Eigenvector Sky Subtraction.
We develop a new method for estimating and removing the spectrum of the sky from deep spectroscopic observations. Our method does not rely on simultaneous measurement of the sky spectrum with the object spectrum. The technique is based on the iterative subtraction of continuum estimates and eigenvector sky models derived from singular value decompositions of sky spectra and sky spectra residual...
متن کاملA robust algorithm for sky background computation in CCD images ⋆
In this paper we present a non-interactive algorithm to estimate a representative value for the sky background on CCD images. The method we have devised uses the mode as a robust estimator of the background brightness in sub-windows distributed across the input frame. The presence of contaminating objects is detected through the study of the local intensity distribution function and the perturb...
متن کاملDetermination of sky background
The capabilities ofmeasuring the sky background both on-board of GAIA and on-ground are discussed in relation to astrometric and photometric scientific requirements, and to onboard computing specifications. From the various ways of estimating the sky background during the data reduction it is shown that AF11 would be the more adapted, either using its edges or by LSF-fitting. A more computation...
متن کاملKeck NGAO sky coverage modeling
This report details the sky coverage simulations carried out for the Keck Next Generation Adaptive Optics (NGAO) system. This work was carried out to meet the objectives stated in WBS Element Number: 3.1.2.2.10 Number and Type of Low Order WFS TS. As well as investigating the number of Natural Guide Star (NGS) Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensors (WFS), this report considers the number of modes to ...
متن کاملTwo-Dimensional Topology of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
We present the topology of a volume-limited sample of 11,884 galaxies, selected from an apparent-magnitude limited sample of over 100,000 galaxies observed as part of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The data currently cover three main regions on the sky: one in the Galactic north and one in the south, both at zero degrees declination, and one area in the north at higher declination. Each o...
