This thread illustrates how to evaluate if your RGS observation is affected by pile-up; if so, how to deal with it in some special cases; and how to prevent it occurring. ... Pile-up will cause two coincident first order . ... Thus, pile-up may differ between RGS1 and RGS2 and may abruptly vary between CCD locations due to the nominal event pattern distribution variations over the detectors. ...

... Our scientific interest is an accuracy of asteroid CCD observations obtained by amateurs and professional astronomers all over in the World. ... These data help us to analyse an accuracy of real CCD positions in the MPC Database. ... Do you test your observations of the small Solar System bodies permanently before sending them to the International Minor Planets' Center? ... Do you know a real accuracy of your positional CCD-observations in comparison with the other observatories' one ? ...

... There has been a heated public discussion in the past few years about whether our ninth planet is really deserving of the name. Since Pluto orbits a star, and is much less luminous, it certainly satisfies the definition we have above. The problem is actually not with Pluto, but with a very large number of other bodies in our Solar System which also satisfy this definition, but which are not called planets. Perhaps the most notable of these is Ceres, the largest asteroid. ... Planet . ...

The problem of solar wind data correlation for the observations onboard several spacecraft is very important for three points of view: . ... This problem is studied now in detail by systematic determination of ion flux and ion velocity data correlations by INTERBALL-1 (IKI group), WIND and IMP 8 (both - MIT group). ... Solar wind plasma correlation lengths from IMP 8, WIND and INTERBALL-1. ... Correlation of solar wind observations onboard several spacecraft: INTERBALL-1, IMP 8 and WIND data. ...

Next: CCD data Up: Special problems Previous: Marginal nights . If the program complains that you have negative intensities, this is usually due to misidentifying star observations as sky. ... Another problem with sky occurs when the program cannot find a suitable sky observation to subtract from a star datum. ... Finally, as the sky-modelling algorithm does not try to model twilight, it uses the ``nearest-neighbor'' method to correct star observations made during twilight for sky. ...

... The UK has a very vibrant solar system science community highly regarded internationally. ... The knowledge gained from such research has significant application to other STFC science areas, and indeed the science of other research councils. ... We therefore seek support to provide the 2012 Introductory Solar System Plasmas School, which will provide valuable training for the next generation of solar system scientists. ...
