Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the linear polarization of starlight due to extinction by aligned dust grains when the starlight traverses a medium with irregular magnetic fields. This medium is intended to represent the optically thick components of interstellar clouds which are observed to make little, if any, contribution to the polarization of starlight. ...

... Properties of Dust Grains in Planetary Nebulae - I. The Ionized Region of NGC 6445 . ... Based on this model, we show from depletions in the gas phase elements that little grain destruction can have occurred in the ionized region of NGC 6445. ... The most likely conclusion is that grains are residing inside the ionized region of NGC 6445 and that the low temperature and flux of the grain emission are caused by the low luminosity of the central star and the low optical depth of the grains. ...

Studies of oscillation frequencies of many stars with very high precision gives insights into stellar evolution by knowing how the cores of stars change (starting in the bottom left corner in the sequence above) from hydrogen fusion-burning cores to helium fusion-burning cores, with intermediate stages where hydrogen fusion-burning shells expand into red giant sizes. A Hydrogen shell fusion star and a Helium core fusion star are indistinguishable when looking only at their surface properties. ...

... All the galaxies are divided into 4 groups depending on the environment type; every subsample contains more than 10 galaxies. ... An effect of environments is seen both for the nuclei and for the bulges: if we consider the clusters (Virgo and Ursa Ma jor) and group centers as dense environments and the field and group periphery as sparse environments, then in the dense environments the stellar populations of S0s are in average older by 4­5 Gyr than in the sparse ones. ...

An atom is the smallest "piece" of an element that still has the properties of that element. For example, an atom of gold is the smallest piece of gold that still acts like gold ? ... When many atoms come together, atoms tend to form molecules. A molecule is a combination of two or more atoms bonded together. For example, a molecule of water (designated by the symbol H 2 O) consists of two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom which are in a "relationship" ? ...

Properties of the Solar Eruptive Event of 19 October 2001, 09:40 UT . ... 1) IZMIRAN, Troitsk, Moscow Region, 142190 . ... Basing on IZMIRAN and NIRFI radio observations, we analyze an event which is characterized by sufficiently intense emission in the cm- and dm-ranges under almost total lack of metric bursts. This peculiarity appears to be caused by very slow speed (V~240 km/s) of a coronal mass ejection (CME) recorded in this event with SOHO/LASCO. ... Coronal Mass Ejections . ...
