... Star Atlas . ... stars . ... If neutron stars don't produce energy from fusion, like normal stars, how can they shine in visible light? ... Although it is true that neutron stars have, for the most part, consumed all their internal thermonuclear fuel, they tap into other energy sources to produce light. Indeed, neutron stars are remarkably "resourceful" and employ a variety of physical mechanisms to make themselves visible.A newborn neutron star is incredibly hot ? ... Atlas of the Stars . ...

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. ...

This section of AMPLE enables one to make ephemeris calculations in various coordinate systems (spherical, rectangular) connected with different main planes (equator, ecliptic, horizon) and having origin in different points: geocenter, any point on the Earth surface, the Sun, any major planet, any minor planet. The choice of some minor planet as a center gives possibility to find approaches of the minor planet with any set of major planets and minor planets. ... equinox . 1950 2000 true . ...
