... The Russian TESIS/ CORONAS-PHOTON Solar Observatory, which has been working in orbit since January 30th, 2009, has photographed one of the most important events in the build up to the upcoming solar cycle - the formation of our star's new southern belt of activity. The first magnetic fields of the new cycle in the southern hemisphere appeared on the Sun's surface on May 23-24th. ... The belt of activity is one of the primary concepts, characterizing the solar cycle. ...

The Pleiad(e)s were the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione, and half-sisters of the Hyades, whose mother was thra (`bright sky'; a different thra than the mother of Theseus). They were perhaps also half-sisters of the Hesperides, who were daughters of either Night alone, or Atlas and Hesperis (`evening'), or Ceto and Phorcys. ... Another Asterope was daughter of the river Cebren. ...

REPORT ON PIERRE DELIGNE FELLOWSHIP, 2010 SERGEY OBLEZIN During 2010 I have been working on developing a representation theory approach to mirror symmetry and quantum cohomology of homogeneous spaces, associated to Lie groups of classical type. According to Givental the glN -Whittaker functions, being solutions to the quantum cohomology D-module QH (FlN ) of the complete flag variety FlN = GLN (C)/B , describe the corresponding equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of FlN . ...
