Comment on J0513-2159 . Our image shows an extension to about 5 mas SE from the brightest feature. The EVN 8 GHz image by Dallacasa et al. (1998), with about five times larger resolution, shows an extension from the brightest feature roughly opposite to our direction. As noted by Dallacasa et al. (1998), the structure detected has a highly inverted spectrum, which, together with the reported variability in the source, could explain the structural disagreement. ...

The revision of the MASS/DIMM star catalogue N. Shatsky, V. Kornilov March 16, 2008 Abstract The compilation of the (updated) version of the MASS (MASS/DIMM) device target catalogue is described. ... Then the list was cleaned according to following criteria: I. Remove stars too faint for a MASS device. ... Here the color equation of the Sternb erg device was taken: M AS S mag = V mag + 0.45 (B - V ); stars with M AS S mag > 3.2 were removed. ... This was made based on the GCVS4.2 catalogue data. ...

... The goal of this course is to introduce some -- very interesting -- basic examples and notions of combinatorial game theory, following the book "How to win your mathematical games", by Berlekamp, Conway and Guy. ... So, for every game there is a winning strategy, and to find one one can use the well-known idea of winning/losing positions. ... Temperature theory. We will see the limits of the association of numbers and games: some positions can not be associated to a single real number! ...
