... For this paper: postscript PPEUC CMB index 1 Introduction.. ... We present a new model for the formation of spherically symmetric clusters in an expanding Universe. Both the Universe and the collapsing cluster are governed by the same pressure less fluid equations for which a uniform initial density profile is assumed. ... The computation of photon paths allows us to evaluate the gravitational effects imprinted on a Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) photon passing through such an evolving mass. ...

... In this paper the new IRAF MSCRED and IMMATCHX packages and data obtained during recent Mosaic Imager engineering runs on the NOAO 4m (FOV 36 arcminutes, scale 0.26 arcseconds per pixel) and 0.9m (FOV 59 arcminutes, scale 0.43 arcseconds per pixel) telescopes are used to investigate the functional form of the plate solutions, the accuracy of the plate solutions before and after resampling and combining, and the accuracy of the flux conservation in the resampling and combining steps. ...

... 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. ...

. Two neighboring stars did not pass each other without incident early in their lives. More than 4 billion years ago, our Sun got into a property battle with a wandering star. Each star ran off with some of the other's dust and debris. A mixture of indigenous and captured material resulted from the stellar squabble.

Authors: Yu.G. Shevelev , V.A. Marsakov , . ... We have constructed and investigated properties of metallicity function of disk stars with different ages, proceeding from the statistically restored real altitude distributions of stars at the solar galactocentric distance. It is shown that the metallicity distribution of stars in each age range is not of Gaussian form, but it may be considered as a superposition of two normal distributions centered at -0.2 and 0.0 dex. ...
