... The Radon transform (also known as the Hough transform) is formulated as a family of line integrals through a two-dimensional function. ... The Radon transform provides us with a simple means of computing the FF plane of the autochirplet transform, by using the Wigner distribution, and arriving at a transform space that tells us basically the same information as the chirplet FF-plane, except that we benefit from the greater resolution of the Wigner distribution. ...

In this gallery are many images of Low Surface Brightness Galaxies which have recently been discovered and analyzed. ... The central surface brightness of this galaxy is 24.28 . Malin 2 This galaxy is another huge disk galaxy with a scale length of 15 kpc and a redshift of 15000 km/a. The high surface brightness knot in one of its spiral arms actually has the same color, luminosity and H-alpha equivalent width as the entire Large Magellanic Cloud . ... Truly it is a Low Surface Brightness Galaxy. ...

... Direct observation of the vortex structure in high- T c superconductors in tilted magnetic fields. Abstract: . A high-resolution Bitter technique has been used to observe an effect of tilting the external magnetic field on the flux line lattice (FLL) in Tl 2 Ba 2 CaCu 2 O 8+x single crystals. ... The reason is believed to be that the formation of the equilibrium vortex state (vortex chains) was prevented by strong pinning, revealed for our crystals by the M(t) curves. ...
