... Meta Index / Home Page / Description / Soft flare rejection for . In this version of epreject only the boxcar method for screening the soft flares has been implemented. ... In order to perform the soft flare event selection the program generates a lightcurve in 0.1 sec bins in the specified PHA range using the rawevents obtained from the epframes procedure. ... This smoothed lightcurve is then used to help perform the soft flare event selection. ... This column can the be used to screen the data. ...

The VLTI Calibrator Selector Tool is a tool intended to assist in the selection of suitable interferometric calibrators for VLTI observations with MIDI and AMBER. It uses a model of the VLTI and its instruments to assess the fringe visibility, given the observed bandpass, the geometry, spectrum, and coordinates of the target and the time at which the observations are to be made. ... The tool offers an HTML/Java based interface and consists of two pages. ... The quality flag depends on LDD_chi2. ...

... He made observations of a supernova (literally: nova= "new star") in 1572 (we now know that a supernova is an exploding star, not a new star). ... Brahe's meticulous observations showed that the supernova did not change positions with respect to the other stars (no parallax). ... This was early evidence against the immutable nature of the heavens, although Brahe did not interpret the absence of parallax for stars correctly, as we discuss below. Brahe made careful observations of a comet in 1577. ...
