Since the light from galaxies represents the integrated contribution of its consitutient stars, then we can learn about stellar populations in galaxies by modelling their light by summing up individual stellar spectra for different kinds of stars. ... The data cover the wavelength range 3500 - 9000 angstroms. ... Retrieve Digital Stellar Spectra Click on the appropriate spectral type. ... Note that the designation V means main sequence, IV means subgiants, III means giants, I means supergiant. ...

These observations are aimed at fully charactering FORS1 photometric system (UBVRI zero-points, color-terms and extinction coefficients) for the Tektronix 2048x2048 pixel CCD (24µm px) . To this aim, the two Landolt/Stetson photometric fields SA95 and SA101 will be observed on a number of epochs and at different airmasses during February and March 2007. ... SA101 . ... OBs for SA101 have to be observed during evenigh twilight (exceptions are expected for the second half of March) . ...

. This schematic diagram shows how scientists think the universe has evolved from the Big Bang to the present day. Data from the UKIRT, VLT, and Subaru observatories allowed astronomers to take four precise and comparable snapshots of the universe when it was, 2, 4, 6 and 9 billion years old, each containing hundreds of star-forming galaxies. By comparing the different snapshots, astronomers were able to accurately track what has changed over the past 11 billion years. // illustration by CXC/NASA/NOAO/KIPAC

This section describes the calculation by which Aristarchus used the duration of a total lunar eclipse to deduce the distance of the Moon. ... This lesson plan supplements: "How Distant is the Moon--1", section #8c: on disk Shipprc2.htm , on the web . ... The shadow of the Earth at the Moon's distance is narrower than the Earth, because the Sun is seen not as a point but as a disk 0.5 degrees wide. ... An eclipse of the Moon is the passage of the Moon through the shadow of the Earth. ...

adjustable array . The array in a subprogram has a variable dimension just as in Fortran 77 through that both the array name and the dimension (all dimensions) are dummy arguments. ... Array sections can be used here instead of arrays. array function . ... An array in a subprogram which is not local and has a certain data type and a certain rank. ... Each Fortran program has to consist of exactly one main program and and any number of subroutines, functions, modules and BLOCK DATA program units. ...
