Investigation of a resistive anode detector for astronomical spectroscopy [PDF]
A large format two dimensional photon counting detector has been evaluated as a detector for astronomical spectroscopy. The design comprises an 320 photocathode, a tandem MCP gain stage and a circular arc terminated resisitive anode to provide ...

A Method to Measure Photometries of Moderately Saturated UVOT Sources
For bright transients such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), the Ultra-Violet/Optical Telescope (UVOT) operates under event mode at early phases, which records incident positions and the arrival time for each photon.

Analyzing astronomical data with machine learning techniques
Classification is a popular task in the field of machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), and it happens when outputs are categorical variables. There are a wide variety of models that attempt to draw some conclusions from observed values, so classification algorithms predict categorical class labels for use in classifying new data ...

Some Astronomical Applications of Cross-Correlation Techniques. [PDF]
Cross-correlation techniques have been used for many years to increase the signal-to-noise ratio of a wide variety of analogue and digital data. A large literature describing these methods exists, and many clever applications have been developed (see Fellgett 1953, and esp. Woodward 1955, for a basic mathematical development and applications).

Snow Depth Variations Estimated from GPS-Reflectometry: A Case Study in Alaska from L2P SNR Data
Snow is a water resource and plays a significant role in the water cycle. However, traditional ground techniques for snow monitoring have many limitations, e.g., high-cost and low resolution. Recently, the new Global Positioning System-Reflectometry (GPS-
