Diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) and atomic lines are observed as interstellar absorptions in GALAH and other massive spectroscopic stellar surveys. By observing a given DIB toward many stars which are nearly in the same direction, but at different distances, one can reconstruct absorption sites along the line of sight. ...

... It seems likely that field-aligned potential drops (upward directed electric fields) are formed to create this effect (e.g., Weimer and Gurnett, 1993), although different wave-related schemes have also been suggested (e.g., Bryant et al., ... Auroral arcs have been related to large, perpendicular electric field structures, electrostatic shocks , observed mostly at geocentric distances 1.4 - 1.8 Re (9000 - 12000 km altitude; Mozer et al., 1977; Torbert and Mozer, 1978; Mozer et al., ...

... Direct observation of the vortex structure in high- T c superconductors in tilted magnetic fields. Abstract: . A high-resolution Bitter technique has been used to observe an effect of tilting the external magnetic field on the flux line lattice (FLL) in Tl 2 Ba 2 CaCu 2 O 8+x single crystals. ... The reason is believed to be that the formation of the equilibrium vortex state (vortex chains) was prevented by strong pinning, revealed for our crystals by the M(t) curves. ...

... The chemically peculiar star HD965 belongs to a rare type of very slow rotators. As far back as in the 90s, G.Mathys (ESO, Chile) supposed its extremely slow rotation as observing split Zeeman components in the spectrum, from which he measured the magnetic field on its surface. Field variation proved to be very slow, and G.Mathys determined that the variability period should be longer than two years. ... Up to now, only two stars with periods longer than 20 years are known. ...

RTT150 . ... This search system is designed for generating the necessary information on series of pointings (observations of each source consist of sets of exposures with different filters and sometimes with different exposure times) for observed sources.
