When in the image window, the mouse now has a box shape with an arrow at the upper left corner. The mouse buttons act as follows: . LEFT - to move the center of the circle at the position of the arrow point. ... RIGHT - idle. center the circle at the point source by positioning the arrow point and clicking on the LEFT mouse button. A circle will appear at the arrow position. ...

A full explanation of the motion of trapped particles would be too abstract and mathematical for this level, but some basic ideas may be described on an intuitive level. The magnetic force on a moving particle is always perpendicular to the motion, as well as to the magnetic field lines. That is why the basic pattern is motion in a circle, around a magnetic field line. ... The best-known periodic motion is the back-and-forth swing of a pendulum, say of a weight suspended by a string (drawing). ...

RTT150 . Russian-Turkish 1.5-m Telescope . ... Telescope has two main foci (Cassegrain and Coude ) and allows to use six optical systems based on Ritchey-Chretien system with a common main mirror . At present scientific observations are being performed at the Cassegrain focus in main optical scheme with focal ratio of 1:7.7. ... flat . ... To use the Coude focus the removable flat diagonal mirror is also needed in the crossing point of declination axis and main optical axis of telescope. ...

... The Figure shows the parallactic angle in relation to the source position at (RA,DEC), the zenith of the telescope at (LST,AoLatitude), the hour Angle HA, and the azimuth direction AZ (in the picture the source has already transitted). ... Now suppose that a second feed was placed 1 beam width away from the central horn parallel to the azimuth arm. ... Figure 1. shows the parallactic angle rate versus azimuth angle for declinations 8 through 28 (spaced 1 degree steps from Arecibo's latitude). ...

... Exposure Time Calculator (ETC) . Survey processing . ... VISTA is a 4-m class wide field survey telescope for the southern hemisphere, equipped with a near infrared camera (1.65 degree diameter field of view at VISTA's nominal pixel size) containing 67 million pixels of mean size 0.34 arcsec and available broad band filters at Z,Y,J,H,K s and a narrow band filter at 1.18 micron. A wide field visible camera, if constructed, could also be used on VISTA. ... Tile . ... ESO VISTA Public Surveys . ...

... Just one: a very stringent requirement on the relative positions of Earth and Mars at the time of launch. ... Suppose the spacecraft which has landed on Mars is a robot , which collects a sample and immediately takes off again for its return trip. ... Since Earth and Mars constantly change their relative position, it stands to reason that if we sufficiently delay the return trip, Earth will move from position (2) relative to Mars to position (3), at which time the return trip can begin. ...

... The 220 Mirrors of CRTF . ... Recently, astronomers with the STACEE project have begun using CRTF to collect secondary light emitted when high-energy gamma rays strike the Earth's atmosphere. Photons in this range might allow further exploration of enigmatic gamma ray burst explosions, and might be emitted when cosmic rays from supernovae impact gas clouds in the interstellar medium . ...
