The Linear Ramp Filters (LRFs) provide a narrow band ( ) imaging capability which is continuously tunable from 3710е to 9762е. These are essentially a collection of narrow band interference filters whose central wavelength varies with position on the filter glass. ... If it is necessary to know which CCD will be used, observers can consult Table 3.7 or Table 3.8 , or use the on-line LRF calculator tool on the WFPC2 WWW pages. ... See Linear Ramp Filters for further details on LRFs.) ...

It was designed to observe the solar wind approaching Earth, from a position near the Lagrangian point L1, and it is part of the International Solar-Terrestrial Physics (ISTP) Initiative . ... The original plan called for "Wind" to approach its final station over two years, undergoing two close encounters with the Moon to boost its speed. ...

... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

... An OBJECT column gives the name of the object observed (usually a star name). ... In critical cases, it is common practice to measure sky on two or more positions around a target object, and these positions must be identified. ... A general treatment of this problem requires a column called OBJECT, bearing the usual name of the object (as in the star tables); a column labelled STARSKY, to distinguish between star+sky, star alone, or sky alone; and additional columns to identify the sky position. ...

... This task operates on event data in an event list. ... In the first two cases, the celestial coordinates of the reference point are taken respectively as the values of the RA_NOM , DEC_NOM or RA_OBJ , DEC_OBJ values in the input event file header. ... Although the OM attitude information may be more accurate, it will not be present throughout part of the observation, and as such, the default source for the attitude data should be "ahf". ...

Here user should specify the origin of coordinate system (observer's position). In case of rectangular coordinates it can be center of any major planet or the Sun or any minor planet. ... For spherical coordinates the origin of coordinate system can coincide only with the center of the Earth or with any point on the Earth surface. ... a)by code of observatory in the list of observatories maintained by Minor Planet Center (see IX.

... The procedure simply observes ON your source for x minutes and then takes a `blank sky' observation OFF your source for the same amount of time and tracking the same azimuth and zenith angle range. ... Typically, observing times are kept to within 5 minutes (with 5 minutes as the most efficient, and therefore default, choice). ... If your scans are for 5 minutes or less, your wait time should be set to 1 minute (the default setting). ... A 5 minute ON/OFF + 10s CAL takes 11.3 minutes. ...
