... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... The absolute flux calibration of NICMOS will be calculated from observations of standard stars with known flux distributions F( ). ... In order to expand the set of IR standard stars in the appropriate flux range for NICMOS, M. Rieke, R. Thompson, and collaborators at the University of Arizona are making photometric observations of solar-analog stars, which will be used to normalize the solar spectrum to the observed IR magnitudes. ... Relative flux references accurate to 1.5% for standard...

... lccorr (lccorr-2.2.8) [xmmsas_20040318_1831-6.0.0] . ... A timeseries is created by evselect from an event list which includes events from the exposure/instrument/ccds of interest. ... Events outside of good time intervals (GTIs); . ... The pristine event distribution is however only a function of the first four. lccorr makes the simplifying assumption that the shape (as opposed to the amplitude) of neither the spatial distribution nor the spectrum of the events is time-variable. ... GTI selection ....

Next: Non-standard keywords Up: FITS keywords Previous: FITS keywords . ... The first group is translated into special MIDAS descriptors for the data structure in question. The conversion for image files is given in Table . The START descriptor of a MIDAS image refers to the first pixel and is computed from the values CRVAL and CRPIX for the reference pixel as given in the FITS header. ... Table: Name translation between standard FITS keywords and MIDAS descriptors. ...

... Standard Commands . ... TwistedActor.Actor is core code for writing an actor: an instrument control computer (ICC) or hub-based script that does something useful. This manual describes the standard commands and keywords that any actor based on TwistedActor.Actor will support. All actors based on TwistedActor typically support the following standard commands (plus additional device-specific commands documented in that actor's manual). ... Connect one or more devices (if not already connected). ...

... 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. ...

Following are instructions to build and install the programs in this distribution. Make sure that you have all necessary tools for building executables. ... The automatic build process expects a configuration file called Config.local . ... The configuration file specifies the directory in which to install the binaries, as well as control over the generation of debugging code and reference clock support. ...
