... From the uvby photometry and proper motions for about 5500 nearby F stars we have found the following: (i) F stars , taken in narrow ranges of metallicity , show at [fe/H] 0 rather distinct cut-off in their distribution along the Main Sequence (MS) at the blue side, which is suggested to be an indication for the MS turn-off in stellar groups of fixed metallicity ; (ii) the corresponding turn-off age from theoretical isohrones strongly correlates with the ...

Super Rocket Targets . NPO MOLNIYA has been designing rockets-targets for over 30 years using the great experience in crea-ting anti-aircraft guided rockets (AGR) for C-25M. On the basis of B-300 anti-aircraft rockets which expired their service life, there were designed, tested and put into the serial production the following types of the rocket - ... The analogue of this system successfully passed the state tests with the ZVEZDA-4 rocket-target. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

The best way to do it is to find a scaner, open the passport, put it on the scaner, scan it with 300 dpi resolution in grayscale mode, save as JPEG file and then send the file to ysc@bmstu.ru and please send a copy to coordinator Irina Yurovskikh yurovskikh.i@mail.ru . ...

... NASA] Космическое агентство NASA сформулировало новую программу по созданию космического корабля многоразового использования второго поколения (Second Generation Reusable Launch Vehicle, 2nd Generation RLV), который должен быть гораздо безопаснее и дешевле современных ракет. Предполагается, что полеты этих кораблей начнутся в 2010 г. Напомним, что нынешние "шаттлы" считаются кораблями первого поколения. ... другие статьи .. ...
