In the main part of this lecture, we will give an overview of the theory of fractal strings and of the associated complex fractal dimensions, with emphasis on the case of self-similar strings. ... These oscillations are expressed in terms of suitable explicit formulas (in the sense of number theory, but more general) and yield precise asymptotic expansions for certain geometric, dynamical or spectral counting functions associated to fractal strings. ...

http://hubblesite.org/newscenter/archive/releases/1996/22/text/ Probing the mysterious heart of the Crab Nebula, the tattered remains of a stellar cataclysm witnessed more than 900 years ago, astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have found that the Crab is even more dynamic than previously understood, based on a cosmic "movie" assembled from a series of Hubble observations. ... Because of this flickering, the neutron star is also called a "pulsar." ...
