Johann Kepler - a Legislator of the Sky. The laws of the planets movements put by Johann Kepler destroyed the thousand year old dogmas about the circles and spheres and opened the way to scientific understanding of celestial occurrences. ... The best object for observation was Mars - its orbit unlike the Earth's one has a noticeable eccentricity, the rotation period in comparison with Jupiter and Saturn is not too long and observation conditions are better than for Mercury and Venus. ...

... Supernovae physics (from Wikipedia ): A supernova is a stellar explosion that creates an extremely luminous object that is initially made of plasma ionized form of matter. ... The explosion expels much or all of a star's material at a velocity of up to a tenth the speed of light, driving a shock wave into the surrounding interstellar gas. ... Working on a time series of images in the Large Magellanic Cloud he detected a flaring star, possibly a supernova located in a distant galaxy behind the LMC. ...

Tail Probe is one of the satellites of the INTERBALL program. ... Collection of the orbital elements | ... Flight situation analysis during operations scheduling . ... Two stages of the orbital situation analysis are presented: . ... The satellites motion calculation during the flight situation analysis is based on the orbital elements, determined by the Ballistic center at KIAM RAN. The modified (by backward integration) orbital elements are usedduring the aposteriory situation analysis. ...

Pulsars (from PULSAting stARs) were discovered, albeit accidentally, by Jocelyn Bell at Cambridge in 1967. ... In addition, some pulsars are known to be members of binary systems in which the companion is another neutron star, a white dwarf and even a main sequence star. ... PSR B1913+16: . ... Although subsequent pulsar surveys with better sensitivity to short period objects have found a large number of similar objects, for 24 years PSR B1937+21 stayed as the most rapidly rotating neutron star known. ...

The Sun is our nearest star and the source of energy for life on Earth. ... For centuries astronomers wondered whether they were clouds floating in the Sun's atmosphere, but we now know that they really are huge regions of magnetic field, about as intense as the field at the poles of an iron magnet. ... Such abrupt events were named solar flares , and what made them especially interesting was that occasionally, after a prominent flare, a magnetic storm would erupt on Earth. ...

... The department was founded in late sixties by Prof. D.Ya.Martynov, who for many years was also the director of Sternberg Astronomical Institute. At present time, the head of the department is Prof. A.M.Cherepashchuk, a pupil of D.Ya.Martynov and his successor as the director of SAI. Since Prof. Martynov, the scientific activity of the department was primarily related to binary stars. ... The department consists of 15 members most of which have Ph.D. in Astrophysics. ...
