... The distribution of galactic RCB stars is controversial. Several authors have argued that they belong to a thick galactic disk, and are thus old Population I stars. ... However, their distribution and space velocities suggest they may alternatively belong to the even older galactic bulge (Population II, [ Drilling 1986 ]). ... These are the only RCB stars for which a distance is known and hence for which an absolute magnitude can be deduced. ...

... INSTRUMENT: SurveyCam FILTERS: Stromgren uvby, 2" square COMMENTS: remote observations are expected BRIEF SCIENCE JUSTIFICATION: Last decade numerous faint structures at the periphery of regular galaxies, as arcs, tails, or streams, have been discovered (see e.g. Martinez-Delgado et al., ... The broad-band photometry is used for observing the faint structures, but it does not allow to break the age-metallicity degeneracy efficiently. ... The standard Stromgren set is available at APO. ... 2014). ...

The probability density function (PDF) is a simple analytical tool for determining the hierarchical spatial structure of molecular clouds. ... We have recently conducted a PDF analysis of the molecular gas in the G333 and Vela C giant molecular cloud complexes, using transitions of CO, HCN, HNC, HCO+ and N2H+. The results show that CO and its isotopologues trace mostly the log-normal part of the PDF, while HCN and HCO+ trace both a log-normal part and a power law part to the distribution. ...

... It satisfies the set of WDVV (associativity) equations in canonical variables. The geometric/integrable content of corrections in 1/N is an important, still unresolved, problem. The only way to construct systematically these corrections is to solve the set of loop equations. We find the subleading correction (the torus approximation) and discuss its possible singularities of the answer in the set of new parameters S_i. ...

It is possible to incorporate in the SAS software packages that are not part of the official SAS distribution. These we call 'external packages'. All that is needed is to set the environment variable SAS_PATH to point to all directories that contain SAS components, in the form of a colon-separated list. ... He will have to set the SAS_DIR and SAS_PATH environment variable and call the sas-setup script (preferably in a login script), e.g. (csh): setenv SAS_DIR /usr/sas . ...

Where and how are we looking for evidence of life? ... Because the universe is an immense place, it makes sense to search for evidence of life in more than one way. In addition to focusing on what we know about life on Earth, especially in extreme environments, astrobiology currently comprises three basic types of searches in space, each employing different technologies, looking in different places, and expecting to find different kinds of data: . ...
