... The exact directions of the offsets are parallel to the rows and columns of the CCD on which the aperture is specified. ... It is often useful to explicitly specify the desired rotation of the WFPC2 field-of-view on the sky. ... Figure 7.8 shows the CCD orientation and aperture locations relative to the U3 axis. ... Obtain the Position Angle (PA) of the source axis on the sky, measured in the standard way, North through East. ... desired source angle in field-of-view measured CW from +U3 axis) . ...

A typical radio dataset might be a 3-dimensional "cube" named AURORA, with axes RA, DEC and FREQ. ... These can be specified by giving the axis name(s) and grids for each subset. For instance, AURORA specifies the whole 3-dimensional ``cube''; AURORA FREQ 3 specifies the subset FREQ=3 (i.e. the RA-DEC plane at FREQ grid 3) of the set AURORA. ... Specifying only the axis name, and no grids, selects all subsets along that axis: AURORA FREQ selects all RA-DEC planes in AURORA. ... axis centre. ...

Region markers can be moved, resized, rotated, zoomed, deleted, and can change geometric type. ... For example, markers placed on astronomical catalog positions should be fixed so that one cannot accidentally move them off the specified position. ... Parameters can be fixed using the fix option of the regions public access point (for fixing classes of markers) or by means of a fix keyword in the definition of an externally loaded marker. ... In the command: echo "regions fix all -position -size" | ...

Allows you to specify a drift scan: motion at a constant velocity along a great circle. ... The path starts at the new object position (though the telescope actually intersects the path later, see Subtleties ). ... Note that the units are always /sec for both axes. ... The velocity along the path is 0.01 /sec. ... The path is assumed to start when you hit the Slew button (more precisely, when the TCC parses the command). However, it takes the telescope awhile to slew to meet the specified path. ...

... If positions are supplied in a FITS table, specified by the parameter intable , the transformed positions are written to the FITS table designated by outtable . ... The task looks for the sky-position information stored in decimal degrees in columns named RA and DEC . If uncertainties are desired, esky2det looks by preference for data of the same format in RA_ERR and DEC_ERR columns; if neither column is found, esky2det looks for a common value in arcseconds stored in a column named RADEC_ERR . ...

... Up: Description of program searchdup Previous: Program use . Input records are ordered per date of observation, and the list of known (observed) sources is cleared. Each record is compared in position to all the known sources. If the sky distance is less or equal to the specified one, the record is added to the list of observations for that source. If no known sources are within the specified radius, a new source is created, with the coordinates of the observation record. ...

This WWW form allows the user to list selected portions of the NRAO/VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) radio source catalog. ... Until the completion of the survey the source catalog will NOT cover the entire region of the survey and care must be exercised in interpreting the results of a catalog search. ... The second parameter in the "Search radius" box or one of the optional items in a position list can be used to specify a region in which to look for other sources. ... An example of a position list entry is: . ...
