... LMC Project Outline . NGC 1818 Initial Results . ... The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is uniquely suitable for the study of massive star clusters at all stages of evolution. By combining HST observations of these clusters with N-body models we hope to understand the origin and evolution of rich star clusters in our own Galaxy, in the LMC, and beyond. ... We aim to combine our HST observations with N-body models to understand the formation and evolution of globular clusters. ...

... Previous: Pipeline Processing and Quality Control for Echelle Data . ... On-the-fly re-calibration of HST data (OTF) has now been available at the CADC and ST-ECF for about 18 months. ... The calibration can only be executed using the calibration reference files which are available at that time. ... On-the-fly re-calibration has another advantage for our archive sites: we only need to keep the raw data and calibration reference files on-line for the process to be automatic. ...
