... The sky background can contribute significant Poisson noise in broad and medium band filters, and must be taken into account during noise calculations. The actual sky brightness depends on the heliocentric ecliptic coordinates (latitude and longitude) in a manner summarized in Table 6.3 . ... For many targets LOW-SKY will have minimal impact on the observing efficiency. ... Table 6.4 shows approximate sky count rates for the WFC and PC1 for filters with significant sky count rates. ...

Next: AXAF Recipes Up: ROSAT HRI Recipes Previous: Quantum Efficiency Correction (a.k.a. For some observations, a significant amount of data may have been rejected during SASS processing because the background level was higher than the calculated threshold for rejection. ... REJECTED EVENTS . ... The recipe will allow the user to include rejected events in the generation of a new qpoe file and filter on the background level. ... This creates a qpoe file with standard + rejected events. ...

... 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. Our goal was to recreate the algorithms used by the Level One Processing to create exposure masks and background maps for Einstein Image Proportional Counter (IPC) data (cf. sections 2.5 and 2.7 of Harnden et al. ...

Galaxies are diffuse objects which are imaged against a background of finite brightness and noise. Galaxies which have the maximum contrast with respect to this background are the ones that are first discovered. ... These galaxies have been missed to date but active surveys for them are underway. ... In this page we present several examples of these newly discovered Low Surface Brightness galaxies as well as examples of high surface brightness galaxies. ...

... What a can of worms I opened up when I first showed this example of how to make a button using the Lighting Effects filter! There's two ways to do this, the easy way, (for Macintosh only), and the hard way. ... First, the easy way. ... It allows you to take a rectangular selection, and either darken or lighten it by a certain number of pixels, either as a gradient or as a solid bar. ... Make sure your foreground is white, and your background is black. ... Here's another use for the Gradient tool. ...

... The Galactic low-mass X-ray binary GS 2023+338 was discovered during the burst on May 22, 1989 with the Japanise satellite Ginga (aka Galaxy). The flux reached 17 crabs (this unit of flux measurement is an bright X-ray source, Crab Nebula) at 10-35 keV. ... No other radio telescope worldwide carried out multi-frequency measurements. ... Upon 14 days the radio flux fell below the detection level at the RATAN-600 in relation to the decrease of the X-ray flux. ...
