... Several of the tasks in the spectral package share a common set of parameters. ... Each task in the spectral package has a hidden parameter which points to the pkgpars parameter file. The parameters stored here include the observed data sets and the model descriptor, and instrument-specific parameters. ... The observed counts and error data set contained in the table file ( *_obs.tab ) produced by qpspec will be the input data for subsequent spectral tasks. ...

... previous | GPI Data Pipeline 1.0 documentation . ... Observed Effect and Relevant Physics: . ... Image persistence is effect of the observed flux of previous images impacting the following observations as an elevated dark current (see Figure 1). ... Persistence removal is performed using the ?Persistence Removal of previous images? primitive. ... This primitive must not be run on flexure-corrected data as the persistence is derived from the previous image and will not change with elevation. ...

Next: M.E. Bailey, Director Up: Research Previous: C.S. Jeffery, Research Astronomer Contents . Dr Michael Smith has focused mainly on the earliest stages of stellar evolution: the processes leading to star formation from an initially unstable, collapsing cloud of gas, and the energetic outflows -- jets and winds -- associated with the formation and early evolution of protostars and pre-main-sequence stellar objects. ... Spectacular jets of molecules, however, betray its presence. ...
