The following effects of the LSF are parameterized: ffl all geometrical distortions of the surface of the XRT shells ffl scattering due to reflection of the XRT ffl all geometrical distortions of the surface of the RGA gratings ffl scattering due to reflection of the gratings 1 First, these items are convolved and are parameterized as a function of dispersion angle, resulting in an initial function of an LSF. ...

... Analysis of the WFPC2 saturated star images indicate that the large angle scattering (>3" from a star) is significantly higher than expected. ... The first set was from the SMOV Ghost Check proposal 5615, in which 100 second images of d Cas (V=2.7) were obtained at the center of each chip in F502N. The second set was a series of 6 second exposures of Vega (V=0.0) centered on WF2 through F410M (WFPC2 GTO proposal 5205). ... The source of the WFPC2 scattering may be the CCDs. ...

Distribution of the speed w of ejecta (bold curve) relative to a platform moving with a horizontal speed of 1650 m/s and at an altitude h=30 km above the lunar surface. The assumed distribution of the ejection speeds at the surface is a power law with a low cutoff value of 100 m/s and an exponent of 1.2. ... The same conclusion holds for the speed distribution of particles near the surface. ...

... Contamination on optical surfaces degrades the throughput of an optical system. ... Contamination is particularly pernicious on the unprotected aluminum that is commonly used on the large first-surface mirrors of reflecting telescopes. ... During that period, the covers of their protective cases is opened whenever the 3.5-m telescope primary mirror cover is opened for nighttime observing. ... CO2 clean exposed mirrors in SS case. ... Light scattering measurements performed on cleaned mirrors. ...

... We describe the software tool bspec which models the dispersion and diffraction of light in the HST Faint Object Spectrograph. ... The HST Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS) uses blazed, ruled gratings and detectors that are sensitive over wide wavelength ranges. ... The program bspec has been developed to model the dispersion and diffraction of light in the FOS with an accuracy sufficient for the estimation of scattered light contamination in observed FOS data. ... We run bspec as follows: . ...

... The three optical trains for the cameras, and the pupil reimaging system, are mounted on a wheel, accurately driven by an external motor. ... The low-resolution spectroscopic mode uses the wide field camera and a suitable set of grisms and order sorting filters that are inserted in the parallel beam after the pupil. ... One of the five grisms can operate at four different orders, depending on the filter selected on the first filter wheel that acts as order sorter. ...

Phase Retrieval Measurements of Antenna Surfaces Using Astronomical Sources Bojan Nikolic, John Richer, Richard Hills Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory, Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, U.K. Abstract We present a novel technique for accurate measurement of the largescale errors in an antenna surface using astronomical sources and detectors. Out-of-focus images of compact astronomical sources contain a wealth of information about the telescope optics. ...

Watching the Detective Although a lot is happening during the seasons, the facts seem to fit together. ... From these facts, we should be able to figure out the cause of the seasons. ... Facts 4, 5, and 8 indicate that the seasons have something to do with the Sun. ... Although the angle varies by the same amount at every latitude (see figure 4 ), the effect of this variation on solar heating increases with latitude, a fact you can confirm with a little trigonometry (see Geometry of the Seasons ). ...
