چکیده

The CHARA Array is a six 1 m telescope optical/IR interferometric array located on Mount Wilson, California, designed and built by the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy of Georgia State University. In this paper we describe the main elements of the Array hardware and software control systems, as well as the data reduction methods currently being used. Our plans for upgrades in the near future are also described.

Implementation of Face Recognition Algorithm on Fields Programmable Gate Array Card

The evolution of today's application technologies requires a certain level of robustness, reliability and ease of integration. We choose the Fields Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) hardware description language to implement the facial recognition algorithm based on "Eigen faces" using Principal Component Analysis. In this paper, we first present an overview of the PCA used for facial recognition,...

VEGA: Visible spEctroGraph and polArimeter for the CHARA array: principle and performance

Context. Among optical stellar interferometers, the CHARA Array located at Mt Wilson in California offers the potential of very long baselines (up to 330 m) and the prospect of coupling multiple beam combiners. This paper presents the principle and the measured performance of VEGA, Visible spEctroGraph and polArimeter installed in September 2007 at the coherent focus of the array. Aims. With 0....

MODULE GENERALIZED DERIVATIONS ON TRIANGULAUR BANACH ALGEBRAS

Let $A_1$, $A_2$ be unital Banach algebras and $X$ be an $A_1$-$A_2$- module. Applying the concept of module maps, (inner) modulegeneralized derivations and  generalized first cohomology groups, wepresent several results concerning the relations between modulegeneralized derivations from $A_i$ into the dual space $A^*_i$ (for$i=1,2$) and such derivations  from  the triangular Banach algebraof t...
