... 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". ...

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. ...

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). ...

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. ...

... Line radiative transfer in C 18 O, HCO + , and CS lines is considered in a spherically symmetric chemo-dynamical model of a starless core, evolution of which is driven by the ambipolar diffusion. Theoretical line profiles are compared to observational data on the well-known L1544 core, which is one of possible candidates for collapsing protostellar clouds. ... Comparison between modelled and observed spectra suggests that L1544 has flattened structure and is observed at some inclination. ...

... Shortly after its discovery it was determined to be in a highly elliptical path near Jupiter and on a collision course. ... T he size and mass of the original body and the individual fragments is as of this writing still highly uncertain. ... B etween 16 July 1994 and 22 July 1994 the fragments impacted the upper atmosphere of Jupiter. ... T he pictures were posted to the Net within hours of the impacts and caused severe overloading on some ftp and WWW sites. ... JPL's SL9 page . ... Small Bodies .....

A critical view on Type Ia Supernovae as distance indicators B. Leibundgut European Southern Observatory The use of Type Ia Supernovae to measure cosmological distances relies on several observational facts from nearby supernovae. ... A new approach is to compare global parameters like bolometric (UVOIR) light curves, maximum luminosity, nickel masses, and explosion velocities for many nearby SNe Ia. ...
