... The principle of communication using unstable periodic orbits (UPO) of a chaotic attractor can be represented as follows. ... Lozi attractor with period-16 unstable periodic orbit. ... Processing of the unstable orbits Forming of asynchronous data stream. ... Asynchronous packet data transmission Unstable periodic orbits can be utilized for not only encoding the entire transmitted information, but also for attributing it to this or that group of users, i.e., they play the role of "chaotic markers". ...

... include <string.h> . char *stpcpy ( char *dest, char *src) - Copy one string into another. int strcmp( char * string1 , char * string2 ) - Compare string1 and string2 to determine alphabetic order. char *strcpy( char * string1 , char * string2 ) - Copy string2 to stringl. char *strerror( int errnum) - Get error message corresponding to specified error number. int strlen( ...

Cosmic ray intensities (left) compared with predictions (right) from IBEX. The similarity between these observations and predictions as evidenced by the similar color regions supports the local galactic magnetic field direction determined from IBEX observations made from particles at vastly lower energies than the cosmic ray observations shown here. The blue area represents regions of lower fluxes of cosmic rays. ...

... The most precisely determined characteristic for accreting neutron stars (NS's) is their period. ... Period changes show fluctuations. ... Some applications of stochastic processes in astrophysics especially in accreting systems were discussed in Lipunov (1987),Hoshino Takeshima (1993) and Lipunov (1992).In Hoshino Takeshima (1993) the authors, using simple models of MHD turbulence, try to explain aperiodic changes in X-ray luminosity of X-ray pulsars. ... Here, -constant angular momentum. ...

... NASA Integrated Services Network (NISN) . ... Russian Space Science Internet (RSSI) . ... In the Fall of 1993, NASA Science lnternet (NSI) and the Russian Space Science lnternet (RSSI) began a cooperative effort to provide lnternet communications to selected Russian institutions in order to promote sponsored scientific cooperation between the two countries. ... This change, limiting full lnternet access via NISN for NASA selected Russian institutions, will take place no later than July 1998. ...

... Editor's choices for the most educational Astronomy Pictures of the Day about clusters of galaxies: . APOD: 2006 March 21 - The Coma Cluster of Galaxies . ... APOD: 2005 November 22 - A Galactic Collision in Cluster Abell 1185 . ... A prominent example occurs on the left of the above image of the rich cluster of galaxies Abell 1185. ... Recent observations of Abell 1185 have found unusual globular clusters of stars that appear to belong only to the galaxy cluster and not to any individual galaxy. ...

Next: Mission Element Points-of-Contact . Previous: Mission Operations Data Transfer . ... Each mission element should ensure that their contact information remains current and notify the RSOG of any changes. ... Non-RSOG mission elements will also use the "dit" list to notify the RSOG (and all other mission elements) of unexpected events that may impact operations elsewhere, e.g., if a tracking station discovers that the spacecraft is in an unexpected configuration. ...

... The bright supernova (hereafter SN) in the galaxy NGC 4527 was first sighted by S. Knight (USA) on April 13.17UT at magnitude ~14.0v. The report of the sighting was subsequently forwarded by phone to the AAVSO. ... SN 1991T. The galaxy NGC 4527 is an Sb(s)II type galaxy with an apparent Blue magnitude of 11.32 (Shapley-Ames, 1981). ... An analysis of this event utilizing visual observations by amateurs, plus a light curve is presented.. ... THE LIGHT CURVE: . ... ISN SN 1991T web page . ...

ASTEROIDAL DAMAGE TO THE EARTH: IMPLICATIONS BY ASTEROIDS ­ RUBBLE PILES. ... 13, Moscow 119892, Russia, E-mail:san@sai.msu.ru In the cause of asteroids ­ rubble piles its effective cross-section of collision to the Earth is determined not by consolidated body, but by cluster of its fragments. Since the stage of rubble ­ piles may be ~108 years (see our communication at previous symposium), it may be significant for estimation the asteroidal damage to the Earth. ...
