... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

... If you have a program to convert data to MIDAS input format, fine. ... All you need to do is cannibalize the part of the existing program that reads the data, and add a short piece of code to re-format the data first as a flat ASCII file, one measurement per line; and then convert this to *.tbl format. ... It's just like the process of creating a program-star table. ... You may decide to write a short MIDAS script to apply your format-conversion program and the edited *.fmt file to each night's data...

... Developments within the past triennium The 2 most significant activities of the WG during the 2006-2009 triennium were to produce a new version of the formal FITS standard document, which precisely defines the requirements of the FITS format, and to create a new registry for documenting existing FITS conventions. ... The registry provides a convenient central location for documenting the various FITS keywords or other FITS data structures that are used by each convention. ...

... For whatever reason, there are people that hate NFS (Network File System). ... Mark has claimed, and it has been widely repeated, that it is impossible to provide concurrent access to mbox-format files with IMAP. ... In the case of IMAP though, the answers being offered about mbx over NFS or about concurrent access to mbox files are not the rare kind of answers. ... The way the most common IMAP server implementations work is that you connect to a master IMAP server process, and then you authenticate...

The original files with the data were in different formats. ... Such files were named "standard data files" and linked to the database. They can be easily transformed to any desirable format by a code. Here we present two simple computer programs of this kind. ... When running the code, you can specify columns in the output file: wavelength, energy (eV) or wavenumber (cm -1 ) as the first column, and complex refractive index or dielectric function as the second and third columns. ...

OptInt PmWiki : Pm Wiki / Upgrading From Pm Wiki 1 . This page gives suggestions for upgrading an existing PmWiki 1.x installation to use PmWiki 2.0. In this page we assume that a site administrator already has a site running using PmWiki version 1.x or earlier in a somewhat standard configuration, and wants to upgrade to the 2.0 software.
