Next: Examples of data contained Up: Electronic database Previous: Future plans . In astrophysics, the optical constants mainly are used to calculate the optical properties of scatterers, i.e. cross-sections, scattering matrix, etc. ... Optical properties derived from such models have been discussed in some books (see, e.g., [ 2 , 3 ]) and in principle can be calculated by using various light-scattering tools which are freely available via the internet [ 4 ]. ...

... ICND-96, Saratov, Russia. ... And though a number of efficient methods of digital sound compression is developed by far, there is still a need in new efficient methods. In this report we study a possibility of application of fractal methods to compression of speech signals. ... In this method, a speech frame is divided into larger pieces called domains, and smaller ones called regions, and an optimal set of affine transformations of domains into regions is calculated. ...

... We describe the optical morphological properties of the new 40 galaxies, derive the surface brightness profiles for 25 of them, and present the results of photometric decompositions of these profiles into a "bulge" (R 1/4 or exponential) and a disk component. ... Resolved, central compact sources are detected in about 50% of the galaxies. ... B. Irregular/exponential bulges typically host central compact sources. ... Many of the galaxies which host compact sources contain a barred structure. ...

... The sky distribution of the BCGs from the HSS sample is shown in Fig. 6 together with BCGs from the SBS and Case surveys (Izotov et al. [ 1993b ]; Pustilnik et al. ... First, we compare the apparent magnitude distributions of the three samples. ... The similar behaviour of the faint end of the apparent magnitude distributions infers that the Northern BCG sample may have a similar completeness down to this limiting magnitude. ...

Processes of formation of a dusty ionospheric plasma and physical processes in the plasma are discussed. ... A self-consistent model of the dusty ionosphere which allows for grain growth, sedimentation, and charging is developed. ... Wave properties of the dusty ionosphere are also discussed. ...

... Physical Properties of Crystals . ... The course is an introduction into crystal physics and consists of two introductory parts devoted to the basics of crystallography and tensor analysis and six main chapters in which the physical phenomena in anisotropic medium are described by the example of the elastic, electrical and magnetic crystal properties. The effect of symmetry is also discussed. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal properties. ... Effect of symmetry on crystal optical properties. ...

... The Science Operation Department is composed of Astronomers, Telescope Instruments Operators(TIOs) and Data Handling Administrators(DHAs). ... Astronomers have proposed several methods to quantitatively measure the amount of turbulence above the telescope, which the most common ones is Differential Image Motion Monitor (DIMM). In optical testing, the Hartmann test is the common method to test the quality of optical components. ... Hartmann mask consists of 48 lenses. ...

Next: ZGSC (Compressed GSC) and XSKYMAP . ... This is a preliminary report on an investigation of the quality and properties of plates digitized during creation of the Guide Star Catalog (GSC). The results will be vital for reclassifying GSC objects. ... Many objects are measured on more than one plate, and thus have multiple catalog entries. ... Among the shortcomings of the GSC are: biased magnitudes and incorrect classifications for certain objects, presence of artifact objects. ...

... The most important consequence of orbital eccentricity for the evolution of rotators can be understood without detailed calculations, and suggests the existence of two different types of binary systems separated by a critical eccentricity, (Gnusareva and Lipunov, 1985)[ 56 ]). ... Therefore, for a small part of its life the rotator will be in a mixed EP-state, being in the propeller state at periastron and at the ejector state close to apastron. ...

The best-fit lines correspond to the exponential-linear relation discussed in Sect. ... We present a new extensive analysis of the old problem of finding a satisfactory calibra- tion of the relation between the geometric albedo and some measurable polarization properties of the asteroids. To achieve our goals, we use all polarimetric data at our disposal. ...

... In this talk, I will discuss a study of the effect of ionization on the low end of HI mass function. The existence of a large population of low mass galaxies follows from CDM theory. ... HIDEEP found no low HI column density galaxies. One possible explanation is that the disks are "frozen". ... We assume that galaxies are exposed to an ionizing background radiation, from a uniform quasar distribution. ... We find a gap in the average column densities around N H which drops to 10 17 cm -2 . ...

Full entries for each object appear in alphabetical order; properties and functions not associated with any object appear in Chapter 2, "Top-Level Properties and Functions." ... Tables included in the description of each object summarize the object's methods and properties. Full entries for an object's methods and properties appear in alphabetical order after the object's entry. ...

... By taking advantage of atomic hydrogen (HI) observations obtained as part of the GALEX Arecibo SDSS and ALFALFA surveys, I will demonstrate that the combination of deep, targeted observations and spectral stacking of blind, large-area shallow surveys is critical in order to characterize how the gas content of galaxies depends on their structure, star formation activity and environment. ...

Modern Dynamic Methods of Determination of Parameters of Meteor Bodies . ... The study takes an approach in modelling the fireballs' mass and other properties from the rate of body deceleration in the atmosphere as opposed to conventionally used luminosity. An analytical model of the atmospheric entry is calculated for registered fireballs using published observational data and evaluating parameters describing drag and ablation of meteors and bolides along the luminous segment of the trajectory. ...
