The VLTI Calibrator Selector Tool is a tool intended to assist in the selection of suitable interferometric calibrators for VLTI observations with MIDI and AMBER. It uses a model of the VLTI and its instruments to assess the fringe visibility, given the observed bandpass, the geometry, spectrum, and coordinates of the target and the time at which the observations are to be made. ... The tool offers an HTML/Java based interface and consists of two pages. ... The quality flag depends on LDD_chi2. ...

. This diagram illustrates the relationship between the reference pixel and device pixels (called "dots" below). The image depicts a high resolution (large dot density) laser printer output on the left and a low resolution monitor screen on the right. For the laser printer, one square reference pixel is implemented by 16 dots. For the monitor screen, one square reference pixel is implemented by a single dot. Return to image.
