Next: Equations of condition Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Extinction and transformation . Bias can also be introduced by improper fitting procedures. For example, the reduction program known as SNOPY, used for many years at La Silla and also at La Palma, uses a simple iterative technique in which some subsets of the parameters are solved for, while others are held fixed; then the ones last solved for are held fixed, while the ones previously fixed are redetermined. ...

... Here is a brief outline of the current theory of the events in the early history of the solar system: . A cloud of interstellar gas and/or dust (the "solar nebula") is disturbed and collapses under its own gravity. ... The gas cools off enough for the metal, rock and (far enough from the forming star) ice to condense out into tiny particles. (i.e. some of the gas turns back into dust). ... Once the larger of these particles get big enough to have a nontrivial gravity, their growth accelerates. ...

... This planet-sized moon of Saturn had much of its south polar surface imaged during an initial flyby by the Saturn-orbiting Cassini spacecraft back in early July. ... Through this window, a brightly-lit workshop appears where a whole open cluster of stars is being formed. ... Prominent features include a small open cluster of stars, a diffuse red-glowing emission nebula, large lanes of obscuring gas and dust, and dense knots of dust and gas in which stars may still be forming. ...

Orbital elements of binary components in a hierachical system can be fit to either the visibility data directly or to the separation and position angle data. ... Then use Data|Astrometry to read a previously prepared file ("zetuma.psn") containing the positional data. ... Semi-major axis = 8.4214471 . Semi-minor axis = 4.7663976 . ... We can now use the Thiele-Innes method to estimate the orbital elements from this apparent ellipse and the data, as implemented with the Util|Orbit button. ...
