... GCR and SCR are primary cosmic rays. 10-15 years after the discovery of cosmic radiation (1919) there emerged two main avenues of investigation in the physics of cosmic rays (CR): 1) nuclear - elucidation of the origin of elementary particles and nuclear interactions; and 2) astrophysical (space physics) - solution of the problem related to the origin and variations (changes in intensity) of CR. ... Besides, the CR flux in interplanetary space is, strictly speaking, not isotropic. ...

... NASA] Космическое агентство NASA сформулировало новую программу по созданию космического корабля многоразового использования второго поколения (Second Generation Reusable Launch Vehicle, 2nd Generation RLV), который должен быть гораздо безопаснее и дешевле современных ракет. Предполагается, что полеты этих кораблей начнутся в 2010 г. Напомним, что нынешние "шаттлы" считаются кораблями первого поколения. ... другие статьи .. ...

We present a catalogue of galaxies for which spatially resolved data on their internal kinematics have been published; there is no apriori restriction regarding their morphological type. The catalogue lists the references to the articles where the data are published, as well as a coded description of these data: observed emission (E) or absorption (A) data, optical (O) or radio (R) data, velocity (V) or velocity dispersion (D), radial profile (1) or 2D field (2). ...
