. To append the standard output from a command to a file use two >> (greater than) symbols followed by the name of the file. If the file does not exist it is created. For example: cat part1 > chapt2 cat part2 >> chapt2 . This creates a file called chapt2 with the same contents as part1 . It then reads the contents of part2 and appends them to the file chapt2 . The file chapt2 now contains the data from part1 followed by the data from part2 .

... Chandra Observation of LMXB in M84 . We present characteristics of the X-ray point source population in the M84 field as observed by Chandra ACIS-S. We find the galactic sources in M84 follow the stellar light profile, which imposes similar formation histories for stars in both single and binary systems. After correcting for incompleteness in the source detection, we find a log N-log S similar to that of the elliptical galaxy NGC4697. ...

Origin of the Small Solar System Bodies . ... During the last decades of the twentieth century joint efforts of scientist from different countries made it possible to develop a standard scenario of the origin of the Sun, planets and other bodies of the Solar System that satisfied basic observational data accumulated by astrophysics and comparative planetology. Following are brief description of this scenario and the problem of the origin of the small Solar System bodies. ...
