... A universal physical relation for quasars . ... Harvey Tananbaum and his collaborators have first observed a relation between the soft X-ray and the optical/ultraviolet emission in AGN in 1979. Such relation is nonlinear, and it is usually parameterized as dependence between the logarithm of the monochromatic luminosities at 2500 †Е ( L 2500†Е ) and 2 keV ( L 2keV ) . ... Yet, the dispersion along the L 2500†Е тАУ L 2keV relationship is found to be rather high, typically ~0.35тАУ0.4 in log units. ...

This form calculates which transits of the 1039 known transiting exoplanets are observable from a given location at a given time. Specify a time window, an observing location (either an observatory from the list or choose "Enter latitude/longitude" at the end of the list), and optionally any filters (e.g. minimum transit depth or elevation). The output includes transit time and elevation, and links to further information about each object, including finding charts and airmass plots. ...

The trapping of particles by magnetic fields was first studied by Kristian Birkeland in Norway, starting around 1895. ... Poincare managed to solve the motion of charged particles near an isolated magnetic pole, showing that they spiraled around field lines and that they were repelled from regions of strong field. ... A more realistic problem, of more interest to Birkeland, was particle motion near a compact bar magnet or "dipole", which better approximated the field of the Earth or of his terrella. ...
