Instrument Science Report NICMOS 2003-004 Measuring the Cold Mask Offset E. Roye, J. Krist, A.B. Schultz, T. Wiklind April 23, 2003 ABSTRACT An unexpected increase in measured thermal background during the Cycle 11 early calibration program caused speculation that the cold mask position could have shifted since Cycle 7. ... It was concluded that the cold mask position was not the cause of increased thermal background observed during the Cycle 11 early calibration program. ...

The overall efficiency (including atmospheric transmission, reflectivity of the telescope mirrors and overall efficiency of the optics and of the detector) for broad-band imaging should be about 25% in H and K, and about 15% in J. The main noise source for both broad- and narrow-band imaging should be the photon noise associated to the background+source flux. ... Flat fielding (and possibly background subtraction) might increase the noise by a factor 2 ? ...

In many cases you can safely ignore this error message, especially if it only happens once or twice at boot-time. For boot-time messages, look at the messages which are nearby for a clue as to what is going on. For example, if probing is going on, perhaps a probe for a physical device caused that device to issue an interrupt that the driver didn't expect. ...

This sequence of three images, obtained by NASA's Cassini spacecraft over the course of about 10 minutes, shows the path of a newly found moonlet in a bright arc of Saturn's faint G ring. In each image, a small streak of light within the ring is visible. ... Scientists interpret the moving streak to be reflected light from a tiny moon that is likely a major source of material in the arc and the rest of the G ring. ... That arc, in turn, leaks material to form the entire ring. ...
