Meteors are more than just pretty lights in the sky. Since the majority of meteor-producing meteoroids originate from comets, they contain invaluable information about these objects not otherwise obtainable. ... One such possibility is the planet Mars. ... Taking into account the slower average speed of incoming material at the heliocentric distance of Mars from the Sun, a meteoroid of the same mass entering the martian atmosphere at 30km/sec would produce a meteor +0.5 mag fainter than at Earth. ...

... We have measured radio flux densities of BL Lacertae ( B2200+420 ) with the RATAN-600 radio telescope at 4.8, 7.9, 11.2 and 21.7 GHz during 6 October - 20 November, 2012 to study the detected ( ATel #4557, #4565, and #4568 ) flare. ... On 12 November flux density had notably risen to 8.30 +/- 0.19 Jy at 7.7 GHz, to 9.86 +/- 0.09 Jy at 11.2 GHz and to 11.70 +/- 0.3 Jy at 21.7 GHz. ... The spectral index changed from -0.08 +/- 0.02 to +0.23 +/- 0.02 at 11.2-21.7 GHz for October to November flux points...

... 2 April 1999 . The Nobeyama Radioheliograph data show that in the microwave range, besides large-scale trans-equatorial chains (see, e.g., the May 11-15, 1993 and November 1-4, 1993 events), there are also many examples displaying large and strongly evolving "longitudinal" or "internal" chains connecting remote active regions inside an active zone in one (northern or southern) hemisphere (the August 20-September 3, 1998 event). ...

... Three day radio-astronomical forecast of the proton activity of the Sun: The figure shows multiwave radio emission scans - graphs of the distribution of intensity I and circular polarization V across the solar disk, obtained at RATAN-600. ... According to this criterion, for a proton flare to arise, the flux of radio emission must be sufficiently high at short wavelengths (blue color scans) and should increase with time compared to the general intensity. ...

... We publish 16 Doppler imaging temperature maps for the years 1994-2002 of the active RS CVn star II Peg. ... Through Doppler imaging we want to study the spot evolution of the star and in particular compare this with previous results showing a cyclic spot behaviour and persistent active longitudes. ... The derived temperature maps are quite similar to the ones obtained earlier with a different methods, the main differences occurring in the spot latitudes and relative strength of the spot structures....
