... were entered in the atlas. ... In so doing lines were selected which yielded radial velocities close to the symbiotic velocity of MWC 560 (+35 km/s). ... The visible spectrum of MWC 560 is poor in absorption lines especially near the brightness maximum. In our atlas are visible only the blue-shifted components of , , NaI and FeII(42), interstellar lines NaI, a few diffuse interstellar bands (DIB) and telluric lines of and and, at length, traces of the spectra of the M giant. ...

These notes summarize an informal HDF-S session at the Joint ESO/Australia workshop ``Looking Deep in the Southern Sky,'' which was held in Sydney, Australia, on 10-12 December 1997. ... AAT: 1 night imaging in broad and narrow (20 Angstrom) bands on HDF-S + environs using the Taurus tunable filter. ... NTT: HDF-S + surrounding region to be imaged under the auspices of the ESO Imaging Survey (EIS). 15 x 15 arcminute field of view imaged in U, g, r, I, J and K. 13 nights allocated for Sept/Oct 1998? ...

... Many scientific institutions maintain bibliographies of articles published by their scientists and monitor references made to these publications; these figures are often used to evaluate the effectiveness of the institution. ... a) Identification of papers that are based, at least partly, on new data Publications based on observations can be subdivided into two groups: those presenting new, previously unreported data, and those that make use of already published data. ...

... I present results from several seasons of photometric observations of X--ray sources in the Orion OB1a and OB1b star formation regions. The initial goal was to measure the rotational periods of several dozen pre--main sequence (PMS) stars. ... Infrared and optical data confirm that 90% of the X--ray sources are PMS and about 10% of the PMS stars may have disks. ... I find rotation periods for five stars at confidence of greater than 99.9/ greater than 99/ at much lower confidence. ...

... This is not important for drift observations but poses a problem for any observing mode in which the telescope is moving while taking data, since the ALFA beams then will be rotating on the sky. ... The new mode is called ' sky angle tracking ' and is available for all existing observing modes. ... The next figure shows the distance between the beams in declination as a function of hour angle when the telescope is tracking a source with Dec=+10 from rise to set with a sky angle of 19 degrees. ...

... The first part of the Astropark that most people see represents our own Solar System. The Sun and the nine main planets are laid out here, so that you can compare their distances and sizes. ... The Sun - the closest star to Earth, represented by a giant archway at the same scale as the planets beyond. ... They move in orbits around the Sun, also marked out in the Astropark. Moons - in orbit around nearly seven of the planets, but not represented in the Astropark. ...
