Home Search Collections Journals About Contact us My IOPscience Sapphire shaped crystals for medicine This content has been downloaded from IOPscience. ... We have developed a new kind of medical instruments and devices for laser photodynamic and thermal therapy, laser surgery, fluorescent diagnostics, and cryosurgery based on sapphire crystals of vari ous shapes with capillary channels in their volume. ... This development has given rise to the emergence of essentially new areas of application. ...

Slew limit control to protect the telescope and hardware is not completely implemented in softare. This system is not recommended for unattended operation unless safety limit switches are installed that will stop motion that could exceed the telescope's mechanical constraints. We use a tilt switch on the OTA and mechanical limit switches on the RA axis to prevent motions that would go beyond safe limits. ...

Operating Instructions Starlock PEC Utility Tool For use with Meade Starlock Equipped Telescopes Only PEC Utility The PEC Utility Tool allows you greater control over the Periodic Error Correction functions of your Starlock equipped telescope. ... Sharpening: The sharpening function makes the error corrections determined by Starlock be applied more aggressively while chasing small variations in the tracking. ... Sharpening, on the other hand, tends to increase the magnitude of the corrections applied. ...

... Results Let me recall that the general goal of my research project was to try to prove a weaker version of Tate Conjecture for crystalline cohomology of algebraic varieties -- roughly speaking, one wanted to prove that for a smooth algebraic variety over a finite field of characteristic $p$, the pro-$p$ completion of its algebraic $K$-theory can be expressed in terms of the Frobenius action on cristalline cohomology. ... Other part of the project are less problematic. ...

... It was found that the Sun lies 9?2 pc above the plane of hte Galactic disk in the direction of North Galactic pole and that F0-F9 stars contribute 0.0035 M /pc 3 to the density of the Galactic disk. ... We used this method to determine the scale height of the subsystem of F stars of the Galactic disk, Z 0 =160?10 pc. ... It is suggested that scale height of the metal-poor stars subsystem is due to the infall of the metall-poor intergalactic gas onto the disk. ...

USSR Venus Orbiters . ... Venera 15 and Venera 16 were a two-spacecraft mission designed to use 8-centimeter (3-inch) band, side-looking radar mappers to study the surface properties of Venus . ... Each spacecraft consisted of a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and a radio altimeter. ... The Venera 15 and 16 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems were identical, and were used to map the surface of Venus at a resolution of 1 to 2 kilometers (.6 to 1.2 miles) over a period of 8 months. ...

Shefer Research Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, Tomsk State University, Tomsk, Russia On the basis of the theory of intermediate orbits developed earlier by the au­ thor [1], a new approach to the solution of the problem of preliminary orbit determination is suggested. This approach enables to take into account the main perturbations in celestial body motion. ...

... Precisely one month ago, on 11 July 2009, the last active area of the new solar cycle disappeared from the surface of the Sun. Over the 30 days following this, neither observers on Earth nor devices in space have been able to detect the emergence of any sunspots. ... Therefore, it seems that our star has once again returned to a state of deep solar "winter", following several sparks of activity in May-June 2009. ... To date, this period has lasted 30 days. ...

The T-matrix or transition matrix is well known in the quantum theory of scattering [ 56 ] where one also uses the Heisenberg S-matrix connected with the T-matrix by the relation . In contrast to the coordinate representation in the integral equation method, where the scattered and incident fields are connected by the Green function, the T-matrix connects the coefficients of the expansions of the scattered and incident fields in terms of a complete system of the vector basis functions. ...
