... The SF does not contain all the information required to process the ODF with the SAS. odfingest extends the SF with data extracted from the instrument housekeeping data files and the calibration database. It creates a new summary file: the SAS ODF Summary File (SOSF). ... The user need not have write access to the ODF directory. odfingest uses the parameter outdir to learn where to write the SOSF. ... Alternatively, the name of the SOSF can be passed to odfingest with the parameter summaryfile . ...

... It was designed to observe the solar wind approaching Earth, from a position near the Lagrangian point L1, and it is part of the International Solar-Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) Initiative . ... The original plan called for "Wind" to approach its final station over two years, undergoing two close encounters with the Moon to boost its speed. ... If however the object is moving , the encounter is not symmetric, and in the end the spacecraft may have gained or lost speed, depending on its trajectory. ...

However, apart from a few cases the keyword setting itself is not modified: principally, keywords can only be changed by the SET/CCD command. ... After (partially) having finished a CCD reduction the user may want to store the current keyword setting. ... The keyword setting can be restored by the command INIT/CCD red_table , where red_table is the reduction table containing the CCD keyword setting, previously saved. ...

... 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. ...
