... astro-ph . ... SAI VO . ... Spectra disentangling applied to the Hyades binary Theta^2 Tau AB: new orbit, orbital parallax and component properties . ... Theta^2 Tauri is a detached and single-lined interferometric-spectroscopic binary as well as the most massive binary system of the Hyades cluster. ... Due to the strategic position of the components in the turnoff region of the cluster, these new determinations imply stricter constraints for the age and the metallicity of the Hyades cluster. ...

The paper presents the 'Neptune-ME' information display system (IDS) as a spaceman console (SC) of the descent module of the 'Soyuz -TMA' piloted transport spaceship, and the integrated console (IC) of manual control loop for module equipment in the Russian segment of the 'Alpha' international space station. ... to control spaceship systems; . ... An integrated control console (ICC) which is hardware and software compatible with a IBM PC, is suggested as a basic console for the manual control loop. ...

... 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. ...

... A nasty dispute between the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization (SDIO) and the space-science community was narrowly averted early this year when SDI officials backed down on a planned launch of a satellite with a Russian-built nuclear reactor on board. ... Early Soviet space reactors orbited for two to three months, and two Soviet Topaz 1 experiments, one for six and one 12 months, created radiation belts that disrupted the operation of scientific satellites. ...
