... The very demanding goal of 50 milliarcseconds root-mean-square (mas RMS) for the astrometric precision of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey implies that focus and collimation motions of the secondary must be very smooth. The Apache Point Observatory 3.5-m telescope secondary is a hot-gas-fusion borosilicate lightweight (25% of solid) mirror. ... Differential rotation provides tilt motions. ... Also, we made measurements with the indicators sensing the motion of the whiffletrees near actuators 1 and 2. ...

Abstract -- The strengths of magnetic fields in interstellar gas clouds are obtained through observations of the circular polarization of spectral line radiation. ... To infer information about these irregularities from the observational data, we develop statistical relationships between the rms values of the irregular component of the magnetic field and spatial variations in the circular polarization of the spectral line radiation. ...

... 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. ...
