. Figure 3. Dark dimmings and bright post-eruption arcades in solar sources of the severest FDs over the solar cycle 23 in SOHO/EIT 195 е fixed-base difference images. The FD magnitude of the strongest disturbances and the dates and time of their registration are specified in the upper right corner of each panel. The dates and time of EIT images subjected to the subtraction are specified at the bottom of each panel.

... They worked out that first magnitude was on average 100 times brighter than the 6th magnitude star. ... This formed an equation of apparent magnitude Mv which is: Mv = -2.5 log f + constant were f is the flux of that star f = ( counts/ exposure) The images that we worked on were taken by the Polar Bear Telescope. ... One of these being that it will be combined with standard stars, which will be used to identify the area of stars and to also help identify other stars within the image. ...

Allows you to specify a drift scan: motion at a constant velocity along a great circle. ... The path starts at the new object position (though the telescope actually intersects the path later, see Subtleties ). ... Note that the units are always /sec for both axes. ... The velocity along the path is 0.01 /sec. ... The path is assumed to start when you hit the Slew button (more precisely, when the TCC parses the command). However, it takes the telescope awhile to slew to meet the specified path. ...

When Apache starts, it connects to some port and address on the local machine and waits for incoming requests. By default, it listens to all addresses on the machine, and to the port as specified by the Port directive in the server configuration. ... There are two directives used to restrict or specify which addresses and ports Apache listens to. ... Listen can be used to make a single Apache server listen to more than one address and/or port. ... Syntax: Listen [ port | IP-address:port ] . ...

... X Ray Moon . ... In this digital picture, pixel brightness corresponds to x-ray intensity. Consider the image in three parts: the bright hemisphere of the x-ray moon, the darker half of the moon, and the x-ray sky background. ... Still, the few x-ray photons which seem to come from the moon's dark half are currently thought to be caused by energetic particles in the solar wind bombarding the lunar surface. ...

... Content Model: one ore more OPTION elements . The SELECT element is used for single and multiple choice menus. ... Example: <SELECT NAME="flavor"> <OPTION>Vanilla <OPTION>Strawberry <OPTION>Rum and Raisin <OPTION>Peach and Orange </SELECT> . ... When you want a multiple choice menu, you need to include the MULTIPLE attribute with the SELECT element, e.g. <SELECT MULTIPLE NAME="flavor"> . ... NAME . ... The presence of this attribute denotes that the SELECT element defines a multiple choice menu. ...

... The Galactic low-mass X-ray binary GS 2023+338 was discovered during the burst on May 22, 1989 with the Japanise satellite Ginga (aka Galaxy). The flux reached 17 crabs (this unit of flux measurement is an bright X-ray source, Crab Nebula) at 10-35 keV. ... No other radio telescope worldwide carried out multi-frequency measurements. ... Upon 14 days the radio flux fell below the detection level at the RATAN-600 in relation to the decrease of the X-ray flux. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy: The North Star, Polaris, is a very bright star. Good Astronomy: Polaris is a middling-bright star, easily missed. ... He said it was close to Polaris, the North Star, but he also said it was in the East. ... It's natural, I suppose, to think that such an important star should be bright, but really, that's a conceit, like thinking that the Earth is at the center of the Universe. If more people knew just why Polaris is the North Star, this Bad Idea would stop. ...

... For more distant stars we must use other techniques. ... Hence if we see a distant galaxy and can pick out any cepheids lying within it, we can calculate its distance. ... Here then is another method to gauge the size of the Universe and there are yet more. volume at high enough temperature a nuclear fusion reaction sweeps across the white dwarf's surface and eventually we will see a spectacularly bright new star (hence nova) in our skies. ... Why is this relevant to the size of the Universe? ...
