... The combined event list takes from the intermediate event lists all of the events (combined into a single table), the collections of CCD-specific exposure tables and Good Time Interval (GTI) tables, and the collections of node-specific bad pixel tables and rejectable pixel tables. Name collisions among tables copied in from the intermediate event lists are avoided by placing the corresponding CCD number at the eighth character of the extension name. ... table : EVENTS -- evlistcomb . ... int32 . ...

This photograph shows the Large Magellanic Cloud, a neighbouring galaxy to the Milky Way. ... By studying how their light changes and other properties of these systems, astronomers can measure the distances to eclipsing binaries accurately. A long series of observations of these objects has now led to the most accurate determination so far of the distance to the Large Magellanic Cloud тАФ a crucial step in the determination of distances across the universe. ...

... Stars . ... By admin August 13, 2013 Posted in: Stars . This is a Digitized Sky Survey image of HD 140283, the oldest star with a well-determined age in our galaxy. ... However astronomers are refining their models of exactly how stars work all the time.Тљ The estimated age of 16 billion years had an uncertainty of two billion years from the inaccuracy of its measured distance alone, if any of the predicted details of the star?s interior processes were off this uncertainty could be larger still. ...

... The author of the cover picture is Vasilisa Verkhodanova. The picture symbolizes our perception of the world. The modified emblem of the SAO unifying the 6-m optical telescope and the raditelescope RATAN-600 of SAO RAS is placed in the center of the radio galaxy isophotes. From the one hand, we can investigate the properties of radio galaxies with these (and other) telescopes, and try to study physical processes providing their activity. ...

About us . ... Telescopes . ... Apart from the 6-meter telescope BTA two small telescopes are operative at SAO: the 1-m and 0.6-m telescopes, both manufactured by Carl Zeiss, Jena, are located near the BTA. ...

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. ...

... All the galaxies are divided into 4 groups depending on the environment type; every subsample contains more than 10 galaxies. ... An effect of environments is seen both for the nuclei and for the bulges: if we consider the clusters (Virgo and Ursa Ma jor) and group centers as dense environments and the field and group periphery as sparse environments, then in the dense environments the stellar populations of S0s are in average older by 4­5 Gyr than in the sparse ones. ...
