... Take a particularly simple signal: a cosine wave. ... Now, we are going to stretch and shrink the wavelet along the time axis (we assume the data is in the time domain), and at each time compare the shape of the signal to that of the wavelet. ...

. You can compare any two versions of a file that is under the control of SCCS with the sccsdiff command: /usr/sccs/sccsdiff -r version -r version s. filename . Using this command produces a line by line difference between the two versions of the file. Results are shown in the same format as that produced by the diff command. Examples .

Is the Sun a Random Star? ... Looking for another Sun Conditions for habitability are not only determined by a planet's properties itself, they are given by the star­planet system characteristics (stellar type, planetary orbital parameters, and planetary masses). ... In the search for terrestrial planets around other Page 176 Proceedings of the 6th Australian Space Science Conference, 2006 stars, the simplest assumption is that the most Earth­like planets orbit Sun­like stars. ...

The theory predicts that the oscillation period should be proportional to the square root of the oscillating mass, including the mass of the clip. Note that gravity plays no part here: the oscillation period would be the same on the Moon or in zero-g. Denoting square root by SQRT, we have . ...

... THE DETERMINATION OF THE 'DIFFUSION COEFFICIENTS' AND . THE STELLAR WIND VELOCITIES FOR X-RAY BINARIES. ... 13, Moscow, Russia . ... In this work using the observed period changes for four systems: Vela X-1, GX 301-2, Her X-1 and Cen X-3 we determined D , the 'diffusion coefficient',-parameter from the Fokker-Planck equation. Using strong dependence of D on the velocity for Vela X-1 and GX 301-2, systems accreting from a stellar wind, we determined the stellar wind velocity. ...

... All the galaxies are divided into 4 groups depending on the environment type; every subsample contains more than 10 galaxies. ... An effect of environments is seen both for the nuclei and for the bulges: if we consider the clusters (Virgo and Ursa Ma jor) and group centers as dense environments and the field and group periphery as sparse environments, then in the dense environments the stellar populations of S0s are in average older by 4­5 Gyr than in the sparse ones. ...

Cosmic ray intensities (left) compared with predictions (right) from IBEX. The similarity between these observations and predictions as evidenced by the similar color regions supports the local galactic magnetic field direction determined from IBEX observations made from particles at vastly lower energies than the cosmic ray observations shown here. The blue area represents regions of lower fluxes of cosmic rays. ...

... Study of Mg-Fe-silicate glasses of variable composition. ... With the new data, the astrophysical discussion started in Paper I was continued and focussed on the comparison of the olivine glass data with IRAS LRS spectra of O-rich circumstellar envelopes around Mira stars. ... The new olivine glasses point to the interesting consequence that the temperature for silicate dust grains at the inner edge of circumstellar envelopes must be considerably higher than the values often given in the literature....

... Light weight and low power consumption combined with nearly quantum limited sensitivity and a wide tuning range of the superconducting local oscillator make SIR a perfect candidate for many practical applications. Superconducting Integrated Receiver (SIR) [1] comprises on one chip a low-noise SIS mixer with quasioptical antenna, an Flux-Flow Oscillator (FFO) acting as a Local Oscillator (LO) and a second SIS harmonic mixer (HM) for the FFO phase locking. ...
