The dust properties in the Large and Small Magellanic clouds (LMC/SMC) are studied using the HERITAGE Herschel Key Project photometric data in five bands from 100 to 500 m. Three simple models of dust emission were fit to the observations: a single temperature blackbody modified by a power-law emissivity (SMBB), a single temperature blackbody modified by a broken power-law emissivity (BEMBB), and two blackbodies with different temperatures, both modified by the same power-law emissivity (TTMBB). ...

... Termcap is a Unix idea, that makes it possible to write software that runs on a wide range of different terminals. ... If SM can't open TERMCAP as a file, it is taken to be the value of the entry for your terminal. ... A TERMCAP variable takes precedence over an entry in your `.sm' file. ... There is a problem with using the last line of the screen as the SM command line, and this is that some terminals use the same screen for graphics as for text, and your graph will merrily scroll away as you type...

Next: Redshift Distribution Up: Sample Identification Previous: Previously Identified Sources . ... In Figure 3, we plot the redshift distribution of DXRBS FSRQs opposite that of the 1 Jy and S4 samples. In Figure 4, we plot the redshift distribution of DXRBS BL Lacs opposite the Slew and 1 Jy samples. ... The apparent deficit of objects at the very highest luminosities is a result of the smaller area of sky covered by DXRBS compared to, e.g., the Slew and 1 Jy samples. ...

... The parameter y   characterizes the ratio between the gravitational and magnetic ``properties'' of a star and will, therefore, be called the gravimagnetic parameter . Two magnetic rotators having quite different magnetic fields, subjected to different external conditions but with identical gravimagnetic parameters, have similar magnetospheres, as long as the accretion rate is quite low ( ). ... For isolated rotators, the accretion rate  yr is assumed. ...

... For an input list of EBOXDETECT source locations, simultaneous maximum likelihood PSF fits to the source count distribution are performed in all energy bands of each EPIC telescope.
