... The are two main sources of magnetospheric electric fields. The other is the solar wind related, dawn-to-dusk directed ("convection") field, and the other is the co-rotation electric field related to the rotation of the Earth along its spin axis. The electric fields have a strong effect on the drift paths of the magnetospheric plasma . ...

Take new sets of calibration frames if the temperature changes significantly.(or change the set you are using or the scaling if you are reusing calibration frames). ... You can also use scaleable dark frames called thermal frames. ... However, if you wish to reuse dark frames with images of different exposure times, you must turn the dark frame into a thermal frame by subtracting the bias information. ...

... The improvement will be more pronounced in our crowded Wide Field Camera (WFC) images, and may be increased further through use of a more sophisticated method of combining the individual dithered images. Our analysis allows us to check for point spread function shape variations in the HST Planetary Camera (PC) field. ... In crowded field images, we are deriving information about the faint end of the luminosity function (LF) from the texture of the image background. ...

This widget allows you to offset the telescope. ... Offset type : one of "Object Arc", "Object Arc XY" or "Boresight". ... This is motion on the sky or instrument, so don't worry about cos(dec). ... If you want to move that point (e.g. center your object along a different bit of the slit), then use a boresight offset. ... Note that a +X object xy offset will move the sky in the -X direction on the focal plane, because you are centering something in the +X direction on the boresight. ...

In this talk we will present a series of results and open problems emerging from the study of infinite global fields. We will give a survey of the asymptotic properties of the Brauer-Siegel and Euler-Kronecker invariants in the classical situation of number fields and function fields as well as in certain higher dimensional cases. ...
