Why are there different versions of CIMA? Which version of CIMA should I choose? ... There is no CIMA log in my project directory --- what happened? ... If You are a normal, happy observer, You should choose the CIMA version with the highest version number, since that version contains the latest improvements and bug fixes. ... This means that programs like the data quick-look display and various ALFA instrument displays all exist in several versions just like the CIMA observing session itself. ...

... We have measured this "redshift" for the pink black holes, and allowed for it in our calculations. ... We see this effect in the emission from gas around these pink black holes, but it is far too small an effect to account for the pinkness. Thus the swirling motions of gas around or into the black holes cannot produc the colour. ... At first we thought that these things were normal blue black holes hidden behind clouds of interstellar dust, that absorbed the blue light and made them appear pink. ...

... One by one they took my friends away I guess this is indicative of what's happening to me == I'm going down swimming in gravy (whoa whoa) I'm swimmin around but I'm not in the Navy (whoa whoa) Now I'm alone and as naked as the day I was hatched and I prefer stuffing to potatoes but nobody asked smothered in the blood of cranberries listening to bad conversation about all the kids and the things that they did And Uncle Ron's constipation == Now it's ... I'll give you some hot dog!" ...

... redirect an entire server or directory to a single URL . ... stop/restrict robots . proxy SSL requests through your non-SSL server . There are two chief ways to redirect all requests for an entire server to a single location: one which requires the use of mod_rewrite , and another which uses a CGI script. First: if all you need to do is migrate a server from one name to another, simply use the Redirect directive, as supplied by mod_alias : Redirect / http://www.apache.org/ . ...

... The problem turned out to be that I was always using the same background in Photoshop, and when I made it transparent, the edge pixels, having been anti-aliased to merge with that color, did not turn transparent. Now I always use the same background color in Photoshop that I intend to use on my web page. ... Now, one of the big tricks here involves the translation from RGB mode to Indexed Colors. ... Note down the 2 colors it chose to dither together and hit Command-Z to undo the mode change. ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Bad Astronomy: The North Star, Polaris, is a very bright star. Good Astronomy: Polaris is a middling-bright star, easily missed. ... He said it was close to Polaris, the North Star, but he also said it was in the East. ... It's natural, I suppose, to think that such an important star should be bright, but really, that's a conceit, like thinking that the Earth is at the center of the Universe. If more people knew just why Polaris is the North Star, this Bad Idea would stop. ...

A special report by Katie Barnard on her work experience at Narrabri . ... I have been interested in astronomy for some time, and so I thought work experience would be a good idea to see what it was really like. ... In my time at the ATCA, I worked with Naomi McClure-Griffiths, a PhD student from the university of Minnesota. ... Naomi gave me some `cubes' (seen as movies) of different sections of the sky, from observations at Parkes, to look through and identify possible shells. ...

Next: The Scenario Machine: Operational Up: Evolution of Magnetic Rotators Previous: Ejector-propeller hysteresis . ... The length of this segment is determined by the eccentricity. ... In this case no hysteresis occurs and transitions E -- P and the reverse take place in symmetrical points of the orbit. ... Here EP means a mixed state of the rotator at which it is in the ejector state during one part of the orbit, and in the propeller state during the rest of the orbital cycle. ...

... Stars come in different colours and sizes. This new picture shows the famous Red Giant star called Betelgeuse (you say the name as Beetle-Juice ). ... In the photo, the fuzzy red, blue, and purple cloud around the star is the nebula. Since the nebula isn t as bright as Betelgeuse, astronomers have to block some of the star s light to be able to photograph it. ... Our Sun will eventually become a Red Giant star like Betelgeuse but not for another 5,000,000,000 years! ...

... PG 1115+080: A Gravitational Cloverleaf . ... Credit: CISCO , Subaru 8.3-m Telescope , NAOJ Explanation: All four blue images in the above photograph are the same object. The gravitational lens effect of the red, foreground, elliptical galaxy visible near image center creates a cloverleaf image of the single distant quasar . Light from the quasar is pulled around the massive galaxy in different paths, corresponding to different images. ... Publications with words: gravitational lens - quasar . ...

The silicates that produce the 10 and 18 micron features appear to be broadly similar to terrestrial minerals such as Forsterite and Enstatite. ... Where pre-solar silicate dust grains can be isolated from meteorite material, these also tend to be Mg-rich silicates rather than Fe-rich silicates. ... It has been suggested that the interstellar silicate grains have a different 10 micron feature profile than what is observed for the silicates around evolved stars. ...

... More on 51 Peg: . The discovery of a Jupiter--mass planet in orbit around the solar--type star 51Peg has been reported by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz (Geneva Observatory) on October 6th at the 9th Cambridge workshop on "cool stars, stellar systems, and the sun" held at Florence (Italy). ... Recall that the measurements of radial velocity only yield v sin i which in turn gives us M sin i. For most values of i, sin i will be greater than 0.5 and this gives a mass estimate of 0.5 Jupiter masses. ...

The trapping of particles by magnetic fields was first studied by Kristian Birkeland in Norway, starting around 1895. ... Poincare managed to solve the motion of charged particles near an isolated magnetic pole, showing that they spiraled around field lines and that they were repelled from regions of strong field. ... A more realistic problem, of more interest to Birkeland, was particle motion near a compact bar magnet or "dipole", which better approximated the field of the Earth or of his terrella. ...

... Moon Phase below . ... ARTICLE: Why the moon always shows us the same face . ... Before you continue reading, you should know that this was not always the case, i.e. the Moon once was rotating with respect to the Earth, so that on every night a terrestrial observer (if there was one, because this was long, long before mankind appeared on our planet, and even before any major animals had appeared) saw another face of the Moon. ... Figure 1 (not to scale) shows how we can imagine the system Earth-Moon...

... From the user's point of view, the widget consists of a text entry box and a pull down menu from which the user can select one of a set of predefined entries. ... Now, if you want to set the string in the entry section of the combo box, this is done by manipulating the entry widget directly: gtk_entry_set_text (GTK_ENTRY (GTK_COMBO (combo)->entry), "My String." To set the values in the popdown list, one uses the function: void gtk_combo_set_popdown_strings( GtkCombo *combo, GList *strings ); . ...
