... The accuracy to which you can trust the absolute flux calibration of your STIS spectroscopic data at slit center is limited by several factors including: . The accuracy of the absolute sensitivity calibration of the grating and central wavelength setting. ... The STIS spectrum of this star is then extracted over a standard aperture extraction box and the sensitivity required to return the known flux from the star is determined as a function of wavelength. ...

Next: Geometric Corrections Up: Raw to Calibrated Previous: Artifacts . ... The majority of modern detectors (e.g. CCD, diode--array or image tube) have a nearly linear response while photographic emulsions are strongly non--linear. Even for the `linear' detectors, a number of corrections must be included in the intensity calibration. ... A raw frame is then transformed to relative intensities by . ... Thus, the gaussian grain noise on emulsions becomes skewed through the intensity calibration. ...

... epiclccorr (epiclccorr-1.0.8) [?? ... epiclccorr will treat all these corrections individually, developing and designing specific algorithms to correct the Relative Corrections . GTIs correction will be calculated using the GTI extensions located in the time series file, if any. ... Exposure correction is the time inside each frame where the CCD is taking data correctly (no counting or MIP problems). ... This correction will be calculated using the Live Time and Frame Time values of each mode. ...

Federal Communications Commission (ix)(A) For a station authorized pursuant to § 73.215 or Sec. § 73.509, a showing that the root mean square (RMS) of the measured composite antenna pattern (encompassing both the horizontally and vertically polarized radiation components (in relative field)) is at least 85 percent of the RMS of the authorized composite directional antenna pattern (in relative field). ...

RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBERS Description of Data from SGD Explanation of Data Reports: Relative Sunspot Numbers -- The relative sunspot number is an index of the activity of the entire visible disk of the Sun. ... The provisional daily Zurich relative sunspot numbers, Rz, were based upon observations made at Zurich and its two branch stations in Arosa and Locarno and communicated by M. Waldmeier of the Swiss Federal Observatory. ... This indicates the uncertainty above and below the predicted number. ...

... User Guide ] Task: mfcal Purpose: Multifrequency antenna and passband calibration. ... No default. This can (indeed should) contain multiple channels and spectral windows. ... Key: flux Three to five numbers, giving the source flux density, a reference frequency (in GHz) and the source spectral index parameters. ... Key: interval This gives one, two or three numbers, all in units of minutes, being used to determine the lengths of the antenna gain and passband calibration solution interval. ...

Next: DIRECT MASSES FOR BXCIR Up: EXTREME HELIUM STARS: PULSATION Previous: PULSATION PROPERTIES . As already indicated, V652Her is an important EHe star because its relatively short pulsation period and large amplitude pulsations allow its overall dimensions to be determined with high precision. ... Saio & Nomoto (1998) made the first successful models for the merger of two carbon-oxygen white dwarfs, and prompted Saio & Jeffery (2000) to attempt models for the merger of two helium white dwarfs. ...

... Determining the nominal roll angle for stable intervals . ... We found the necessary information in a file 'rh*.ao', which has a binary extension table for each obi. ... Unlike the question of determining the nominal roll angle, we know of no a priori indication of this problem (although the guide star configuration may be the cause, or at least associated with this condition): it is necessary to examine the source position for each obi. ... The guide star record is at the end of the 'anc file'. ...

... The choice of the spectrograph design (Fig.2) is determined by the quantity R, the overall dimensions of the PF cage and the restrictions on the rigidity of the structure of the device. ... As the camera's objective a fast 4-lens aplanat is used having a focal distance F cam =140 mm and a relative aperture of 1:1.8, the resolution at the centre is no less than 80 gr/mm, that over the field at a distance of 3 mm from the edge along the frame ( ) diagonal is 35 gr/mm. ...
