USING THE CORRELATION BETWEEN ISGRI SURVEY RESULTS AND OTHER CATALOGUES TO AID SOURCE IDENTIFICATION John B. Stephen, A. Malizia and L. Bassani IASF-INAF, Via P. Gobetti 101, 40129 Bologna, ITALY, E-mail: stephen@iasfbo.inaf.it ABSTRACT In order to help in the identification of INTEGRAL/ISGRI sources, we have developed a software package which allows a rapid and detailed cross-correlation to be performed between various source catalogues. ... We show below some preliminary results from this analysis. ...

... The HH flow associated with young stellar object HL Tau has an exciting history and even until now the origin of some its features is not clear yet. ... Knotty structures of Herbig-Haro jets are common phenomena and knowing the origin of such structures is essential for understanding the processes of jet formation. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... On Sunday, March 23 rd , the television "superstation" TBS aired a show called "Fire From the Sky", yet another in a long line of documentaries about imminent doom from an asteroid collision. ... They aren't kidding when they say it's a matter of global life and death, and it's terrible that there isn't enough money being spent on searching for Earth crossing asteroids. ... Like "Asteroid", one of their animations showed a cloud of asteroids very close to each other. ...

One possible application of a solar sail is a spacecraft to warn Earth of approaching interplanetary disturbances and shocks. ... Spacecraft that can provide such a warning are currently stationed at (or near) the Lagrangian L1 point , between the Earth and the Sun--at about 4 times the distance of the moon and 1/100 times that of the Sun. ... Because of the greater distance from Earth, the Earth's pull there is weaker, not enough to make the spacecraft match the Earth's motion around the Sun. ...

... We report on the development of a Web agent which allows users to conveniently find information about specific objects or locations from astronomical resources on the World Wide Web. The HEASARC Astrobrowse agent takes a user-specified location and queries up to hundreds of resources on the Web to find information relevant to the given target or position. ... The types of resources the user can get include images, name resolution services, catalog queries or archive indices. ...

... The Sun has come all of one day away from breaking its record for the longest period of inactivity for the last decade - reaching a mid-summer low and falling into yet another state of "hibernation". Yesterday, on the first day of autumn, new sunspots appeared on the surface of the Sun following an absence of almost 50 days. ... The first low lasted 51 days, from 21 July until 11 September last year. ... Now, almost a year later, it seems the Sun has hit a new low almost as "deep" as the first. ...
