... Большинству любителей недоступны крупные телескопы типа как Алькор и Мицар,и они останавливают свой выбор на таких недорогих компактных и моблильных инструметнах как зрительные трубы и монокуляры. Самые распространенные среди них - ЗРТ-457 и МП 20х60. За три года работы с этими инструментами я выявил не мало их скрытых достоинств, впрочем как и недостатков и хочу ниже в кратце рассказать о них. ... Поговорим об оптических достоинствах трубы. Они несколько хуже, чем у монокуляра. ...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in HII regions: correlation with metallicity . ... We have perfomed the aperture photometry of HII regions using infrared images from telescopes Spitzer and Herschel at passbands 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, 8.0, 24, 70 and 160 m. Emission of PAHs are observed at passbands 3.6 - 8.0 m, 24 m is emission likely of hot small particles and finally large particles are responsible for emission at 70 and 160 m. We determine abundances of PAHs using model of Draine Li (2007) . ...
