... Perhaps the most interesting satellites in this group are the ones sent into distant orbits, some of them extending well past the Moon--e.g. the WIND spacecraft pictured here. Among them is a long series of IMP s (Interplanetary Monitoring Platforms) which sampled the Earth's distant magnetic environment, the magnetosphere, and the surrounding interplanetary region; IMP-8 is still returning good data, more than 20 years after its launch. ...

... The J, H and K bands are characterized by a bright background, such a background is mainly due to the emission of atmospheric lines and of thermal radiation. ... If the source cover a large fraction of the slit, spectra off-source must be observed to adequately sample the sky background. ... The on chip integration time (time spent in each position of the slit) must not exceed 40 seconds in J and H bands and 60 seconds in K band. ... We suggest a sequence of 10 for each elementary integration time. ...

The following lines are used in this file: . ... The DEFS_LOCAL line defines global flags that apply to all machines. Ordinarily, the only flags included are the -DDEBUG , which includes the debugging code, and -DREFCLOCK , which includes basic reference clock support. ... D_INCLUDE_BSD_SOURCE . ...

... Galaxy Evolution home . ... The origin and evolution of radio sources . Radio sources and their environments . ... We are investigating how this interaction effects galaxy evolution in general as well as the feedback effect of the radio source on its host galaxy and AGN. ... One direct observational manifestation of this interaction is the existence of extended regions of emission-line gas which show a clear spatial relationship to the radio source itself. ...
