A Test of Galaxy Evolutionary Models Via Angular Sizes M. Im S. Casertano, R. E. Griffiths, & K. U. Ratnatunga (The Johns Hopkins University) The relationship between angular size, magnitude, and redshift of faint galaxies is explored as a potential tool to distinguish between different galaxy evolutionary models. ... The mild lumi­ nosity evolution model predicts more luminous galaxies of large angular size at high redshift, as does a standard no evolution model. ... 25) with redshift higher than z ? ...

The CLASS attribute is most commonly used to attach a different style to some element, but it is recommended that where practical class names should be picked on the basis of the element's semantics, as this will permit other uses, such as restricting search through documents by matching on element class names. ...

... The magnetic field of the Earth has been investigated by satellites for several decades now, and enough of it is known to model its average strength and shape during different levels of overall magnetic activity. Presently the most used empirical global magnetic field models are the Tsyganenko models (1987, 1989) , referred to as T87 and T89, respectively, although even these consist of several submodels. ...

... Early on, our interest in chirping analysis functions was motivated by a different kind of chirping phenomenon: chirping due to perspective. ... Our interest in radar, however, drew us toward processes that are more accurately analyzed by linear-FM chirplets. ... We have also constructed other chirplet transforms, such as a three-parameter Doppler chirplet representation that models a source producing a sinusoidal wave, while moving along a straight line (e.g. a train whistle). ...
