CFITSIO Interface Library CFITSIO is a library of ANSI C routines for reading and writing FITS format data files. ... The CFITSIO library is built on Unix systems by typing: > ./configure [--prefix=/target/installation/path] > make (or 'make shared') > make install (this step is optional) at the operating system prompt. The configure command customizes the Makefile for the particular system, then the `make' command compiles the source files and builds the library. ...

The pale rock in the upper center of this image, about the size of a human forearm, includes a target called "Esperance," which was inspected by NASA's Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity. Data from the rover's alpha particle X-ray spectrometer (APXS) indicate that Esperance's composition is higher in aluminum and silica, and lower in calcium and iron, than other rocks Opportunity has examined in more than nine years on Mars. ...

For non-spherical isotropic particles, the classic variant of the RDG approximation does not include the anisotropy of the shape and hence does not give the correct Rayleigh limit, say, for small ellipsoids. ... We call this variant a modified RDG approximation (MRDG). ... First, the MRDG leads to the correct Rayleigh limit. ... The second approach to generalization of the RDG is connected with the use of the Born iterations for the scattering integral equation [ 95 , 124 , 132 , 264 ]. ...

Summary of the research statement "Geometry of hyp ercomplex manifolds" Andrey Soldatenkov The research pro ject is devoted to the study of the geometry of hypercomplex manifolds. A smooth manifold is called hypercomplex if it is equipped with a triple of integrable almost-complex structures satisfying quaternionic relations. There exist many examples of such manifolds including hyperkЁ ahler manifolds, nilmanifolds, Lie groups with hypercomplex structures and others. ...
