... User Guide ] Task: early Purpose: Flag data which has early/normal problems. Categories: calibration, uv analysis EARLY is a Miriad task which flags visibility data that it suspects contains early/normal problems. ... If the scatter exceeds some number of sigmas, then the data are assumed to be affected by the early/normal problem, and the entire record is flagged. ... If the signal is noise dominated, no early/normal problems can be detected, and the data will not be flagged. ...

Dust in galaxies can be mapped either by the FIR/submillimeter emission, the optical or infrared reddening of starlight, or the extinction of a known background source. ... We find that distant galaxies are predominantly in low-extinction sections marked by the color maps, indicating that their number depends both on the cloud cover of Spitzer-resolved dust structures, mostly the spiral arms, and a diffuse, unresolved underlying disk. ...

... Briefly, the count rate at the detector from a source at a redshift z is . ... Another possible way that could lead to arising diverse peculiarities in the - distribution induced by the sources evolution is connected with a possible non-monotonic character of the star formation rate in galaxies. ... The most prominent feature of the obtained theoretical - is a notable sharp increase at low count rates due to evolutionary effects. ...

. Note: This material is from a 1994(!) Talk about CCDs - the physics remains the same, only the detector size has increased since then. ___________________________________________________________________ The Electronic Universe Project e-mail: nuts@moo.uoregon.edu

... Galaxies . ... A team of astronomers has used ALMA (the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) to pinpoint the locations of over 100 of the most fertile star-forming galaxies in the early Universe. ...

The ALMA and APEX observations, at submillimetre wavelengths, are overlaid on an infrared view of the region as seen by the IRAC camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope (coloured blue). €а Credit: ...

... NGC 1818: Pick A Star . ... Early on Saturday, May 31 (UT) the new Moon will once again slide across the Sun's fiery disk, and once again an annular solar eclipse will be the result -- since the Moon's apparent diameter will be a little too small to completely cover the Sun. ... Eclipsed Moon and Stars . ... Half-shadowed by the Earth, the Moon takes on a remarkable appearance against a field of stars in this intriguing telephoto picture recorded during a partial phase of last week's lunar eclipse. ...

... Early studies of PMS stars focused on T associations, especially Taurus-Auriga. However, one might expect low mass star formation to be different in OB associations. ... He identified Orion OB1a as the stars northwest of the belt. Orion OB1b is composed of the stars near the belt, including the belt stars and Orionis. ... He finds no perceptible distance change within the Orion OB1b association and finds the distance modulus to be 7.8 and 7.9 for Orion OB1a and OB1b respectively. ...

... Time-dependent diffusion of Fe compared to the equi- librium stratification for a model with T eff = 10 000 K, log g = 4.0 and a magnetic field of 10 kG strength, inclined by 60 with re- spect to the surface normal. ... The dash-dotted line gives the equilibrium stratification - the radiative acceleration of Fe is equal to 4.0 throughout the atmosphere. ... Numerical modelling of surface abundance distributions in ApBp star atmospheres constitutes a challenging astrophysical problem. ...

... Your main research interests lie in QSO absorption-line systems. ... The trouble with trying to see galaxies in the early universe is that all you can see will generally be stars. ... Well, most of the universe is made up of dark matter and gas: stars are only a trace impurity, even today. And in the early universe, before most of the stars have formed, stars must be an even less significant component of the universe. It clearly makes far more sense to study the gas in the early universe. ...

... Take a particularly simple signal: a cosine wave. ... Now, we are going to stretch and shrink the wavelet along the time axis (we assume the data is in the time domain), and at each time compare the shape of the signal to that of the wavelet. ... Figure 3: The wavelet (dotted line) is translated rela tive to the signal (solid line). ...

Assuming that the 'missing area' of the bad pixels which is covered by an unrecognizable event pattern is usually small compared to the size of the pattern (i.e. that only a small amount of the total charge is lost in bad pixels), the treatment is the same as for the isolated case.

. You can compare any two versions of a file that is under the control of SCCS with the sccsdiff command: /usr/sccs/sccsdiff -r version -r version s. filename . Using this command produces a line by line difference between the two versions of the file. Results are shown in the same format as that produced by the diff command. Examples .

The theory predicts that the oscillation period should be proportional to the square root of the oscillating mass, including the mass of the clip. Note that gravity plays no part here: the oscillation period would be the same on the Moon or in zero-g. Denoting square root by SQRT, we have . ...
