... This calibration approach is recommended when dealing with high frequency data from the old ATCA correlator, especially at 3mm wavelengths. ... The approach described here exploits the dual frequency bands that were available with the old correlator. ... Rather the current approach assumes that you have a single Miriad dataset containing bandpass calibrator, phase calibrator, flux density calibrator and program source. ... MFCAL . ...

The <I> element specifies that the enclosed text should be displayed, if practical, in an italic font (or slanted). ... The <SMALL> element specifies that the enclosed text should be displayed, if practical, using a small font (compared with normal text). ... The <SUB> element specifies that the enclosed text should be displayed as a subscript, and if practical, using a smaller font (compared with normal text). ...

... I normally begin by asking the class what they think would be different if the Moon didn't exist, or if the Sun were closer to Earth, or if a star exploded nearby. ... The winds would be much stronger. ... In using what-if questions in the classroom, it is worth bearing in mind that students extrapolating the effects of new scenarios will encounter two different situations: direct changes to the new version of Earth and indirect changes resulting from the direct changes. ...

Next: Sky Subtraction Up: Construction of Flat Previous: Standard construction . For a number of projects where very deep integrations and accurate flat fields are required, and the targets are point sources or much smaller than the frame size, the sky background itself can be used to calculate the flat field. ... Use STATISTICS/IMAGE to calculate the image median, and COMPUTE/IMAGE to divide by this to get the normalised flat field. ...

... The parameter pgdev allows the user to specify a pgplot device, but, in contrast to the pgplot standard, the file name should not be included, but instead supplied via the parameter plotfile . ... To write a colour postscript file called op.ps: pgdev=/cps plotfile=op.ps . However note that at present, if a colour postscript device ( pgdev = `/cps'), a fits file ( pgdev = `/fits') or a ppm file ( pgdev = `/ppm') are selected, the task in fact bypasses pgplot and writes the postscript file directly. ...

... Routines for accessing I/O ports are in /usr/include/asm/io.h (or linux/include/asm-i386/io.h in the kernel source distribution). ... Before you access any ports, you must give your program permission to do so. This is done by calling the ioperm() function (declared in unistd.h , and defined in the kernel) somewhere near the start of your program (before any I/O port accesses). ... For example, ioperm(0x300, 5, 1) would give access to ports 0x300 through 0x304 (a total of 5 ports). ...

Target Acquisition Reference Information . Figure 7.1 on page 88 shows mean predicted count rates as a function of (B - V) 0 color for the four acquisition mirrors. Also shown are the fits to the predicted count rates for different amounts of reddening. ... You can estimate target acquisition count rates using the plots instead of Table 7.1 on page 92 : . ... Read from the Figures (depending on the mirror used) the predicted count rate. ...

EMERGENCY ENCLOSURE CLOSING . ... In general, emergency systems/procedures have been put in place for electrical power failure and/or for enclosure controller/ motor drive failure. ... In the event the emergency generator fails to start or generate power, use procedure 3.0 for motor drive/controller failure except, you will need to plug the 2 winches into the portable Kubota generator which is stored in the garage. ... AT EACH WINCH, PULL BACK THE HUB DRIVE TO RELEASE THE CABLE DRUM. ...

Next: Caverns in Binary Systems Up: Ejectors in Massive Binary Previous: The Number of Ejectors . In the very first years after the discovery of radiopulsars, it became clear that for some reason they avoid forming binary systems. ... Illarionov and Sunyaev (1975)[ 76 ] noted the fact that coherent radiowaves with a wavelength longer than 75 cm, which make it possible to observe most of the radiopulsars, are absorbed effectively in the stellar wind of a normal star. ...

... A scan of the superconductor-nonsuperconductor transformation in single crystals of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6 + x ( x 0.37) is done in two alternative ways, namely, by applying a magnetic field and by reducing the hole concentration through oxygen rearrangement. The in-plane normal-state resistivity a b obtained in the two cases is quite similar; its temperature dependence can be fitted by a logarithmic law in a temperature range of almost two decades. ...

... For a semple of red giants comprising about 2000 stars, the distributions of metallicity [Fe/H] are given. ... The center of the distributions of giants in both galactic poles is found to demonstate a statisticaly significant gap similar to the one found earlier for the late main-sequence stars. The implications of the metallicity distribution properties for the problems of the chemical evolution of the galactic disk are discussed. ...

... Enjoying the 2004 Transit of Venus from Stuttgart, Germany, astronomer Stefan Seip recorded this fascinating, detailed image of the Sun. Revealing a network of cells and dark filaments against a bright solar disk with spicules and prominences along the Sun's limb, his telescopic picture was taken through an H-alpha filter. ... With Venus in transit at the Sun's edge on June 8th, astronomers captured this tantalizing close-up view of the bright solar surface and partially silhouetted disk. ...
