... Colors of Sunlight . ... Isaac Newton showed that not only can a triangular prism separate a beam of sunlight into rainbow colors (that had already been known), but also that, when a second prism brings the different colors together again, white light is once more obtained. Therefore white light is a combination of all the rainbow colors, and the prism separates its colors because the angle by which a beam of light is bent, when it enters glass, differs from one color to the next. ...

... Since the fast mode window is necessarily small, the source PSF fills much of the window (clearly evident for bright sources). ... As such, the source and background extraction apertures may be truncated by the window. ... While often there will be only one object in the image, one should check for spurious detections which could affect the analysis of the target source and also for missed sources or prominent objects in the window, which may contaminate the target. ...

... A radio galaxy is a galaxy that emits an unusually big amount of energy at radio wavelengths. ... Inside of each galaxy with an active nucleus (radio galaxies are among them) there must be a system of a "central machine" responsible for the colossal amount of the emitted energy from radio to gamma ranges. ...
