... VLBI Schedule . LBA Home Page . ... Observers Wiki . ... Main / . Parkes antenna control is via a command line program called atsnap. atsnap will run a simple schedule and can take commands to stow/unstow the antenna etc. ... Attenuation is done via the "loGUI" software. The VLBI backend consists of two "LBA DAS" which sample and filter the IF and the LBADR recorder which captures the sampled data, formats it in software and writes to local or remote disk (or streams for eVLBI). ...

... Within the XMM pipeline it is necessary to make a decision a priori whether a given exposure in an observation should be passed through the normal ``scientific'' pipeline. ... This decision is based solely on information readily available from the ODF (via the OAL), for example instrument mode, filter wheel position (except RGS), exposure duration, etc. ...

Next: Feature enhancement: local Up: No Title Previous: Feature enhancement: filtering . ... As a result, a common magnitude scale (contour lines on the maps above, or color scale on Fig.1) will poorly display the short-duration events in a signal. Normalizing each line of the map (fixed duration) so it has unit variance (in effect dividing the energy map by the mean energy spectrum) at each duration restores more details of small-scale activity (Fig. ...

... After the wavelength mapping and night sky subtraction, each 2D frame was corrected for atmospheric extinction and was flux calibrated. ... Finally, the 1D averaged spectrum was extracted from a 08 region along the slit, where > 2 ( is the dispersion of a noise statistics around this line) (see Fig. ... For the simultaneous derivation of C (H ) and EW (abs), and to correct for extinction, we used a procedure described in detail in Izotov, Thuan & Lipovetsky ([ 1994 ]). ...

Next: Caverns in Binary Systems Up: Ejectors in Massive Binary Previous: The Number of Ejectors . In the very first years after the discovery of radiopulsars, it became clear that for some reason they avoid forming binary systems. ... Illarionov and Sunyaev (1975)[ 76 ] noted the fact that coherent radiowaves with a wavelength longer than 75 cm, which make it possible to observe most of the radiopulsars, are absorbed effectively in the stellar wind of a normal star. ...
