چکیده

Recently Box and McKellar and Fymat have presented analytic inversion formulae for multispectral extinction data in the anomalous diffraction approximation. In this paper, we shall examine the relationship between these two formulae, and in the process we shall derive both the power series expansion and the asymptotic expansion for the extinction in this approximation.

A Complete Analytic Inversion of Supernova Lines in the Sobolev Approximation

We show that the shape of P-Cygni line profiles of photospheric phase supernova can be analytically inverted to extract both the optical depth and source function of the line – i.e. all the physical content of the model for the case when the Sobolev approximation is valid. Under various simplifying assumptions, we derive formulae that give S(r) and τ(r) in terms of derivatives of the line flux ...

Internal Extinction in the Sdss Late-type Galaxies

We study internal extinction of late-type galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We find that the degree of internal extinction depends on both the concentration index c and Ks-band absolute magnitude MK . We give simple fitting functions for internal extinction. In particular, we present analytic formulae giving the extinction-corrected magnitudes from the observed optical parameters. For e...

Error analysis for the lidar backward inversion algorithm.

Here we depart from the inhomogeneous solution of a lidar equation using the backward inversion algorithm that is nowadays generally referred to as the Klett method. In particular, we develop an error sensitivity study that relates errors in the user-input parameters boundary extinction and exponential term in the extinction-to-backscatter relationship to errors in the inverted extinction profi...

Sensitivity of a lidar inversion algorithm to parameters relating atmospheric backscatter and extinction.

A solution of the single-scattering lidar equation requires a relationship between the coefficients of backscatter beta(r) and extinction sigma(r) to be of the form beta(r) = C2sigma(r)k, where C2 and k are parameters independent of range r. The sensitivity of a particular lidar inversion algorithm to uncertainties in C2 and k is investigated using a measured lidar return which indicated the at...

Automated Derivation of Bathymetric Information from Multi-Spectral Satellite Imagery Using a Non-Linear Inversion Model

Most previous studies utilized a log-linear regression model to invert multi-spectral images into bathymetric data. Based on the Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm, we developed an automated method for calibrating the parameters for a non-linear inversion model. Our method has been successfully applied to an IKONOS multispectral image. We compared depth data derived from our model to th...
