The preliminary version of documentation of the format for the interchange of calibrated optical/IR data being developed by Tom Pauls of NRL and John Young of COAST was presented and a number of issues discussed. The proposed format is in the general form of a relational database with different components stored in FITS binary tables. ... Should there be a single data table type that includes all data types, or multiple table types, one per data type? What data types are needed? ...

A very important stage in a story of formation of any new science is the shift from discussion of situation which are possible but do not occur in practice due to some reason to recognition of real phenomena of interest. ... We suggest to consider computer viruses as this new specific form of life which is coming in the contact with our form of life. ... Computer life has been created by human being, the role of independent evolution of computer viruses seems to be still negligible. ...

Next: Summary Up: The Second EGRET Catalog Previous: Upper Limits for . In regions of the sky where two or more sources have overlapping point spread functions, it is often difficult to resolve the number of sources and their locations. ... As an example, Nolan et al.(1995) list a source 0445+62 at l = 146.89 , b = 10.65 , with a = 4.0 and a source 0500+59 at l = 150.52 , b = 10.25 , with a = 4.2. ... Both of these sources lie close to the threshold adopted for this catalog. ... 1995). ...

... Fig. 6 gives three sets of the azimuthally averaged profiles and the encircled energy plots. These are shown for (1) the PSFs (Image, Library, and Tiny TIM) for the image R136 F555W, and (2) the vicinity of the restored PSF star, centering on the PSF star with a radius 2 5, for the image R136 F555W, and (3) the PSF star area in the restored image of R136 F547W. The FWHM of the PSFs generated from different methods are all nearly the same (0 1). ...

Next: Biases Up: Contents Previous: Stars without Periods . Based on the data presented in Figure , I can suggest several conclusions about the evolution of young stars. The results of the Kolmogorov--Smirnov (KS) tests with the data presented here and those of Choi & Herbst (1996) on similar regions of the histogram indicate that there is something which holds stars near eight day periods. Stars in different regions also seem to share a similar mechanism which regulates the fast rotators. ...

A new CLEAN-type algorithm searches for model components not in the dirty image but in the multi-resolution wavelet transform of the dirty image based on the dirty beam. ... The improvement of this prototype Wavelet CLEAN, which does convolve with the dirty beam, can be attributed to a suppression of noise and aliasing in the dirty image by use of information in the sidelobes of the whole image domain. ...
