Shell scripts can act like standard UNIX commands and take arguments from the command line. Arguments are passed from the command line into a shell program using the positional parameters $1 through to $9 . Each parameter corresponds to the position of the argument on the command line. ... For example: cat printps # This script converts ASCII files to PostScript # and sends them to the PostScript printer ps1 # It uses a local utility "a2ps" a2ps $* | lpr -Pps1 printps elm.txt vi.ref msg . ...

... Luminosity (L) · · · · A source's luminosity is the power that it emits in radiation. ... NB Astronomers often say `flux' when they mean `flux density' · SI units are Wm-2Hz -1 -26 filter · Also used are Jy 10 Wm-2Hz -1 E= РРРF d dA dt Specific Intensity, Surface Brightness (I) · Specific intensity (or surface brightness) is the power received (or emitted) per unit area per unit frequency per unit solid angle. ч F at surface of a spherical source = I · · Specific intensity is independent of distance...

. The >10, >50, and >100 MeV proton flux profiles in the 'Bastille Day' event of 20.01.2005 (No. 81 in the Main Table) illustrating the approach for estimation of the proton spectral parameter ? = lg (J 10 /J 100 ) . Proton fluxes for this parameter were estimated from a leading prominent bump in GOES time profiles marked by arrows. Proton flux peaks coinciding with sudden commencements ( SC ) of geomagnetic storms were not considered.

... Using the uvby -photometry and proper motion data for about 5500 F stars within 80 pc from the Sun, we have studied velocity ellipsoid parameters and obtained the following results. 1) The sizw of all wllipsoid semiaxes increase systematically for groups of stars with the decrease of both temperature (at constant metallicity) and metallicity (at constant temperature). ... As a result, each of the three parameters - temperature, metallicity and velocity dispersion - is an age indicator. ...
