Central Astronomical Observatory at Pulkovo of Russian Academy of Sciences PUL Analysis Center Pulkovo IVS Analysis Center (PUL) 2009 Annual Rep ort Zinovy Malkin, Natalia Miller, Elena Popova Abstract This report briefly presents the PUL IVS Analysis Center activities during 2009 and plans for the coming year. The main topics of the investigations of PUL staff in that period were ICRF related studies, computation and analysis of EOP series, and VLBI2010 related issues. ...

Next: Catalog Construction Up: Observations and Analysis Previous: Source Detections . ... It was assumed that the highest signal gives the most likely position of the source. ... Comparing the summed map with the maps from the individual energy ranges, the one which produced the smallest error box was chosen to represent the source position, as long as was greater than 4, a level chosen to reflect a reasonable degree of confidence in the detection. ...

Continuum sources in the list used for flux density calibration were selected in an ad-hoc fashion from a variety of places, but primarily from Kuehr et al (A&AS, 45, 367, 1981), the compendium of linearly polarized sources by Tabara & Inoue (A&AS, 39, 379, 1980), and an unpublished list of unconfused calibrator sources prepared from the NVSS survey by Jim Condon and Qi Feng Yin. ...

... The actual cross-correlations were done as follows: north of WGACAT was correlated with the GB6 catalog with a correlation radius of one arc minute. ... We therefore cross-correlated WGACAT with the GB6 and PMN radio catalogs with a 1.5 arcmin radius. ... As a result of this experiment, we then added to the WGACAT/PMN candidate list the 29 unclassified sources obtained from the 1.5 arcmin correlation and having PSPC offsets arcmin, ratio between X-ray/radio offset and positional error , and . ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...
