Click here for a PDF version of Richard Berry's talk. Universe 2001: Results of Saturday Evening Imaging . ... Support data for calibrating the CCD consisted of eight bias frames and four 60-second dark frames. ... To rescue the images, we processed and registered the four 15-second integrations and the 60-second integration separately. ... The 60-second images were then registered to the composite of 15-second images to produce the image M11-COMBO.FTS. ...

... Planets . ... Exoplanets . ... After the discovery of powerful telescopes we were able to see further into our Solar System and discover many distant objects and dwarf planets.€а However within the last 16 years astronomers have started to dedicate much more time to the search of other worlds in orbit around other stars beyond the realm of our Solar System. ... However the closest star with a known exoplanet is the star Epsilon Eridani which is a mere 10.4 light years away from planet Earth. ...

Ground Support of RadioAstron . Control and Tracking Stations . RadioAstron satellite control (command transmission, telemetry, orbit measurements) will be conducted from Evpatoria and Bear Lake control stations. ... Coarse orbit measurements will be carried out from control stations. Each measurement takes ten minutes. ... Orbit measurements at tracking stations give only radial component of spacecraft velocity but the measurements are going continuously during observing sessions. ...

... An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Phenomena in Complex Systems . ... In this work the approach to recording, storing and associative retrieval of multimedia information is proposed. For this purpose the method for recording and storing the information on the trajectories of the nonlinear dynamic systems is used. Principles of recording, allowing to retrieve the desired record from the database of audio records by an arbitrary piece of the record we are looking for, are proposed. ...

Radio Interferometry Principles . Radio Interferometry Signal Processing . ... A radio interferometer consists of a pair of directional antennas that are tuned to receive radio emissions from a source in a desired RF band. ... The antennas are pointed at the radio source of interest and are set up to receive the signal and process it into a form suitable for transmission to the correlator. ... In connected element interferometry, the digital signal goes directly to the correlator. ...
