ABSTRACT: Both previous radiomessages for aliens, Arecibo 1974 and Evpatoria 1999 (see http://ebe.allwebco.com/Science for details) were the logical ones and represented the binary stream of FM information, which should be arranged into two-dimensional forms to perceive by eye-like sense-organ. ... So, I suggest to implement the 1st Theremin Concert for Aliens from Arecibo or Evpatoria Radar facility. ... The theremin was invented 80 years ago, in 1920 by Leon Theremin. ...

... In order to compare the number of different evolutionary stages obtained and X-ray luminosity of the chosen X-ray sources with the observed galactic values we use the sum of C/O+O/C , where C and O are the calculated and observed values of a given binary type, respectively. If we make comparison for a number of different binary species (for example, we compare the number of CV, number of X-ray pulsars,   total X-ray luminosity of LMXB, etc.), we write this criterion in the form: . ...
