... The task first computes a background image in order to identify pixels that may be part of a source. The task uses two different algorithms for detecting ``point'' and ``extended'' sources. ... This is necessary because some faint ``point'' sources may have been missed by the point-source detection algorithm, but picked up by the extended-source detection algorithm. ... When the detection process is finished a check is made on extended sources to see if they can be split into two or more sources. ...

... Computing the true count rates for digital data. ... The following equation is used to find the count rate. x = ( raw counts / sample time ) . ... True count rates for digital data are corrected by using the first equation for a point source and the second for an extended source. a = ( y - pre_amp - darkrate ) / ( highvolt x pt_effic ) . ... True photocurrents (count rates for analog data) are corrected by the first equation for point sources and the second equation for extended sources. ...

The distance modulus, mod0 [mag] is either computed from the distance catalogue or using the Tully-Fisher or Faber-Jackson relations. When measurements are available in the distance catalogue , mod0 is computed as the weighted average of those measurements. ... The Tully-Fisher relation uses the corrected total magnitude btc and the maximum velocity of rotation vmaxg . ... Another parameter, modz (redshift distance modulus), estimates the luminosity-distance using the redshift. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

... Obviously, the size of the cavern is of the order of the Schwartzman radius. ... Thus, consideration of the inverse effect of pulsar radiation on the properties of accreting plasma makes the ejection possible even when the Schwartzman radius is smaller than the capture radius. ... If the cavern radius , the condition at its boundary can be written as . ... Apart from magnetic dipole radiation, the cavern may also contain relativistic particles (which are also reflected from the cavern boundary). ...

... All the parameters provided in this database have been obtained using the the MIRIAD ( Sault et al. 1995 ) task MBSPECT . MBSPECT makes a spectrum of the velocity (or frequency) axis of a cube. The spectrum is beam-weighted, over the width specified, for the other image axes. ... Robust parameters are calculated by using an algorithm which minimises the mean absolute deviation of the flux-weighted velocities. mask= This specifies the x-axis ranges to be excluded from any continuum fit. ...
