The efficiency of interaction of radiation with a particle and hence its optical properties depend on the particle chemical composition, size, shape, structure, etc. ... Particle size expressed in units of the wavelength of incident radiation, together with chemical composition, most strongly affects the optical properties of a scatterer. ... There are many methods to solve the light-scattering problem for a homogeneous spheroid (our survey of the light-scattering methods see here ). ...

... Just as magnetic storms are composed of substorms, the substorms themselves seem to be composed of smaller scale events. ... steplike expansion of the auroral bulge (Vorobjev and Rezenov, 1973; Sergeev and Yahnin, 1979; Murphree and Cogger, 1992; Nakamura et al., 1993) . ... 1990) . ... fine structure in the bursts of bremsstrahlung X-rays (Lazutin et al., ...

Orbital intersection . ... Structure of Taurid stream . ... Meteoroid swarm and Taurid fireballs . ... The following four diagrams schematically show four different Taurid orbits and the orbits of Earth and Jupiter. ... The Taurid stream contains particles (small, solid grains) at different stages of their precession cycles. ... The study of when a meteor stream can produce a meteor shower is the study of when precession brings orbits to intersection with Earth, or e.g. with Mars . ...

... For SIMS (Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry) analysis, a solid surface is bombarded by primary ions of some keV energy. ... The subsequent mass analysis of the emitted ions provides detailed information on the elemental and molecular composition of the surface. ... Extremely short ion pulses with a duration below . ... By rastering a fine-focussed ion beam over the surface, like an electron beam in an electron microprobe, mass resolved secondary ion images (chemical maps) can be obtained...

... The data inside CHAMELEON is organized in tables (e.g. ScanTable), structures (e.g. GenConfig), arrays of structures (e.g. scans), and plain arrays (e.g. VisSq). ... RawData: unaveraged, typically 2 ms integrations, flat arrays (bin counts, laser positions, quad cell counts) . ... ScanData: scan averaged data ( scans, bgscans ), output from CHAMELEON, as well as data used in AMOEBA, velocities (spectrosopy) , positions (relative astrometry), magnitudes (photometry), arrays of structures . ...

The quantity of dust in a spiral disk can be estimated using the dust's typical emission or the extinction of a known source. In this paper we compare two techniques, one based on emission and one on absorption, applied to sections of 14 disk galaxies. ... Hence, they depend differently on the average number and optical depth of ISM structures in the disk. The small-scale geometry of the cold ISM is critical for accurate models of the overall energy budget of spiral disks. ...

... Research objects and scientific purposes . Space scientific program includes development and launch of two supersmall spacecrafts "Universitetskiy" and "Kompas-2" intended for monitoring of radiation conditions near the Earth. ... All the studies conducted in the near-Earth space are characterised by strong radiation fields. ... The circular polar orbits, which cover all the near-Earth space, are the most favorable for comprehensive studies of the radiation conditions near the Earth. ...

Solar Flare Origin - critical analysis" Lev Pusti'lnik We analyze current approach to solar flare origin in 3 aspects: a. Pre-flare equilibrium state of current-magnetic structure above active region and its evolution to flare state, b. Possible reasons of stability loss with transition of system in flare state c. Flare energy release in turbulent current sheet and particle acceleration in this system. ...
