What is a Handler . ... mod_actions . ... A "handler" is an internal Apache representation of the action to be performed when a file is called. Generally, files have implicit handlers, based on the file type. Normally, all files are simply served by the server, but certain file types are "handled" separately. Apache 1.1 adds the ability to use handlers explicitly. ... The following directives will enable the send-as-is handler, which is used for files which contain their own HTTP headers. ...

... Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are located in external galaxies, their X-ray luminosities (10 39 - 10 41 erg/s) are thousand times greater than those of brightest black holes in the Galaxy. ULXs may be supercritical accretion disks around black holes of stellar masses (~10 Solar masses) like that in SS433, or they may be a hypothetical intermediate-mass black holes (hundreds - thousands Solar masses) with standard accretion disks. ... 2) The ULX progenitors were ejected from the star clusters. ...

... In collaboration with the STScI and with the NICMOS Investigation Definition Team we have been developing software to predict aspects of NICMOS performance and to analyze NICMOS grism data. Quick look analysis software has been developed to extract spectra from NICMOS grism images and matching direct images to support ground testing and in-orbit verification. ... Software is being developed at the STScI to ensure the proper calibration of data obtained with NICMOS. ...

... The evolution of a binary system can be described as the movement of a point in the parameter space , constituting both physical quantities (such as masses of binary components, their radii, luminosities, orbital period, etc., independently of direct observational measurability of these values Each binary traces a path (which we will call a ``track'') in this space, in a way strictly determined by the evolutionary scenario. ... Then the fraction of binaries lying inside is expressed by . ...

The "21-inch" (0.52 meter) Moore reflector celebrated its 50th year in 2005, just prior to retirement from its role as our primary research instrument. ... The primary telescope and its mounting were designed and constructed by the Louisville Astronomical Society between 1935 to 1955. The telescope is named for Walter L. Moore, who was responsible for coordinating its construction, and who tested and figured its primary mirror. ... It is presently stored at Moore Observatory. ...
