The photometry of optical instruments [PDF]
The use of a portable surface-brightness photometer of the polarisation type for the measurement of the fraction of the incident light transmitted by an optical instrument or reflected by a mirror or system of mirrors, and for the measurement of the relative brightness of different parts of the field of view of an optical instrument, is described.

Optical surface photometry of radio galaxies [PDF]
Optical imaging observations for 50 radio galaxies are presented. For each object isophotal contours, photometric profiles, structural parameters (position angle, ellipticity, Fourier coefficients), and total magnitudes are given. These observations, obtained in the Cousins R band, complement the data presented in a previous paper and are part of a ...

Optical and Radio Surface Photometry of NGC 891 [PDF]
A general correlation between the radio and optical continuum surface brightness has been found in the edge-on galaxy NGC 891. This suggests that the relativistic electrons are produced/accelerated in the vicinity of evolved stars or stellar remnants which have a spatial distribution similar to old disk stars.

Optical Photometry of Black-Hole Candidates [PDF]
The orbital light curves of SXTs are discussed. In principle, the orbital inclination can be determined from the ellipsoidal variations, allowing a complete solution for the component masses. Complications in this analysis are described, and the evidence for superhumps in the light curves is reviewed.

Array Polarimetry and Optical-Differencing Photometry [PDF]
Array detectors have improved the efficiency of optical polarimetry sufficiently for this technique to become part of the standard arsenal of observational facilities. However, we could gain even more: spatially-differentiating photometry can be implemented as an option of array Polarimeters and low-noise, high-frame-rate array detectors will allow ...
