The ESA/ESO Astronomy Exercise Series 2 . The Distance to Messier 100 as Determined by Cepheid Variable Stars . ... The small variations in distance to the individual Cepheid variable stars in the Cloud are negligible compared with the much larger distance to the SMC. ... In this way Cepheid variable stars can be used as one of the 'standard candles' in the Universe that act either as distance indicators themselves or can be used to calibrate (or set the zero point for) other distance indicators. ...

spaceweb@oulu.fi - last update: 11 February 1999, 0820 UT (RR) . Ionospheric and magnetospheric current systems create disturbances in the geomagnetic field. Thus, by measuring these effects with ground based magnetometers, one can monitor the magnetospheric activity (e.g., the development of geomagnetic storms and substorms ) continuosly. ... For these reasons the ground magnetic perturbations are usually expressed in terms of "equivalent" ionospheric currents. ...

This diagram shows the six superimposed "layers" of the CSS table model. This diagram illustrates the algorithm for calculating a cell's final background. ... The diagram shows how, looking down on the six rectangles, one may compute the background color of each cell. ... A cell without a background color in the top layer is depicted as a "window" onto the lower layers, which give its final background color. ...

. The relation between ellipticity and size. Red data points are the observed data; most of them have elongated shapes, and larger galaxies tend to have larger ellipticities. Gray-colored regions represent the probability distributions calculated with the computer simulations, in which two galaxies are located at so close distance that they are blended as an elongated galaxy, as shown in the right pictures schematically.

Dr John Chambers has made detailed computer simulations of the origin and formation of the Earth and the inner planets. These build upon earlier work by Chambers and George Wetherill, of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, whose computer calculations had predicted that planets would tend to have elliptical orbits rather than the almost-circular ones we see in the Solar System. ...
