XMM-Newton Science Analysis System Page: 1 rgscombine June 28, 2006 Abstract Combines a list of spectrum les to create one combined spectrum le, and the corresponding list of response matrices and background spectrum, to create one nal response matrix and background spectrum le, for a paticular RGS instrument and spectral order. ... A list of response matrix les, as produced by rgsrmfgen or rgsproc. A list of background spectrum les as produced by rgsspectrum or rgsproc for TOTAL spectra. ...

... Correcting ETC Calculations of CCD Spectral Observations for CTE Effects . ... HST Overview . Overview . ... Post-Observation . ... ETC . ... ID: CL Script for Applying CTE Loss to Output of Spectroscopic ETC . ... However, the STIS ETC calculations do not incorporate these CTE effects as yet. ... The output from this script should then be used to calculate the appropriate input flux level for a second run of the ETC, which will then yield output which is corrected for the CTE effect. ...

Next: HST Paper Products: A New Way to Look at HST Data . ... After providing on-the-fly re-calibration of HST data to archive users, ST-ECF has embarked on a new project aiming at grouping, cosmic ray cleaning and drizzling images taken by most HST instruments. ... The production of the missing jitter files combined with the extraction of additional engineering parameters will greatly enhance the homogeneity and the scientific value of the entire archive. ... 1995, HST Data Handbook, STScI, 107 . ...

Next: Star Formation Rate and Up: No Title Previous: Calculation of Evolutionary Tracks . To start calculations, we choose the distributions of the initial binary parameters: the mass of the primary ZAMS component, , binary mass ratio, , orbital separation a . ... whereas the mass ratio distribution is not. ... The zero assumption often made is that the mass ratio distribution has a flat shape, that is binaries with a high mass ratio occur as frequently as those with equal masses. ...

... Column 1 gives the object name from the Case or Markarian catalogs. ... For Markarian galaxies the errors of coordinates usually lie inside 2'' (Lipovetsky [ 1983 ]). Column 4 gives the eye-estimated apparent blue magnitudes according to the same sources. ... Other names of a galaxy we give in column 7. ... In column 3 we cite the original emission-line code of the galaxy for the strength of [O III ] doublet according to the Case catalog (s - strong, m - medium, w - weak). ...

... Apply a time-varying phase shift to track the object. ... This overrides the normal behaviour of using the spin axis. arcane The format for the pmotion text files is the "arcane" format (see below). ... Each source is specified by three numbers: ra dec flux The RA and DEC are in normal Miriad format, and the flux is in Jy. ... The normal format consists of 3 values per line, being time ra dec with "time" (UTC), "ra" and "dec" being the position of the object at a given time. ...

... The Earth orientation parameters UT1 and polar motion (x pol ; y pol ) are relat­ ed with the values of UT0 and VOL obtained from the LLR analysis for a station with geocentric longitude and latitude (–; OE) by the following expression: 7 UT0 \Gamma UTC = UT1 \Gamma UTC + (x pol sin – + y pol cos –) tan OE 15 V OL = x pol cos – \Gamma y pol sin – At least four normal points for each station--reflector pair at one day were accepted for the diurnal UT0 estimations. ...
