... The first task assumes the searching for chemical composition and sizes of particles which give the wavelength dependence of the extinction efficiencies close to the observed dependence of . Figure 7: Wavelength dependence of the extinction efficiency factors for homogeneous spherical particles of different sizes consisting of astronomical silicate and amorphous carbon. The dashed segment shows the approximate wavelength dependence of the mean galactic extinction curve at optical wavelengths. ...

This Directory contains Images of f-plots & tables of ionospheric station Magadan, repreasented according to years(all parameters for 1999,2000,...)and repreasented according to different parameters- (Tables of different parameters).

Galileo showed convincingly that heavy objects fell no faster that light ones. ... If an iron ball was pulled down with a much greater force than a wooden one of the same size, why didn't it fall any faster? ... 1) It is harder to lift. ... It is the fact that the loaded wagon has a greater mass that gives it a larger inertia , a larger tendency to oppose any change in its state of rest or of constant motion in a straight line. ... One important quantity was the body mass of the astronauts. ...

Institute of Terrestrial Magnetism, Ionosphere, and Radiowave Propagation, Russian Academy of Sciences, Troitsk, Moscow region, 142190 Russia . e-mail: karp@izmiran.ru . ... Since the MIT shape strongly depends on magnetic activity, quiet conditions (1 <= Kp <= 3) were selected to study the MIT shape diurnal variations; i.e., very quiet and slightly disturbed conditions were not considered. ... DEPENDENCE OF THE MIT SHAPE ON MAGNETIC ACTIVITY . ...

... The photometric accuracy of the data is often limited by the quality of the flatfield used to calibrate the data (see "Determining the "Best" Reference Files" on page 45-14 as well as the WWW Reference File and Closure Flat Memos). ... Large gradients caused by F122M. Due to the Earth's albedo, some broadband filters had to be taken in conjunction with a neutral density filter (either F8ND or F122M) to obtain sufficient numbers of unsaturated earthflat observations for creating reference files. ...

The $RVS_HOME/bin/rvs.sh script is used to start the RVS Server components. ... Stopping the RVS Server The following command can be used to stop all components executed using the 'rvs.sh start' command. shell% $RVS_HOME/bin/rvs.sh stop NOTE: This command DOES NOT stop processes started using the rvs-*.sh commands. ...

This group of four pages describes how the Arecibo 430 MHz radar makes simple measurements in the ionosphere. ... Radar Reflections From the Ionosphere . ... Or How are radio and TV stations like radars?) ... Consider two radio stations located on a mountain transmitting to a nearby city. ... A radar is like a radio station, but it has a receiver that picks up radio waves reflected from objects (targets). ... Although a radio station transmits continously, a radar can transmit short bursts of waves. ...

. Light bounces differently through binoculars according to the juxtaposition of the prisms. Porro-prism binoculars are generally preferred for astronomical use because they provide total internal reflection. Rick Johnson

... 2010 March 2 . M78 and Reflecting Dust Clouds in Orion . ... Explanation: An eerie blue glow and ominous columns of dark dust highlight M78 and other bright reflection nebula in the constellation of Orion . The dark filamentary dust not only absorbs light, but also reflects the light of several bright blue stars that formed recently in the nebula. ...

... During the analysis of the surveys carried out on RATAN-600, it was found that almost one fifth of the detected sources shows significant radio flux variations. ... We used the data from "Cold" radio surveys carried out with RATAN-600 in 1980-1994 to search for radio sources with significant flux variability. ... On possibility of detection of variable sources using the data of Cold surveys carried out on RATAN-600. ... Detection of Variable Sources Using the Data of "Cold" Surveys. ...
