... This is not important for drift observations but poses a problem for any observing mode in which the telescope is moving while taking data, since the ALFA beams then will be rotating on the sky. ... The new mode is called ' sky angle tracking ' and is available for all existing observing modes. ... The next figure shows the distance between the beams in declination as a function of hour angle when the telescope is tracking a source with Dec=+10 from rise to set with a sky angle of 19 degrees. ...

These values are compared to the observed H II region luminosities, yielding an estimate for the mean fraction of H-ionizing photons that escape the local nebulae in this sample. We formally estimate that, overall, 0-51% of the ionizing radiation escapes the local H II regions and is available to ionize the warm, ionized medium in the LMC. ...

... Meta Index / Home Page / Description / Specifying source region shapes . When radiusstyle =`contour', the task calculates the source region shape as an elliptical locus which approximates the contour of the PSF at a given flux value. ... Clearly, in order to calculate the shape of such a flux contour, it is necessary firstly to normalize the PSF to the source brightness and secondly to determine the flux level (in `brightness' units per pixel) at which to find the contour. ...
