... The HST uses an onboard model of its orbit to perform in real-time various control functions relating to spacecraft operations and observation support. ... New coefficients for the ephemeris are updated every other day, and are archived as FITS keywords for each HST observation data set. Using these coefficients,an observer can perform a variety of calibration and characterization calculations relating to the orbital position and velocity of the telescope. ...

... According to modern views on the evolution and origin of stars, most of the stars are members of binary systems. ... After the second explosion, the pairs tend to break up and neutron stars and/or black holes fly apart. High velocities of radio pulsars are apparently largely due to this effect. ... For all possible pairs the probability of trajectory approach at small distances for the epoch, corresponding to the age of the younger pulsar have been evaluated. ... Pulsars J0543+2329 and J0528+2200. ...

... Popper (1959) classified the eclipsing components as B8 V and B9.5 V. According to Wolff and Preston (1978) the primary component (B8) is a HgMn star. Spectroscopic elements were determined by Wyse (1936) from observations made in the years 1934 - 1935 and by Harper (1937) from observations 1935 -1936. ... Rachkovskaya (1985) according to Harper - 2.68 and 2.36 observed the star in the years 1967 -1968 and 1981 - 1982 and obtained the mass ratio q » 1. ...

The VIRGO project is a physics experiment; its aim is the detection of gravitational waves. ... It has not yet been possible to detect directly the gravitational waves: it remains one of the major challenges of experimental physics. ... Interferometric antennas for gravitational waves Gravitational waves distort space-time: along two perpendicular directions, the distances between fixed points will increase (resp. decrease), at the arrival of a gravitational wave. ...
