... An OBJECT column gives the name of the object observed (usually a star name). ... In critical cases, it is common practice to measure sky on two or more positions around a target object, and these positions must be identified. ... A general treatment of this problem requires a column called OBJECT, bearing the usual name of the object (as in the star tables); a column labelled STARSKY, to distinguish between star+sky, star alone, or sky alone; and additional columns to identify the sky position. ...

Emission Line Diagnostics in a ``No UV Bump'' Quasar PHL909 Smita Mathur, Belinda Wilkes, Martin Elvis and Jonathan McDowell Abstract PHL909 is a quasar with unusually low ultraviolet luminosity (blue bump strength C UV=IR = \Gamma0:20 compared to an average value of 0:4 (McDowell et al. ... The intrinsic continuum of PHL909 ( i.e. as seen by the BELR ) may thus be similar to the `standard' continuum, with a big blue bump, reddened along the line of sight. ...

... Star Atlas . ... stars . ... Nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium powers stars, but fusion requires a lot of energy. Where does this energy come from? ... You re in good company: This question also stumped the physicists who first tried to understand nuclear fusion in stars. In a star s core, all atomic nuclei have been separated from their electrons, so each hydrogen atom is really just a proton and thus holds a positive charge. ...

A cluster of such loops was observed on the solar disk in active region NOAA11934, in the Si iv 1402.8 spectral raster and 1400 slit-jaw (SJ) images. ...

... The Advanced X-ray Astrophysics Facility's (AXAF) High and Low energy transmission gratings (HETG, LETG) data require new tools and data structures to support x-ray dispersive spectroscopy. ... The sky coordinates, which are referenced to the telescope mirror node and therefore independent of the grating reference node, are only useful for the imaging of zero order and the filtering of grating arm photons. ... For more details on the AXAF grating flight processing software, see: . ...

... Currently, there is very little information on comets which are active beyond the orbit of Jupiter. ... Previous observations conducted by our team with the SAO RAS 6-m telescope showed that some of these comets have extended tails dissimilar to the tails of comets forming at close heliocentric distances. ... We for the first time measured the linear polarization of scattered emission for the two distant comets C/2010 S1 (LINEAR) and C/2010 R1 (LINEAR) at heliocentric distances of 5.9-7.0 au. ...

Short-Period Comets: Origin and Terrestrial Impact Hazard . ... The model is consistent with the basic observed distributions of near-parabolic comets, short-period comets, Centaurs and high-eccentricity trans-Neptunian objects.This model requires that initial objects in the early Solar System are concentrated to the outer planetary region, and the physical lifetime of comets in the inner planetary region at the present epoch is an increasing function of initial perihelion distances. ...
