... At the US Naval Observatory, raw data from the interferometer is first reduced with CONSTRICTOR, which is a stand-alone program. ... Averaged raw data from CONSTRICTOR can be found in /home/constrictor on octans at the site. It is best to start up in a directory owned by the user, and then to enter the full path to the data file when opening it. ... If you have a file with unknown history, the data might have been calibrated, or they might not. ...

... There are two stars in the binary system: a donor star on the right and a black hole on the left (an infinitely small point in the center of a complex figure). ... The wind is ejected as a hollow cone; it has a funnel (the funnel opening angle in the figure) and thick walls (wall opening angle in the figure). The observer looks at the whole system and the supercritical disk from the right, and sees everything up to the wind photosphere (the red color in the figure). ...

The most recent leap second was added on 2012 June 30: The protocol files in this version have been updated to UTC1-TAI = -35. The following IAU Circular describes prior leap seconds. As announced by the IAU Central Bureau for Astronomical Telegrams in Circular No. 9004 on 11 December 2008, Bulletin C36 of the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service announced that a positive leap second will be added on 1 January 2009. ...

Underdetermined sets is a new type of data structures (terms) developed in Actor Prolog . ... The point is that an underdetermined set can include some indefinite rest (a tail) like a list in usual Prolog . At the same time, the order of elements of an underdetermined set can be arbitrary one and it does not affect results of unification of underdetermined sets. Moreover, Actor Prolog guarantees that a rest of an underdetermined set never contains elements that are explicitly given in the set. ...

. Right on cue: The 2004 Perseids spiked just as predictions based on computer models suggested they should. Particles shed by Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle in 1862 &mdash; the stream that has made one complete revolution since being released &mdash; created the main outburst. A second stream of particles, released in the 14th century, may have produced the second peak. Bill Cooke, MSFC / IMO

... Empirical and theoretical modeling of 3-D structures in the solar corona is confronted by the tremendous amount of data needed to represent phenomena with a large dynamic range both in size and magnitude, and with a rapid temporal evolution. Octree representation of the 3-D coronal electron distribution offers the right compromise between resolution and size, allowing computation of synthetic images of the solar corona. ... The time interval between images is one day. ...

The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

... Over the first 4 years, its X-ray telescopes eROSITA and ART-XC will survey the whole sky with a record sensitivity in the 0.5-10 keV energy band. ... The goal of the second international Spectrum-RG conference is to discuss the different scientific topics addressed by the mission, synergies with surveys at other wavelengths, and requirements to follow-up observations.Contributed talks and poster presentations are invited on the topics related to the SRG science goals. ...

... Kepler's Laws . ... Second Law . 12a. More on 2nd Law . ... Kepler's 2nd law prescribes the way the velocity V of an object orbiting a single center varies around its orbit: . The rate at which the line to the center ("radius vector") covers area does not change around the orbit." As noted in section #12 , this means that the object's velocity V increases when its distance r decreases, and vice versa. ... Because by Kepler's 2nd law, the Earth moves in its orbit a little faster in winter. ...
