... We present several applications of the AIPS++ environment as applied to the development of the Green Bank Telescope as well as current astrophysical problems. ... In particular, the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) project requires AIPS++ as an analysis environment. To accommodate and facilitate the GBT development, several sets of tools have been fashioned within AIPS++ at several points along the data path, from general calibration routines and data quality assessment to analysis and modeling. ...

... Initial mass function and binary stars . ... The principal goal of this study is to show that the real shape of the initial mass function for low- and intermediate-mass stars differs from the observed one. In particular, comparison of radii of eclipsing binary components and single stars shows a noticeable difference for B0V-G0V components of eclipsing binaries and single stars of the corresponding spectral type. ...

Next: Radial velocity of the Up: Optical spectrum of IRAS04296 Previous: Observations and spectra reduction . ... However, molecular emission features are only very rarely observed in the optical spectra of PPNe. ... On the other hand, it is well known that cometary nuclei spectra show prominent Swan band emission. In both spectra of IRAS04296 we have discovered strong emission in the (0;0) and (0;1) bands of the Swan system of the molecule. ... Now consider the case of IRAS04296. ...

. A filament stretches across the lower half of the Sun in this image captured by NASA s Solar Dynamics Observatory on February 10, 2015. Filaments are huge tubes of relatively cool solar material held high up in the corona by magnetic fields. Researchers simulated how the material moves in filament threads to explore how a particular type of motion could contribute to the extremely hot temperatures in the Sun s upper atmosphere, the corona.

It has long been suggested that star formation in giant molecular clouds may be triggered by external perturbations such as cloud-cloud collisions. ... Observations taken with the Australia Telescope Compact Array, the Mopra telescope and the Swedish-ESO Submillimetre Telescope (SEST) suggest that cloud-cloud collisions are also occurring in the southern giant molecular clouds G1.6-0.025, G265.1+1.5 (RCW 36) and G291.3-0.7 (RCW 57). The evidence for RCW36 and RCW 57 is presented here. ...

... One of the most obvious features of the plasma state is the rich variety of wave motions which plasmas can support. ... Some important wave parameters in general are: . ... The way the dispersion relation is calculated depends on the adopted plasma theory , which also determines the available wave modes. ... the more complicated the medium is, the more wave modes it support (we cannot have, e.g., ion plasma waves if ion motion is neglected in the first place, no matter how hot plasma is considered!)...
