We present results of new Monte Carlo calculations made with the DIRTY code of radiative transfer of stellar and scattered radiation for a dusty giant late-type galaxy like the Milky Way, which illustrate the effect of the attenuation of stellar light by internal dust on the integrated photometry of the individual bulge and disk components. ... In addition, we find that the structure of the dusty ISM affects more sensitively the observed magnitudes than the observed colors of both bulge and disk. ...

Optical/IR infrastructure priority setting process The Town Hall community meeting agreed that the "base" component of Gemini (i.e. the current 6.19% + Aspen program) is the community's highest priority, and that it should be wholly funded under NCRIS (i.e. without the LIEF or university contributions of the present arrangement). ... Infrastructure funded through NCRIS should serve the research and innovation system broadly, not just the host/funded institutions. ...

Astro Space Center of P.N.Lebedev Physical Institute , Profsoyuznaya 84/32, Moscow 117810, Russia . We argue that the contribution of cosmic gravitational waves into the large-scale CMBR anisotropy can exceed for a broad class of the inflationary models with effective -term producing the standard local spectrum of primordial cosmological perturbations. ...

... We have observed and studied critical supercurrents, Ic, in cross-type Nb-Cu/Ni-Nb junctions with Josephson layers prepared from diluted ferromagnetic alloys. For suitable values of the exchange energy in the ferromagnet and the F-layer thickness we have observed Ic(T) oscillation with vanishing Ic for the definite values of T and dF. ... Critical supercurrents, Ic, in Nb-Cu(1-x)Ni(x)-Nb Josephson SFS junctions with F-layers prepared from ferromagnetic Cu(1-x)Ni(x) alloys have been studied. ...
