... Previous: A Posteriori Guidance for Astronomical Images . ... We present an original algorithm for the recognition of anomalous events in a CCD frame (i.e., cosmic hits, bad pixels etc.) The algorithm is able to distinguish between these events and real features by comparing the standard deviation and the kurtosis of a synthetic PSF, whose width is given by the user, and the corresponding values in a running window, whose size is chosen by the user, in the actual frame. ...

... Recognition of Anomalous Events S. Monai 1,2 and F.Pasian 2 1 Osservatorio Astronomico di Brera Merate, Italy 2 Osservatorio Astronomico di Trieste, Italy Abstract. We present an original algorithm for the recognition of anomalous events in a CCD frame (i.e., cosmic hits, bad pixels etc.) ... Raw images, as read from a CCD, are often a#ected by some events which are revealed by anomalous pixel values, i.e., single saturated pixels or pixels at zero intensity (also named hot or bad pixels). ...

... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

Next: Coordinate Systems Up: IRAF/PROS Previous: Other Types of Files . A few new features and enhancements to the standard IRAF system have been introduced with the PROS software: . ... Default compound extensions are used by the PROS tasks when no extension is given for the output file name. Most PROS tasks allow the output file name to be defaulted, with the convention that the output file name will be composed of the input `root' name, plus the default extension specific to the task. ...

Next: Reduction procedure Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Strategy . Standard stars can be included in the extinction solution, if one is careful. The problem is that there are usually appreciable ``conformity errors'' due to mismatch between the instrumental and the standard passbands [ 16 ]. ... Thus, it is wrong to assume that the transformation between the instrumental system and the standard system is exact, even if there were no measurement error in either system [ 1 ]. ...

A number of different choices are possible on WFPC2 in order to approximate the Johnson-Cousins system often used in ground based observing. These choices differ in throughput, wavelength fidelity, color transformability, and cosmetics. The HST science program as a whole benefits if a standard set can be agreed upon by the community for broad band photometry. ... These filters form the basis for the WFPC2 broad band photometric system. ... Space Telescope Science Institute . ...

... Standard magnitudes can only be computed for the U, B and V filters and hence the only standard colours that can be calculated are U-B, B-V and U-V. An important point to note, is that these standard colours can be computed using the following instrumental colours - U-B, B-V, U-V, (UVW1-U), (UVW1-B), (UVW1-V), (UVW2-B) and (UVW2-V). ... The program loops through these colours and if the relevant instrumental magnitudes are present computes the standard magnitudes and standard colour. ...
