The VIRGO project is a physics experiment; its aim is the detection of gravitational waves. ... It has not yet been possible to detect directly the gravitational waves: it remains one of the major challenges of experimental physics. ... Interferometric antennas for gravitational waves Gravitational waves distort space-time: along two perpendicular directions, the distances between fixed points will increase (resp. decrease), at the arrival of a gravitational wave. ...

... According to the most popular cosmological paradigm, the greater part of the galaxy mass is accumulated in the dark matter halo. ... The polar ring galaxies (PRGs) reveal external rings or disks of gas, dust and stars rotating in a plane roughly perpendicular to the disk of the central galaxy. ... The shape of the dark halo in the model was chosen so as to achieve the best fit to the observed rotation of both galaxies themselves and their polar rings. ... The SPRC-7 galaxy. ...

In the regular experiments carried out with the RAS radio telescopes at Pushchino during 1999-2002, the study of the radial dependence of scattering of compact natural radio sources was extended to remote regions of the solar plasma environment. ... The stream in the transalfvenic region displays the same typical radial structure as observed in the transonic region, i.e., the existence of a "precursor" - a narrow band of reduced scattering preceding a wide region of enhanced scattering. ...

... It turns out one possibility is a form of matter/energy invented by Einstein in the 1920s to make sure his equations of General Relativity did not predict the Expansion of the Universe. Although Einstein was willing to predict several things with his equations of General Relativity, he obviously thought an expanding Universe was too much, and so he invented the Cosmological Constant, which repels itself, and was meant to balance the force of gravity, and make the Universe static. ...

... The distinction of our approach is in that we unite the Actor Prolog concurrent ob ject-oriented logic language [ 1,2,3] with the Structural Analysis and Design Technique (SADT) diagrams to obtain new issues in the following areas: 1. ... Graphic user interface management. ... The individual blocks of visual user interface based on the SADT diagrams are implemented by using parallel processes of Actor Prolog. ... We applied the visual programming method for logic programming of Internet agents [4]. ...

... In spite of the fact that the orbit assumes a zero gravity (the scientists count on it by growing super-clean crystals and other materials impossible on the earth), in fact, none spacecraft provides such conditions. ... This question is answered by the device developed by SSAU scientists - Micro-acceleration Compensation Space System (MCSS). ... Then, the computer will give commands to the magnets that compensate micro-accelerations. ... Tags: 'photon-m4' mcss . ... SAMARA STATE AEROSPACE UNIVERSITY...
