... spectrum . ... The photons we detect originate in the outermost layers, or atmosphere, of the star. In order to interpret stellar spectra, it is necessary to construct models which accurately represent the structure of a stellar atmosphere and the transfer of radiation from the stellar interior into interstellar space. For the study of helium stars and other stellar remnants, we in Armagh use several computer programs, of which sterne and spectrum are the most important. sterne . ...

... An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Phenomena in Complex Systems . ... In this work the approach to recording, storing and associative retrieval of multimedia information is proposed. For this purpose the method for recording and storing the information on the trajectories of the nonlinear dynamic systems is used. Principles of recording, allowing to retrieve the desired record from the database of audio records by an arbitrary piece of the record we are looking for, are proposed. ...

... More recently, I have been concerned with observing masers located in the circumstellar shells generated by red giant stars in their mass-loss phase, and in what we can therefore learn about the late stages of stellar evolution. 100 mJy are now undetectable after ~12 years, aka the DEATH of an OH/IR star or its cyclical evolution back to a Mira variable. ... I find that this momentum flux is sufficient to support the largest observed rates of AGB mass-loss. last updated: 14 January 2015 . ...
