... The GHRS has the usual components of an astronomical spectrograph: entrance apertures, a collimator, dispersers, camera mirrors, and detectors. ... The collimator and camera mirrors are unexceptional and need no further description here (see ``The HST Focal Plane and the GHRS Apertures'' on page 73 for details). ... The first two first-order gratings, G140L and G140M, have their spectra imaged by mirror Cam-A onto detector D1, which is optimized for the shortest wavelengths. ...

... The procedure of radiometer signal integration can be considered as a sort of reducing dimension of the initial sampling space, where the samples are the result of analog-to-digital conversion. ... The probability distribution of the signal and spikes is completely known. ... The quality of the considered algorithm could be also illustrated by Figure 2 . ... One could see the considered adaptive algorithm is preferable even by low degree of compression, because all spikes have been depressed. ...
