... Up: Science Software Applications . ... It has extensions for creating GUI (Tk) and object-oriented ([incr tcl]) applications. Several Tcl-based tools that may be used for astronomical and other scientific applications have been created and are discussed. One example is ptcl , which registers PGPLOT functions as Tcl commands, creating a powerful interactive plotting package. ... Both programs use the same C code, Tcl commands, and [incr tcl] classes; only the GUIs are different. ...

Astronomy Picture of the Day . Colors of Mercury . ... 1.03.2013 . ... Washington Explanation: The colors of the solar system's innermost planet are enhanced in this tantalizing view , based on global image data from the Mercury-orbiting MESSENGER spacecraft. Human eyes would not discern the clear color differences but they are real none the less, indicating distinct chemical, mineralogical, and physical regions across the cratered surface. ...

Three sixth-form students from St Patrick's Grammar School, Armagh , used the Faulkes Telescope South in Australia in April to observe and measure HW Virginis , an unusual "binary" or double star system suspected to host one or two extrasolar planets orbiting the central stellar pair. ... Armagh Observatory and associated researchers hope to develop this work to look for further evidence of planet-hosting binary star...

The perturbation method is based on the small-parameter expansion of an unknown solution of the light scattering problem in a vicinity of the exact solution. ... The only probably exclusion is the case of anisotropic particles for which the rigid solution is either impossible or too complicated. For such problems the perturbation method can give information of the first approximation, which is important for understanding of the basic principles of influences of the material anisotropy. ...

... Maxim was one of the leading analysts of Russia space activities, those who set the basis for the open independent analysis of then-Soviet space program. q In the early 1990s the small blue paperback book became a real breakthrough.

... 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....

... Since GCVS IV, there was no new GCVS edition. ... Main reasons for the automatic-survey new variables remaining outside the GCVS for a long time:  different level of detail of the classification systems, no perfect software for automatic classification available;  individual approach to each star that was always used in the GCVS cannot be applied any longer, but the experience of automatically- updated catalogs evidences for the number of errors ...
