models is statistical modeling of spatial images, which is widespread in astronomical image processing (restoration, segmentation, classification, reconstruction, etc.) ...

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. ...

... As part of the initial data delivery, the observer receives a package of so-called paper products , which are intended to provide a quick look at the data in hard-copy form. ... The information is presented in three separate tables: Target List, Observation List, and Observation Statistics. ... First, they do not have the visit-level summary of observations; some of the information is available via the tape log, but without any data quality flags or image statistics. ...

Marc White . ... Turbulent entrainment processes may play an important role in the outflows from young stellar objects at all stages of their evolution. In particular, lateral entrainment of ambient material by high-velocity, well-collimated protostellar jets may be the cause of the multiple emission-line velocity components observed in the microjet-scale outflows driven by classical T Tauri stars. ...

Consequently, the calibration for data collected using the hipass 1320 and the hipass 1370 filters only will be mis-calibrated (i.e. by using the opposite polarisation calibration data). ...

It is a matter of common knowledge that in processes of genesis and evolution of many solar phenomena participate magnetic fields of sunspots. ... As a basis for formation of the database we take data on magnetic fields, collected by set of observatories during many years of observations. ... Section "Magnetic field data" contains data of magnetic field observation for separate sunspots, presented in standard text format (ASCII). ... Description of structure of these files is presented here . ...

Observation and modelling of main sequence star chromospheres. ... We compare our calculations to recent high res­ olution observations for selected stars in a narrow spectral range ((R­I) џ =0.875\Sigma0.05); we show that Hff line profiles behave as expected, with a tight correlation be­ tween the line width and equivalent width. ... We show that the hydrogen series dominate the radiative cooling in the spectral lines (form 40% to 90%) for Hff emission line stars. ...

... Our scientific interest is an accuracy of asteroid CCD observations obtained by amateurs and professional astronomers all over in the World. ... These data help us to analyse an accuracy of real CCD positions in the MPC Database. ... Do you test your observations of the small Solar System bodies permanently before sending them to the International Minor Planets' Center? ... Do you know a real accuracy of your positional CCD-observations in comparison with the other observatories' one ? ...

... An estimate the rotation period of cometary nuclei is important for understanding and describing the physical processes of the cometary activity. Unfortunately, the measurements of the rotation periods of the comet nucleus depend on the model assumptions and it is one of the main reasons for the scatter of the estimates given in various articles for a given comet. ... Right: the image of the comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 obtained at the 6-m telescope. ...

... If finddead =Y, embadpixfind looks for too dark pixels, rows and columns using the same algorithm (but reversed to look for holes). The statistics in a single observation is usually not enough to find any dark pixel, but dark rows or columns may be found. ... Whatever findbright , the very bright pixels (found at probathreshold squared) are looked for first (some are so bright that they can disrupt the more subtle row and column searches). ...

... The dayside auroral precipitation consist of magnetosheath related boundary layer precipitation, and plasma sheet related BPS/CPS precipitation (extensions of the nightside precipitation regions). ... For example, the much lower fluxes from the LLBL region when compared to the cusp are compensated by the bidirectional electron beams found in the LLBL: the precipitating energy fluxes in the LLBL and the cusp are not that different. ... directly through the cusp and plasma mantle . ...
