... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

To run a process in the background as a job and carry on working add an (ampersand) at the end of the command line. ... The shell forks a child process to run the command and displays the job number ( [ n ] ) and the PID (Process IDentifier) number. ... If the command is likely to produce error messages you will need to redirect standard error. ... Do not run an interactive command that requires you to type something at the terminal as a background job. ... You will then have to kill its process . ...

... The pinhole simulation program is a computationally and memory intensive task. ... A parallel version was developed instead, to enable distributed processing on a cluster of workstations. The program makes use of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) standard for parallel processing, implemented as an API (Application Programming Interface) to the Local Area Multicomputer (LAM) programming environment developed at the Ohio Supercomputer Center. ...

... There are compelling reasons for the pulsar community to utilise a standard data storage format. For example, standardisation of file formats significantly decreases the amount of effort required to integrate new instruments into the analysis chain. ... Accordingly, we have defined PSRFITS as a standard FITS-based format for pulsar data files. ... For example, the first line of Processing History HDU contains information about the data acquisition program and the initial structure of the file. ...

... Although many of the images are used for teacher-driven activities, students do have the opportunity to work with scientists on original research projects. ... The primary goal is to have teachers experience astronomy research and then to bring the research data into their classrooms via the internet. ... They also learn how to process their data, build a solar telescope to take home to their classrooms, and learn background information from astronomers in each of the three research areas. ...

Next: Reduction procedure Up: Extinction and transformation Previous: Strategy . Standard stars can be included in the extinction solution, if one is careful. The problem is that there are usually appreciable ``conformity errors'' due to mismatch between the instrumental and the standard passbands [ 16 ]. ... Thus, it is wrong to assume that the transformation between the instrumental system and the standard system is exact, even if there were no measurement error in either system [ 1 ]. ...

... Standard Commands . ... TwistedActor.Actor is core code for writing an actor: an instrument control computer (ICC) or hub-based script that does something useful.
