All the objects in the database, galaxies, stars, clusters, ..., are indexed with their pgc number. Historically, the pgc numbering was created to unify the names of the galaxies when the database project started in 1983. ... Still, all the objects in the database (about 5 millions) have a pgc number which is used as a unique identification across the different tables. This number should not be used to build a name , since it would not be recognized by any database, including HyperLeda. ...

Target Acquisition Reference Information . There are limits to the brightest and bluest stars that can be acquired with mirrors N1 and N2 because of the very high fluxes of these objects. Figure 7.3 on page 91 shows the limits for these two mirrors as set in the Constraints and Restrictions Document (CARD). ... Once you have predicted an acquisition count rate, you then determine the integration time per dwell point during the target acquisition: STEP-TIME. ... STEP-TIME Constraints . ...

... User Guide ] Task: uvsfit Purpose: Fit point sources to a given vis file. ... You can reduce the data volume by averaging in frequency using the line parameter (apply bandpass first) or selecting a subset of the data. If you want to produce model or residual visibilities at full resolution for all the data, you can run UVSFIT again with all source parameters specified and fixed. ...

... The absolute Galois group of Q, denoted Gal(\bar{Q}/Q) in the sequel, is a fundamental object in arithmetics since it carries a lot of informations about number fields. ... A classical way to study this group is to use p-adic numbers. ... firstly, we will explain the classical d vissage of Gal(\bar{Q_p}/Q_p) based on ramification theory; as a corollary, we will deduce that any finite extension of Q_p is resoluble; . ...
