The Astronomical Society of Australia has been asked by STANDARDS AUSTRALIA to compile a list of "designated" optical observatories that are valuable resources for (i) research, (ii) education and (iii) community use. The ASA is the final arbiter of whether any particular observatory is so designated. ... Upon receipt of your application form, your observatory will be entered on a list of "Pending Designated Observatories" on the ASA Home Page. ... It will be emailed for you. ... Email . ...

According to the # 7.1. of the Acting Statutes/Regulations on the International Astronomy Olympiad there should be an Authorized National Representative (Astronomical) Organization (ANRAO) in every participating state: A national astronomical society, a department (section) of the EAAS or IAU in the state, a leading observatory, an astronomical department of a leading university, a ministry of education or another appropriate competent institution. ...

... The algorithm has been successfully applied to both real and simulated astronomical data (Jefferies , 1993; Jefferies 1993) and its ability to accurately preserve photometry in the observed image has been demonstrated. ... In order to investigate the algorithm's performance without the influence of detector and photon noise we took the ``truth'' data set and convolved it with the given PSF to generate a noiseless image. ... The restored object and the two restored PSF's are shown in Fig. ...

... 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. ...

Next: CCD Scientific Performance Up: CCD Operation Previous: CCD Operation . A visible light photon releases only one electron-hole pair, and consequently many photons must be collected in each pixel for a measurable signal to be produced. ... This use as an imaging X-ray spectrometer requires that no more than one photon is incident on each pixel in any image frame, which imposes a requirement that image collection times be limited to ~seconds for typical astronomical applications. ...
