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 ]. ...

Next: HKPARMINT Up: Generation from In-Orbit Data Previous: Wavelength calibration Contents . Spectroscopic Standard stars, mainly white dwarfs, were observed with both OM grisms. The ISF is obtained by dividing the extracted spectrum, in count rate versus wavelength, by the standard flux of the star obtained from HST Calspec database. The results obtained from several stars are then averaged and the standard deviation is taken as the error in the ISF. ...

The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

Emission Line Diagnostics in a ``No UV Bump'' Quasar PHL909 Smita Mathur, Belinda Wilkes, Martin Elvis and Jonathan McDowell Abstract PHL909 is a quasar with unusually low ultraviolet luminosity (blue bump strength C UV=IR = \Gamma0:20 compared to an average value of 0:4 (McDowell et al. ... The intrinsic continuum of PHL909 ( i.e. as seen by the BELR ) may thus be similar to the `standard' continuum, with a big blue bump, reddened along the line of sight. ...

Next: Examples of Setup Files Up: Setup Files Previous: Setup Files Contents . Over 200 standard setup files have been created, covering many of the normal modes of observing. ... These especially include precisely defined, and somewhat complex cases like the Mark III standard modes (although MarkIII went the way of the dinosaur long ago. ... v '' files: . These are setup files for VLBI observations using VLBA recording formats. ... These are setup files for Mark III observations. ...

Next: THE SOURCE LIST Up: Spectral-Line Observing at AO Previous: THE RADAR BLANKER . ... You also need to decide how you want this correction to be applied - to the center of each correlator board or to the four boards as a whole (thereby preserving the topocentric frequency offset between the boards). Typically, this choice depends on whether each board is centered on a known spectral line, or if you are doing a search in velocity space for an object. ...

... We present a proposed standard for data dictionaries associated with catalogs being accessed through the Astrophysics Data System (ADS) Mosaic Catalog Service. Each catalog made available for searching must have a data dictionary, which consists of a set of specified keywords describing format, content and location of data. ... There are two keywords in the Table Data Dictionary which indicate to the server software that the corresponding column contains special attributes. ...

Last updated 5 November 2003 by JMD . Last link checked 9 October 2003 by JCB . Data from 191 observations of stars with the ARCES were analyzed to calculate exposure times to reach particular signal-to-noise values for bright standard stars. ... An exponential fit to the data shows pretty good agreement and allows for forecasting to fainter stars beyond the limit of the data set ( V ~ 12). The fit was used to calculate the exposure times in the table below: . ...

... The material in "From Stargazers to Starships" meets several important requirements of the national standards. Pages cited below are from National Science Education Standards National Academy Press, Washington 1995. ... For example: the sections on astronomy not only describe calendars and sundials (including their construction), but also the astronomy of the ancient Greeks, including two different ways in which ancient Greeks estimated the distance to the Moon. ...

... every new catalog of objects has to be contained in the UNIX directory having the same name as the catalog of objects; . ... the programs for local operations (programs of low level) with the catalog of objects are also in the same directory; . brief characteristics and names of the programs and file with the description of the catalog are stored in the file cats_descr ; . ... All astronomical catalogs have a different format and list different observables. ...

Databases (NSDC) of the Natural Planetary Satellites. ... NSDC: Database of astrometric observations of Natural Planetary Satellites . ... They are thoroughly looking for observations in different sources, creating their owndatabases which are then mostly inaccessible to other researchers. ...
