AbstractDark current spectroscopy (DCS) is used to study deep level traps corresponding to the bright pixels that form the histogram “tails” of irradiated charge-coupled devices (CCD). We found four distinct traps, among which the double vacancy (V2) and the vacancy-phosphorous (VP) have the highest concentrations and generation rates. We show that DCS can be used to examine the annealing mechanisms of silicon defects to concentrations as low as 5 × 107 cm−3.

AbstractA widely used tool in studying quasi-monoperiodic processes is the O–C diagram. This paper deals with the application of this diagram in minor planet studies. The main difference between our approach and the classical O–C diagram is that we transform the epoch (=time) dependence into the geocentric longitude domain. We outline a rotation modelling using this modified O–C and illustrate the abilities with detailed error analysis. The primary assumption, that the monotonity and the shape of this diagram is (almost) independent of the geometry of the asteroids is discussed and tested. The monotonity enables an unambiguous distinction between the prograde and retrograde rotation, thus the four-fold (or in some cases the two-fold) ambiguities can be avoided. This turned out to be the main advantage of the O–C examination. As an extension to the theoretical work, we present some preliminary results on 1727 Mette based on new CCD observations.
