32-bit database application with multidocument interface for Windows has been developed to calculate absolute energy distributions of observed spectra. The original database contains wavelength calibrated observed spectra which had been already passed through apparatus reductions such as flatfielding, background and apparatus noise subtracting. Absolute energy distributions of observed spectra are defined in unique scale by means of registering them simultaneously with artificial intensity standard. Observations of sequence of spectrophotometric standards are used to define absolute energy of the artificial standard. Observations of spectrophotometric standards are used to define optical extinction in selected moments. FFT algorithm implemented in the application allows performing convolution (deconvolution) spectra with user-defined PSF. The object-oriented interface has been created using facilities of C++ libraries. Client/server model with Windows Socket functionality based on TCP/IP protocol is used to develop the application. It supports Dynamic Data Exchange conversation in server mode and uses Microsoft Exchange communication facilities.
Two digital television complexes with three small telescopes have been successfully used for photometric and spectrophotometric observations at the Crimean astrophysical observatory. All data have absolute calibration, recorded to a personal computer and reduced for flat field and distortion. The high sensitive pickup tube I-isocon of the first complex has mounted at the 500-mm meniscus telescope. The second tube coupled to the 200-mm telescope used as a television guide. The second complex can be used with 380-mm telescope. Two TV complexes can work simultaneously observing one object or different objects. The complex is equipped with filters reproduced photometric B, V, R bands and two spectrographs. The BVR observations of stars with magnitudes up to 19m are carried out with the accuracy of 0.05m with exposure time about several minutes. Simultaneous observations in the BVR bands can be carried out also. The original afocal slitless spectrograph allows us to receive the absolute spectral distribution in spectra of point sources up to 14m with spectral resolution about 50 angstrom and exposure time of several minutes. The slit spectrograph allowed us to receive unique Jupiter observations during its collision with comet Shoemaker-Levy 9.
The 32-bit database applications with multiple document interface for Windows has been deployed to study fast variability of individual features in spectra that had been undertaken apparatus error correction (such as flat field correction). The channel scale of all spectra had been transferred to the wavelength scale (angstroms). The database application has been developed using client/server model. The TCP/IP protocol is used in client/server communication based on the Windows Sockets (version 1.1) functionality. The application supports Dynamic Data Exchange conversation in server mode.
