Next: Analysis in the Up: MIDAS utilities for Previous: Fourier analysis . For the detection of smooth signals, e.g. sinusoids, use either SCARGLE/TSA or AOV/TSA with bins. ... SCARGLE/TSA -- . Scargle sine model: This command computes Scargle's (1982) periodogram for unevenly spaced observations x . ... In this way, the command can be used to perform a CLEAN-like analysis manually by removing individual oscillations one by one in the time domain (see Roberts et al. ... AOV/TSA -- . ...

... If finddead =Y, embadpixfind looks for too dark pixels, rows and columns too. ... The maxratio parameter avoids detecting 'grey' pixels, rows or columns on observations with high statistics. Whatever findbright and finddead , dark and bright columns and rows are always searched for together in order of decreasing significance (either positive or negative). This avoids finding spurious bright columns/rows next to very dark ones, and vice-versa. ...

Accounting for Spatial Correlation in the Scan Statistic by Loh &Zhu [stat.AP:0712.1458] provides a picture that helps us to understand excessive false alarms in source detection when the image data set is based on the Poisson point process. ...

In brief: the frequency-dependent radiative transfer equation is solved for a dust under assumption of spherically-symmetric geometry for its distribution taking into account particle size distribution and quantum heating effects for the very small dust particles. ...

... There are compelling reasons for the pulsar community to utilise a standard data storage format. For example, standardisation of file formats significantly decreases the amount of effort required to integrate new instruments into the analysis chain. ... Accordingly, we have defined PSRFITS as a standard FITS-based format for pulsar data files. ... For example, the first line of Processing History HDU contains information about the data acquisition program and the initial structure of the file. ...

... A new IRAF task has been developed that automatically identifies linear (line-like) features in an image or set of images. ... In order to automatically detect linear features, the first step is to select pixels in the image (Fig. 1 , left panel) that fall within a given data value range. ... Another aspect of extended linear features is that the image space pixels that describe them are in some way adjacent to one another and have a minimum and maximum length. ...

... Statistic files are managed using file generation sets and scripts in the ./scripts directory of this distribution. ... Each valid update appends a line of the following form to the current element of a file generation set named peerstats : . ... This keyword allows the (otherwise constant) filegen filename prefix to be modified for file generation sets, which is useful for handling statistics logs. filegen name [ file filename ] [ type typename ] [ flag flagval ] [ link | ...
