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). ...

... This paper describes the main algorithms used by the Einstein Level One processing to create the exposure masks and the background maps for Einstein IPC images, and how these algorithms were recreated in the IRAF environment.

In this section, we study the evolution of stellar populations on a time-scale of 10 Myr for a starburst љ occurring under conditions similar to those in the Galactic Center (see Lipunov et al. (1995d)[ 126 ]). We estimate the expected number of X-ray transient љ sources (NS + MS star), super accreting BH, and BH + supergiant binaries, all as functions of time elapsed after the burst. ...
