... The department was founded in late sixties by Prof. D.Ya.Martynov, who for many years was also the director of Sternberg Astronomical Institute. At present time, the head of the department is Prof. A.M.Cherepashchuk, a pupil of D.Ya.Martynov and his successor as the director of SAI. Since Prof. Martynov, the scientific activity of the department was primarily related to binary stars. ... The department consists of 15 members most of which have Ph.D. in Astrophysics. ...

... A rough estimation is that in the United States there is one planetarium per 100,000 population, ranging in size from the Hayden Planetarium's 20-meter dome seating 430 people, to three-meter inflatable portable domes where children sit on the floor. ... Together dblo associates make a huge impact in the architecture, interior design and development arena in London. ... With the holidays around the corner what better way to spoil your family than with your very own private home cinema. ...

... The change in the temperature dependence of the resistance, R ( T ), of ceramic YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7 - x as oxygen is removed from the sample has been studied. The superconducting transition temperature shifts progressively downward in the process. ... The temperature dependence of the resistivity, ( T ), is linear, with a progressively increasing slope, only at T > 400 K. It is suggested that oxygen condenses on Cu-O chains at T 400 K.

КАЛЕНДАРЬ КОНФЕРЕНЦИЙ First Announcement Workshop Presupernovae, Supernovae and Supernova Remnants Pushchino June 3 -- 7, 1996 The purpose of the Workshop is to give an opportunity for both astronomers and theoretical astrophysicists to meet together for a critical discussion of the hot problems of physics of supernovae and their impact on the surrounding medium from both the points of view --- observational and theoretical. ... Stellar remnants of supernovae (neutron stars, black holes). ...

The Archeops experiment aimed at measuring the cosmic background emitted just after the Big Bang. The study of this radiation is essential to obtain precise information on the evolution of the Universe: density, Hubble constant, age of the Universe.. To achieve this goal, measurements have been done with devices cooled down at 100mK temperature placed at the focus of a warm telescope. ... 28960 visitors . ...
