Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

... An estimate the rotation period of cometary nuclei is important for understanding and describing the physical processes of the cometary activity. Unfortunately, the measurements of the rotation periods of the comet nucleus depend on the model assumptions and it is one of the main reasons for the scatter of the estimates given in various articles for a given comet. ... Right: the image of the comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 obtained at the 6-m telescope. ...

A High School Curriculum in Astrobiology . Astrobiology is a truly integrated science. For example, when extreme environments of Earth are examined as a springboard to the search for life in the Solar System, other subjects?the biology of microorganisms, the chemistry of nutrients, the process of respiration, and the nature of autotrophic habitats?are intimately entwined and must be considered in one breath, albeit a long one. ...

... The presence of small scale fluctuations of density (or of optical properties) in the spatial distribution of the dust would have important consequences for the modelling of molecular clouds because the UV light penetration and therefore the physical and chemical processes depend strongly on their structure (cf Boiss? ... We have developed methods to study in a direct way the amplitude of small scale variations of the extinction throughout translucent clouds ( mag). ...

The horn rotates through the same angle as the platform. ... The plots show the computed pointing error for different platform rotation angles (.ps) ( .pdf ): . This shows the pointing error in as you tilt the platform. ... B2209+080 has the pointing errors with no tilt. ... The computed pointing error for a platform tilt track the measured errors pretty well. ...

Microsymposium 34, MS047, 2001 SOME PROBLEMS OF THE EVOLUTION OF ASTEROIDS ­ RUBBLE PILE. ... Evidently, we can distinguish two processes: distant interactions, where there is no direct contact between separate fragments, and close contact interactions, where the fragments collide with one another. ... Such a rubble pile with a dust atmosphere differs from a cometary nucleus only in the absence of a volatile gas component, which is usually considered the cause of the appearance of cometary dust. ...

... One of the most widely used tools of Fourier analysis is the Parseval theorem. It enables the experimentalist to view how the `energy' in the signal is distributed among frequencies. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithms have made power spectra one of the obvious diagnostics tools during data acquisition, and energy maps are a versatile alternative. ... The result is an energy map (Fig. 9), showing the distribution of energy corresponding to the wavelet map (Fig. ...
