Next: Examples of data contained Up: Electronic database Previous: Future plans . In astrophysics, the optical constants mainly are used to calculate the optical properties of scatterers, i.e. cross-sections, scattering matrix, etc. ... Optical properties derived from such models have been discussed in some books (see, e.g., [ 2 , 3 ]) and in principle can be calculated by using various light-scattering tools which are freely available via the internet [ 4 ]. ...

... Consequently, it is inappropriate to expand and in ordinary spherical harmonics. The proper expansion expresses both and simultaneously in terms of a particular order of generalized spherical harmonics. ... Generalized spherical harmonics start at , and for each , . ... Generalized spherical harmonics obey a sum rule analogous to a familiar one for ordinary spherical harmonics, but it includes an explicit phase factor which depends on the orientation of the two lines of sight. ...

According to the # 7.1. of the Acting Statutes/Regulations on the International Astronomy Olympiad there should be an Authorized National Representative (Astronomical) Organization (ANRAO) in every participating state: A national astronomical society, a department (section) of the EAAS or IAU in the state, a leading observatory, an astronomical department of a leading university, a ministry of education or another appropriate competent institution. ...

A statistical method for the evaluation of the probable amount of interlopers included in the most recently identified asteroid families is developed. ... An application to the most important families listed by Zappal\`a \etal\ {\bf [1995, Icarus in press]} allows to derive the probable amount of interlopers at different size ranges. ... The procedure developed in this paper allows to assess ``how many'' interlopers are probably included in the nominal member lists, but not ``which ones''. ...

... ICND-96, Saratov, Russia. ... And though a number of efficient methods of digital sound compression is developed by far, there is still a need in new efficient methods. In this report we study a possibility of application of fractal methods to compression of speech signals. ... In this method, a speech frame is divided into larger pieces called domains, and smaller ones called regions, and an optimal set of affine transformations of domains into regions is calculated. ...

... The algorithm has been successfully applied to both real and simulated astronomical data (Jefferies , 1993; Jefferies 1993) and its ability to accurately preserve photometry in the observed image has been demonstrated. ... In order to investigate the algorithm's performance without the influence of detector and photon noise we took the ``truth'' data set and convolved it with the given PSF to generate a noiseless image. ... The restored object and the two restored PSF's are shown in Fig. ...

In this paper we review our results on the properties and evolution of isolated neutron stars. We calculate space distributions of these objects for different assumptions about the kick velocity and show, that the distribution has a torus-like structure. We calculate the evolution of isolated neutron stars with and without magnetic field decay and give characteristic parameters for these cases with applications to ROSAT X-ray sources. ...

The possibility to have Visitor Instruments at the VLTI has been granted to permit innovative observations by teams using stand-alone instruments, free from a substantial fraction of the requirements for fully automated VLTI general use instruments. In addition, the Visitor Instruments could provide a powerful scientific/technical test bench for new instrumental concepts, eventually to be incorporated later in VLTI facility instruments. ... a thorough technical description of the instrument, . ...
