... Ceresт?? bright spots show unexpected changes . ... CERES | ... Observations made using the HARPS spectrograph at the European Southern Observatory s (ESO) La Silla Observatory in Chile have revealed unexpected changes in the bright spots on the dwarf planet Ceres. Although Ceres appears as little more than a point of light from Earth, careful study of its light shows not only the changes expected as Ceres rotates, but also that the spots brighten during the day and also show other variations. ...

... We have calculated the binary coalescence rate with time using the ``Scenario Machine'' code, which allows us to simulate evolution of large ensembles of binary stars in an artificial galaxy using a Monte Carlo method (see Lipunov 1992, Lipunov et al 1994, 1995 and references therein). ... The source evolution in a galaxy with given star formation rate is thus calculated as , where is the redshift at the turn-on of star formation, which is the second important parameter of the model. ...

... 314 Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems XIII, eds. F. Ochsenbein, M. Allen, & D. Egret (San Francisco: ASP), 812 . ... Abstract: The calculation of flux upper limits in the source-free ("background") regions of photon-limited images is complicated by instrumental and statistical modeling and requires non-trivial computational effort. ... The principal component in this is the time taken to pre-process and handle the 30 GB of RASS data rather than the calculation of each upper limit. ...

... Restrictions ) are used. If specified form of output is EMP then astrometric equatorial coordinates are printed in the form usual for Ephemerides of Minor Planets, with formal precision of 0.01 minute of time in R.A. and 0.1 minute of arc in declination. ... It should be noted that the near-opposition ephemerides are not calculated for bodies/ points with numbers from –12 to 0 (in case they are included into task for computation of such ephemerides only their names are displayed in the results). ...

Perhaps the greatest theoretical achievement of physics in the 19th century was the discovery of electromagnetic waves. ... It is possible to use this to define a unit of electric charge, as the charge which repels a similar charge at a distance of, say, 1 meter, with a force of unit strength (actual formulas make this precise). ... But "field" originally only meant the force a magnet or an electric charge could expect at a point in space, if it were placed there. ...

... From the observed direction of interplanetary magnetic field lines, we believe this field comes from the Sun, carried by magnetic field lines dragged out by the solar wind . ... That is why magnetic field-line loops tend to keep back the solar wind, unlike the outward-bound lines in the "coronal holes" between them. ... The magnetic field at all these points is already so weak that the solar wind overpowers it and shifts its field lines, while its own motion--radially outward--remains unchanged. ...

The Russian Parliament will soon consider a bill that would restructure the Russian space program, 35 years after the launch оf Sputnik. ...
