... 2006 March 13 . Z Machine Sets Unexpected Earth Temperature Record . ... The plasma reached a temperature in excess of two billion Kelvin , making it arguably the hottest human made thing ever in the history of the Earth and, for a brief time, hotter than the interiors of stars. ...

... Authors: M. Livio 1 , G.I. Ogilvie 1,2 , J.E. Pringle 1,2 We critically assess the role of the Blandford-Znajek mechanism in the powering of outflows from accretion disk-fed black holes. ... In this case, we show that the electromagnetic output from the inner disk regions is expected in general to dominate over that from the hole. Thus the spin (or not) of the hole is probably irrelevant to the expected electromagnetic power output from the system. ... huizinga@stsci.edu . ...

... These are ``quirks'' rather than ``bugs''. Below is a list of quirks. When loading a file and ``Reset Intensity Upon File Load'' is disabled, the intensity range of the previous image will be used. ... When moving between two images (such as when blinking, or when loading a new image), the display system attempts to retain the old image parameters (i.e. zoom box). What is retained are the corners of the zoom box measured in image pixel co-ordinates, not world co-ordinates. ...

The pipeline by default interpolates across the bad columns in the REDL CCD when it creates the master bias, but does not so when it processes the science data. This inconsistency can create boxy emission-like features as seen in the figure below. ...
