... This thread contains a step-by-step recipe to extract MOS spectra of a point-like source observed in Imaging mode and to create associated response matrices, starting from a calibrated, concatenated event list (either produced with emproc or available as PPS product; here it has the assumed file name MOS.fits ). ... The users should note that the SAS metatask xmmselect allows them to interactively define source and background regions (via ds9) and to run backscale on the fly. ...

... This section will deal with obtaining photons within specified regions of an image. Available regions are: Annulus Box Circle Ellipse Field -- entire field Irregular region based on intensity of map... i.e. region defined by contour levels. ... The imcnts task in the xray-spatial package sums the source and background counts in specified regions, and subtracts one from the other properly normalized. ... imcnts* - Find counts in an extended region, after removing an embedded point source . ...

... The close proximity of the Magellanic Clouds allows us to probe the nature of these star forming regions at small spatial scales. ... We present the spatial analysis, via aperture/annulus photometry, of 16 Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and 16 Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) H II region complexes using the Spitzer Space Telescope's IRAC (3.6, 4.5, 8 ЮМm) and MIPS (24, 70, 160 ЮМm) bands. ... The IRAC, MIPS, UV, and HЮБ spatial analysis are compared with the spatial analysis of the TIR. ...

... To move toward open analysis software, we plan to make the PROS regions subsystem available from processes outside of IRAF. We also plan to make the region descriptor parsing system available for purposes beyond the creation of masks, such as an interface to an image display program, accepting a region descriptor and generating commands to display the region on an image. ... Anticipating two kinds of new requirements, we reconsidered the design of the PROS region descriptor processing subsystem. ...

Next: Reduction Strategies Up: Image Data Concepts Previous: Image Coordinate Systems . ... The task parameter, region , which gives the region-of-interest consists of a combination of subcommands. ... Subsequent image coordinates are relative to the reference pixel, as defined by the header of the map of interest. ... Subsequent image coordinates are given in arcseconds, and are relative to the reference pixel of the map of interest. kms . ...

This diagram illustrates two block boxes, one above the other, with rectangular clipping regions of different dimensions. ... Both axes depict increments of 5px. The clipping region of the first P box lies entirely within it, offset 5px from the top and left edges of the P box, and 10px from the right and bottom edges. ... The clipping region of the second P box resembles that of the first in style and position, except that the right edge is 5px to the right of the P box's right edge. ...

... Science Users Information > Science Activities > PhD Thesis Topics offered by ESO Faculty Members > Thesis Topic: Planetary Nebulae and HII regions in the Elliptical Galaxy NGC 5128 . ... NGC 5128 is the closest example of a giant early type (elliptical or S0) galaxy. Although often dubbed as a peculiar elliptical galaxy since it has a dust lane with recent star formation and an active galactic nucleus, the majority of early type galaxies have similar structures as revealed by recent surveys. ...

The Earth's magnetosphere global structure is conditioned by the interaction of the Solar wind and Earth's magnetic field. ... Solar wind (SW) - the region outside BS; . ... Auroral field lines (AUR) region - the funnel-shape cavity restricted by the geocentric distance of the order of 6 RE, between surfaces formed by magnetic field lines emerged from the polar and equatorial OVAL borders; . ...
