... Despite the wide spread use of the terms MTF, CTF, limiting resolution, minimum resolvable target, and contrast to describe CCD image system quality, the terms are often misused and their relations are little understood. ... The modulation transfer function (MTF) is a Fourier transform of the line spread function i.e. its equivalent as an integral sum of sine waves taken over the whole range of spatial frequencies. MTF by its Fourier nature can only be used to operate on sinusoidal frequencies. ...

Frob enius endomorphisms of linear spaces Alexander E. Guterman During the last century many efforts were devoted to classifying Frobenius endomorphisms of matrices, i.e., transformations preserving certain matrix invariants. The first result in this area was obtained by Frobenius in 1896, who characterized all bijective linear transformations on the space of complex matrices Mn (C) that preserve the determinant function. ...

May 2013 Update on APO Imager Proposal J. Huehnerhoff, W. Ketzeback (APO) In March 2013, a proposal for an imager on the APO 3.5m telescope was presented to the users committee. ... From this feedback it was determined that the most important properties of this imager should include good throughput, good spatial resolution, fast readout, and capability to use narrow band filters (both existing and new). ... The CCD allows many binning modes but 2x2 or 3x3 is expected to be used in normal operation. ...

... Suppose that an accreting plasma penetrates the light cylinder and is stopped by the magnetic field   at a certain distance given by the balance between the static magnetic field pressure and the plasma pressure. ... Otherwise, a centrifugal barrier emerges and the rapidly rotating magnetic field impedes the accretion of matter (Schwartzman, 1970a[ 173 ]; Pringle and Rees, 1972[ 164 ]; Davidson and Ostriker, 1973[ 38 ]; Lamb et al. ...
