... Astrometry with the FGS, by contrast, proceeds in the reverse order; the positions of the individual objects are found first, and then a virtual plate is constructed with the help of data from the guide stars and check stars. ... Corrections based on guide star data are referred to as POSITION mode dejittering , and those based on check star data are called drift corrections . ... The adjustments to the astrometry centroids from this POSITION mode dejittering correction are typically about 1 mas. ...

... A document window is shown, with 8 lines (numbered 1 to 8), each 24px high. The text of the "outer" box (at the end of line 1, halfway into line 2, and halfway into line 3) is shifted upward 12px. The text of the "inner" box, thought shifted upward as well, has been relatively positioned so that it lies in its normal flow position at the end of line 2. ... The lines, as they appear in the image, contain: Start 1 Beginning of body contents. 2 of outer contents. Inner contents. ...

... This paper describes various methods for the analysis of spectroscopic data, particularly as they relate to wavelength calibration of echelle-format spectra. ... Keywords: spectroscopy, Hough transform, wavelet transform, robust regression, echelle, wavelength calibration . ... Wavelet transform can be useful in complementing robust techniques for multiresolution analysis, and Section 4 presents an application of the Mexican hat transform to the detection of spectral features. ...

... The first of the equations defines the position of the spectral orders, m , in the raw image, while the second equation gives, for each order, the dispersion relation in one dimension. ... where the coefficients are computed using least squares techniques on a grid , i.e. sample number and line number of points located within the spectral orders of the image. These points in the grid are found automatically by an order--following algorithm, normally using the FLAT or STD image. ...
