It is based on the fact, that all stars cross the disk plane several times during their Galactic orbital period. ... We have used our representative sample of nearby disk F2-G2 stars Marsakov & Shevelev (1995) in which fundamental stellar parameters was determined on the basis of published date on uvby-photometry, proper motion and radial velocities. ...

There are 2 main problems with the standard Big Bang model. ... These are determined by the particular density of the universe. ... Early 1980s, Alan Guth suggested new epoch should be added, known as inflationary epoch, lasting between 10 -35 and 10 -24 seconds . ... Gravity became separate force at 10E(-43) seconds after big bang, when temperature 10E(32) K . Strong force became separate force at 10E(-35) seconds, or beginning of inflationary epoch, when temperature 10E(27) K . ...

Two major reasons: the number of stars isn't really seven (it's many more), and they all have different brightnesses, so that you see more or fewer of them depending on viewing conditions. The brightness of stars is measured on the magnitude scale, where the most prominent stars in the sky are around 1st magnitude, and the faintest you can see with your eye are about 6th. ... I think this makes it quite likely that the list will be truncated at Taygeta, giving six visible stars. ...

... Optical constants of amorpous SiO 2 and GeO 2 in the region of valence band. ... The optical constants were determined by 4 methods: (i) Measurements of reflectivity of polarized radiation incident at 3 different angles following by solution of the Fresnel equations; (ii) Measurements of trasmittance (for tablettes of ultra-fine powder); (iii) A combined method applied to both kind of the data following by solution of Fresnel equation for the normal incidence; (iv) Kramers-Kronig method. ...

The convection zone depth versus the envelope entropy for the three opacity tables. ... The influence of opacity on the standard solar model parameters Increasing opacities from CS70 up to LAOL (WKM) (both in the core and the radiative zone) raises helium content by 4--5%. ... Solar models with modified opacities . ...

. Mars was imaged in great detail in 2005. New research indicates Earth's core formed under different conditions from those that existed on Mars. One possible explanation for this is the difference in mass between the two planets. With Earth being eight times larger than Mars, the pressure of core-formation could be higher. Different silicate phases also may have been involved. NASA/JPL/USGS

... Under conditions of the Earth gravitation we are using the method of semi-natural simulation of linear accelerations in the centrifuges with a mobile cab for simulation of G-loads, originating in a space flight. ... The major factor of the orbital flight, affecting a cosmonaut, is a weightlessness state, which causes essential changes in cardiovascular and vestibular systems operation. ... Under the Earth conditions you can "execute" a short-term space flight according to the following cyclogram: . ...
