... At the operating temperature of -88 C, maintained after April 23, 1994, the WFPC2 CCDs have a low dark background, ranging between 0.002 and 0.01 e - /s/pixel. A relatively small number of pixels have dark currents many times the value. ... The combined file is obtained by using the superdark value for all pixels that appear normal in the weekly dark, namely, for which the dark current value in the weekly dark does not differ from the superdark value by more than 3 . ...

... New IRAF tools for the photometric calibration of optical/IR images are presented. The new tools are standard star catalog and world coordinate driven, requiring both accurate standard star catalog coordinate and accurate image coordinate data. Network access to standard star catalog servers is supported. ... The photometric calibration software will automatically convert the standard star coordinates from the standard star coordinate system to the image coordinate system. ...

... In 1930, Trumpler noticed that linear diameters (LD) of open clusters increase with distance (D) from the Sun. ... Since that time, the interstellar absorption has become one of the best studied factor in astrophysics, and we may hope that current OCL distance scales are free from this LD-D correlation. To verify if this is the case we have chosen several modern OCL distance scales and test them with the same clusters and the same angular diameters that Trumpler had used back in 1930. ...

Next: Standard orientation Up: Preprocessing Previous: Bias correction . In a similar manner, long dark exposures of the same exposure time can be averaged to produce the DARK frames. ... Use the command COMPUTE/IMAGE to multiply the images by the exposure time and to add back the value for FLAT_BKG . ... Often, BIAS and DARK contain no large - scale structure. ...

... 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. ...

... ALMA . ... OOF software . ... Software . ... We present a framework for modelling atmospheric phase errors and their correction by both the fast-switching and water vapour radiometeric techniques. Notable features are simulating three dimensional turbulent volumes instead of flat phase screens, considering three representative configurations of ALMA and parametrisation in terms of phase fluctuations on a 300m baseline, allowing referencing to the site-testing interferometer data. ...

The standard cosmological model currently fits a wide range of data spectacularly well. In fact so well that much attention is focussed on finding any small deviations from this model. In terms of the cosmic microwave background such features are often referred to as "anomalies" - there are several of them described in the literature. They might represent smoking guns for fundamental changes in our picture of high energy physics, or they might just be statistical flukes. ...

Solar Flare Origin - critical analysis" Lev Pusti'lnik We analyze current approach to solar flare origin in 3 aspects: a.

Flare energy release in turbulent current sheet and particle acceleration in this system. ...

We inform the variable-star community that the publication of the "Peremennye Zvezdy" (Variable Stars) journal, founded by Prof. B.V. Kukarkin (1909 1977) in 1928, is planned to be resumed by November, 2005. Currently it is possible for us to publish "Peremennye Zvezdy" only as an electronic journal. ... The main journal will accept original scientific papers containing theoretical results as well as results based on detailed analysis of variable-star observations. ...
