From arxiv/astro-ph: 0707.1611 Probabilistic Cross-Identification of Astronomical Sources by Budavari and Szalay . As multi-wave length studies become more popular, various source matching methodologies have been discussed. ... Are there any power related studies on source matching statistics? ...

... Galactic coordinates are not yet calculated, but this can change in the near future. Currently preference is given to small sources over extended sources if they are present near the same coordinates. ... More work has to be done on the error estimates of source parameters. Countrates are estimated assuming that the source shape is a gaussian. ... This means that for point-like source we can in future calibrate the true countrates versus the wavelet countrates, for small wavelet scales. ...

In calculating the NIFS sensitivity, we adopt a read noise of 5 e - , a dark current of 0.01 e - s -1 pix -1 , and a maximum exposure time of 3600 s. Grating . ... e/pix) . ... OH Cont. (e/pix) . ... NIFS should achieve signal-to-noise ratios of ~ 10 per spectral pixel in a 0.1" 0.1" aperture for single 1800 s exposures on uniform, extended, continuum sources with surface brightnesses of J = 15.4, J = 15.0, H = 14.8, and K = 13.5 mag arcsec -2 using the Z , J , H , and K gratings, respectively. ...
