... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

ASTEROIDAL DAMAGE TO THE EARTH: IMPLICATIONS BY ASTEROIDS ­ RUBBLE PILES. ... 13, Moscow 119892, Russia, E-mail:san@sai.msu.ru In the cause of asteroids ­ rubble piles its effective cross-section of collision to the Earth is determined not by consolidated body, but by cluster of its fragments. Since the stage of rubble ­ piles may be ~108 years (see our communication at previous symposium), it may be significant for estimation the asteroidal damage to the Earth. ...

... We report on the preliminary results of experiments using a Bayesian cluster method to cluster objects present in photographic images of the POSS-II. ... We believe that the application of such algorithms to large-scale astronomical sky surveys can aid in cataloging the detected objects, and may even have the potential to discover new categories of objects. ... We have thus started to explore new clustering analysis and unsupervised classification techniques for this task. ...

One of the insteresting results of Chandra and XMM-Newton observatories is the discovery of sharp structures in the X-ray surface brightness of galaxy clusters. These structures (a.k.a. cold fronts) are likely associated with the contacted discontinuities formed when a hot gas flows over a colder gravitationally bound gas cloud. ...

... Tidal circularisation of white dwarfs and formation of sources of gravitational waves in globular clusters . ... I point out that a major fraction of white dwarfs tidally captured by the black hole may be destroyed by tidal inflation and rotational break-up during ongoing tidal circularisation, and therefore the formation of tight binaries is inhibited. However, some fraction may survive tidal circularisation through being spun up to high rotation rates where tidal interactions are less effetive. ...
