... The absolute flux calibration of NICMOS will be calculated from observations of standard stars with known flux distributions F( ). ... In order to expand the set of IR standard stars in the appropriate flux range for NICMOS, M. Rieke, R. Thompson, and collaborators at the University of Arizona are making photometric observations of solar-analog stars, which will be used to normalize the solar spectrum to the observed IR magnitudes. ... Relative flux references accurate to 1.5% for standard...

My main field of interest is modelling dust extinction and emission in the disk of spiral galaxies. Radiative transfer simulations are compared to optical, FIR and sub-mm observations to assess the dust mass, distribution relative to star and optical/emission properties. ... I'm also interested in the formation, evolution and survival of dust grains in high-redshift objects, and in comparing the extinction / emission properties of dust with observations of distant sources. ...

The radial distribution of metallicity of star-forming galaxies in a galaxy cluster can inform us about the mass assembly and enrichment history of the galaxy cluster. ...

Among those with the code ``w'' about 40 % are BCGs. ...

... Accurate identification of physical binary star systems has become of increasing interest in recent years. ... Identification of physical binary star systems, with an estimated reliability of such identifications based on the theory of probability, is also important for current and future efforts to find binary star systems that are candidates for observations with the aim of determining their orbits and component masses. ... probability of the proximity of proper motions and ; . ...

... The described procedure returns the one-dimensional response distribution in PI channels, based on an input energy. The redistribution function of the MOS cameras comprises a main peak (roughly centred on the input photon energy); a lower-energy secondary peak, whose relative magnitude is inversely correlated with the photon energy, and a noise term which extends down to the detection threshold energy. Details of the current calculation are given in the CCF release note, CAL-SRN-272. ...

... The colors indicate the relative motions of galaxies with accurately measured distances, with shades of green and blue indicating motions toward us and shades of yellow to red indicating motions away from us. Our nearest neighbors have only small relative motions (represented by yellows and greens), as seen best in the exploded view of the right panel. We, along with all these nearest neighbors, are moving together toward the lower right corner of the figures. ...
