MRO Delay Line Timing Requirements for Control Loops John Young & The Cambridge Delay Line Team INT-406-VEN-nnnn rev 0.1 Cavendish Laboratory Madingley Road Cambridge CB3 0HE UK Objective To present our current best assessment of the requirements on delay and jitter for each operation within the cats-eye control loop. ... In tracking mode, the demanded position is a function of Universal Time: the delay between calculating the sidereal OPD and commanding the cats-eye must be known and accounted for. ...

... Keck spectropolarimetry, giving spectral coverage from Ly- to beyond CIII], and HST imaging of a sample of powerful radio galaxies with has been obtained. ... This is a short progress report on a rather extensive programme we are carrying out to study the structure and composition of high redshift radio galaxies (HzRG) -- and, by implication, the host galaxies of radio quasars -- using observations in the optical, IR and mm bands. ... An example of the NICMOS and WFPC 2 imaging is shown in Figure 2 ...

Flushes the command buffer of any queued MOVE pos vel time or MS.OFF time commands and leave the controller in the MS.OFF state. ... NOTE: The previous controller would set a status bit on an uncorrected fiducial crossing, and it ignored further corrections until a CORRECT command (manually apply the error) or a REMAP command is sent. ...

... Over the past decade and a half, astronomers have used both ground-based and space-based telescopes to discover more than 400 "extrasolar" planets. The Kepler space-based mission uses a technique called transit photometry to search for these planets. In January 2010 the Kepler mission team announced the discovery of five new planets. ... The ultimate goal of the Kepler mission is to search out the existence of Earth-like planets. ... A Collection of Resources to Get Behind the Headlines . ...

Compression versus noise When losslessly compressing images, the amount of compression that can be achieved depends almost completely on one simple factor: the amount of the noise that is present in the pixel values. ...
