Optical Filters . The polarizer quads were also designed to map onto a four-faceted WFC configuration and, consequently, also require a partial filter rotation of -33 degrees to move the filter quadrant 1 (nominal polarization angle 135 degrees ) into WFCs 2 and 3, with some vignetting of both camera fields. Several additional partial rotations have been added to allow observations with different polarization angles on the same CCD. ...

Galaxies are diffuse objects which are imaged against a background of finite brightness and noise. Galaxies which have the maximum contrast with respect to this background are the ones that are first discovered. ... These galaxies have been missed to date but active surveys for them are underway. ... In this page we present several examples of these newly discovered Low Surface Brightness galaxies as well as examples of high surface brightness galaxies. ...
