Next: ANALYSE/ROMAFOT Up: The Interactive Path Previous: The Interactive Path . FIND/ROMAFOT frame [cat_tab] . This command works exactly like SELECT/ROMAFOT and therefore needs no detailed explanation. The only difference is that FIND/ROMAFOT , designed to select many stars, stores the positions of the objects in a catalogue table which has a different structure than then the intermediate table created by SELECT/ROMAFOT . This table serves as as input for the command ANALYSE/ROMAFOT . ...

... With autofs, you do not get (or even have the option of getting) browsable icons for the mount point of each automount map. ... The more major problem is that after going to one of those mount points by hand (command-shift-g), you can see a nice list of mountable directories (yay!), but when you click on them they don't mount; instead you get an error message. ... If the user has a hard drive they'll know about it, and look for it in a directory full of mounted volumes. ...

... As we mentioned, the Call for Proposals provides an overview of HST capabilities and describes how a Phase I proposal is to be prepared. ... If your proposal is successful, you will need to submit a Phase II proposal that provides all the specific details we need to ensure that your observations are obtained in the form you intend. This Handbook provides much of the information you will need in Phase II, with the proposal procedures themselves in a Phase II Proposal Instructions book. ...

Over the last year, the greatest development in pulsar research at the Arecibo Observatory has been the start of the main ALFA pulsar survey. ... A great example of the new, compact binary systems that ALFA can find is PSR J1906+0746. This is a 144-ms pulsar in a binary system with an orbital period just under 4 hours and a massive companion. ... One particularity of this system is that it is about 1000 times younger than the double pulsar , i.e., it is by far the youngest binary system known. ...
