The actual amount of the dark rate reduction depends on the PHD of the dark counts in each observation, which varies between observations and with solar cycle activity. Because of the incredibly low dark rate on COS, the effect on most observations is very small. ...

This is a copy of a Press Release from E.S.O. The most recent ESO observations of bright Comet Hyakutake have shown rapid changes in the innermost coma, within a few hundred kilometres from the cometary nucleus. This result has only become possible because of the unusual combination of a bright comet being near the Earth, together with the excellent imaging quality of the ESO 3.5-metre New Technology Telescope (NTT). ...

Umbriel . Uranus II . Umbriel [UM-bree-ul] is the darkest satellite of Uranus. It is about the same size as Ariel and has about the same density. The surface appears to be old with large craters and does not change much from one location to another. Near the top is a puzzling bright ring called the fluorescent cheerio . ... Dark regions are represented as red and bright regions are represented as blue. The two white regions are bright ejecta from two fresh craters. ...

You will need to understand how to set file access permissions numerically before reading this section. Every time you create a file or a directory, its access permissions are set to a predetermined value. ... The values in the mask are subtracted from these values to give a default value for access permissions for the files and directories created by you. For example: 777 (system value for directories) -077 (value of the umask) --- 700 (default access permission of rwx------) . ...

This animation shows a binary star being lensed by a binary lens. ... The sharp changes in the size of the lensed images of the stars lead to sharp changes in the brightness of the stars, which can be analyzed to determine many parameters about the objects doing the lensing, even though they are not bright enough to be seen. ... The graph shown above gives the predicted and observed brightness of a star in the Small Magellanic Cloud being magnified by a binary lens. ... Tutorial : Part 1 | ...
