... We describe the construction of convolution kernels that allow one to generate (multiwavelength) images with a common PSF, thus preserving the colors of the astronomical sources. We generate convolution kernels for the cameras of Spitzer, Herschel Space Observatory, Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), ground-based optical telescopes (Moffat functions and sum of Gaussians), and Gaussian PSFs. ...

... Up: Science Software Applications . ... It has extensions for creating GUI (Tk) and object-oriented ([incr tcl]) applications. Several Tcl-based tools that may be used for astronomical and other scientific applications have been created and are discussed. One example is ptcl , which registers PGPLOT functions as Tcl commands, creating a powerful interactive plotting package. ... Both programs use the same C code, Tcl commands, and [incr tcl] classes; only the GUIs are different. ...

... The extended project as the existing one aims to investigate, control and exploit the properties of interfaces between isostructural functional oxides for the realization of new nanosized electronic and optoelectronic devices. New participants will contribute to the characterization and understanding of physical properties of interfaces made of perovskite materials. In particular high frequency dynamical properties, fluctuation phenomena and dielectric spectrum will be carefully studied. ...
