... In order to obtain a quantitative estimate of the accuracy and reliability of our data reduction procedures and results, we have performed a data reduction pipeline based on the following steps: i) define a set of simulated HST-like images with synthetic globular cluster stellar distributions, which provide the ``true'' data for comparison; ii) convolve these images with appropriate assumptions of PSF and noise in order to construct simulated `` observed '' ... It contains 470 stars. b) ...
ST-ECF Instrument Science Report ACS-2006-02 Wavelength and Flux calibration of the ACS/SBC PR110L and PR130L prisms S. S. Larsen, February 2006 ABSTRACT Wavelength- and flux calibrations are presented for the ACS/SBC PR110L and PR130L slitless spectroscopy modes. ... Wavelength. ... Flux calibration Figure 5: Comparison of sensitivity functions for the SBC prisms derived from the inorbit calibration (solid curves) and the ground calibration from Bohlin et al. 2000 (dashed curves). ...

... Complex astrophysical phenomena could now be studied spectroscopically: the X-ray absorption line forest intrinsic to Seyfert galaxies; the interaction between AGN jets and intracluster media; hot winds of starburst galaxies; stellar coronal plasmas; the charge -exchange emission of Mars' exosphere; the X-ray irradiation of protoplanetary disks; and the myst erious flat-topped spectral line shapes of O star winds. ... We estimate that Gen-X will be able to detect and resolve 20, 000 stars in NGC...
CORES OR CUSPS IN ELLIPTICAL GALAXIES: LUMINOSITY OR ENVIRONMENT? ... The low lumi nosity disky galaxies have `hard' cores with a steep slope in the luminosity profile at small radii, whereas the luminous galaxies have `soft' cores with flat profiles at small radii (e.g. Faber et al. ... Coma Cluster cores In the gas/stellar continuum paradigm, one would expect that in the outer parts of a cluster it is more likely that the last merger was gaseous than in its central regions. ...
