... The Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is moving towards public domain access software for its data holdings. Several ADS services are already accessible through the World Wide Web (WWW) (e.g., abstract service, catalogs, Einstein archive) and more are planned. ... The main emphasis of the restructured ADS Project will be the operation and development of the ADS Astrophysics Science Information and Abstract Service (ASIAS) (formerly the ADS Abstract Service). ...

... The large body of near infrared observations presented in Testi et al. (1997; 1998) are analysed with the aim of characterizing the young stellar clusters surrounding Herbig Ae/Be stars. The results confirm the tendency of early Be stars to be surrounded by dense clusters of lower mass "companions", while Ae stars are never found to be associated with conspicuous groups. ... Only the most massive stars (10-20Msun) are found to be associated with dense (10^3 pc^-3) stellar clusters. ...

... Several attempts to discover the FICN signal in VLBI nutation series made during last years failed. ... We investigated several VLBI CPO series by means of spectral and wavelet analysis. It has been shown that there are several periodic signals with close amplitude around the expected FICN period without any prevailing one that can be reliably associated with the FICN. ... DATA ANALYSIS We analyzed several CPO series obtained in IVS analysis centers by means of spectral and wavelet analysis. ...

... The metal abundance gradient in the disk of the Galaxy is found from stars with abundance determination from detailed analysis: d[Fe/H]/dR=(-0.05?0.01) kpc -1 . It is shown that the gradient can be explained by the fact that the disk is constituted of two metallicity groups of stars with an abundance jump between the groups. ... По звездам с определениями [Fe/H] из детального анализа найден градиент металличности в диске Галактики: d[Fe/H]/dR=(-0.05?0.01) кпс -1 . ...

We review the evidence, from rotational modulation, for association of plages and spots on active binaries. ... There is a similar lack of evidence for BY Dra systems. The results can be interpreted as evidence for: (a) the presence of active longitudes which persist on some RS CVn stars for several years, (b) high filling factors in MgII emission and (c) lower filling factors, and therefore greater contrast, in SWP emission. ...

... Study of Mg-Fe-silicate glasses of variable composition. ... With the new data, the astrophysical discussion started in Paper I was continued and focussed on the comparison of the olivine glass data with IRAS LRS spectra of O-rich circumstellar envelopes around Mira stars. ... The new olivine glasses point to the interesting consequence that the temperature for silicate dust grains at the inner edge of circumstellar envelopes must be considerably higher than the values often given in the literature....
