The WFPC2 cameras have significant geometric distortion which not only affects astrometry, but also affects photometry (because it induces an apparent variation in surface brightness across the field, and hence impacts the flat fields). ... The pixel scale can be estimated from the commanded offsets between the frames (relying on the FGS scale and distortion calibrations). ... The cubic distortion coefficients can be used to derive effective pixel areas as presented in Figure 5.16 . ...

Position Switching Separation Tolerance with Arecibo in L-Band Travis McIntyre The University of New Mexico July 2010 Revised December 2013 Abstract The blocked telescope aperture at Arecibo creates standing waves in the bandpass around 1MHz. ... Test observations with Arecibo in L-Band show that position switching effectively removes standing waves for separations of one half FWHM or less. Standing waves remain for separations of one FWHM, increasing the rms of the baseline by 20%. ...

This New Horizons LOng Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) composite image shows the detection of PlutoтАЩs largest moon, Charon, cleanly separated from Pluto itself. Pluto is the brighter object near the center, and Charon is the fainter object near its 11 oтАЩclock position. The circles denote the predicted locations of the objects, showing that Charon is where the team expects it to be relative to Pluto. No other Pluto system objects are seen in these images. ...
