... With the ATCA beam at 3mm being comparatively small ( ), it is possible for tracking errors to be significant. ... In additional poor tuning of the antenna drive systems can sometimes cause poor tracking, particiularly soon after a change in source. ... Tracking errors are caused by flaws in the drive servo system, whereas pointing errors are a sum of tracking errors and errors in the antenna pointing model. ... The task uvflag can be used to flag based upon rms tracking error. ...

Next: Catalog Construction Up: Observations and Analysis Previous: Source Detections . ... It was assumed that the highest signal gives the most likely position of the source. ... Comparing the summed map with the maps from the individual energy ranges, the one which produced the smallest error box was chosen to represent the source position, as long as was greater than 4, a level chosen to reflect a reasonable degree of confidence in the detection. ...

... This plug-in enables you to add various types of lighting effects to your (RGB) image. ... Directional light . ... Well, you get the idea :) The default settings for this light-type is [-0.5,-0.5,-1.0]. ... Higher values makes your image reflect a lot of light (appear lighter or more intense), while smaller values makes it appear more dull or matte. ... A value of 1.0 makes your image very shiny (bright high-lights) while smaller values makes you image less shiny, making the high-lights dimmer. ...

... The actual cross-correlations were done as follows: north of WGACAT was correlated with the GB6 catalog with a correlation radius of one arc minute. ... We therefore cross-correlated WGACAT with the GB6 and PMN radio catalogs with a 1.5 arcmin radius. ... As a result of this experiment, we then added to the WGACAT/PMN candidate list the 29 unclassified sources obtained from the 1.5 arcmin correlation and having PSPC offsets arcmin, ratio between X-ray/radio offset and positional error , and . ...

... With enough velocity, a spacecraft can break loose from the Earth's gravity and enter an orbit around the Sun, like that of a planet. If it then orbits the Sun with the same period as the Earth--one year--it may keep a fixed position relative to Earth. ... If the distance is just right--about 4 times the distance to the Moon or 1/100 the distance to the Sun--the spacecraft, too, will need just one year to go around the Sun, and will keep its position between the Sun and the Earth. ...

... The source exhibits a mas-scale structure which, according to the USNO multi-epoch monitoring at 2.3 and 8.4 GHz over the period from 1994 July through 1998 April, undergoes considerable changes in the brightness distribution and positions of the major structural features.
