... Electric Forces . 19.Motion in a Circle . ... In the absence of forces, motion in a straight line and constant velocity continues indefinitely. ... Each rotation the stone covers a distance . ... Since its velocity v equals the distance it moves in one second, one finds . ... while the actual motion brings it to some point D on the circle, whose center will be denoted by O. In the absence of forces, motion in a straight line and constant velocity continues indefinitely. ...

... Artist's rendering of solar sail. One such method is the use of a solar sail , relying on the pressure of sunlight. ... When the sail faces the Sun squarely, the pressure of sunlight counteracts the Sun's pull and only enables the satellite to circle the Sun in a slightly larger orbit. ... The starship is propelled by a huge solar sail, pushed by tight beams of light from lasers which are powered by sunlight and orbit the Sun. ... The solar sail home page . ...

... Binary orbits in the acceleration/period plane . Circular Orbits . ... We first present the equations for the period and acceleration of a pulsar in an eccentric binary system as a function of its position in the orbit. ... In Freire, Kramer & Lyne (2001) (from where most of this text and following equations are taken), we describe in more detail how circular binary orbits can be determined from the observed periods and accelerations of the pulsar. ... where is the orbital period of the binary. ...

Next: Particle Background Rejection Up: Detection Efficiency Previous: Front Illumination . ... The method requires that the CCD substrate be etched from the rear towards the depletion layer boundary. The device can be illuminated through this rear surface, which has a much thinner dead layer than the electrode side. ... The corresponding detection efficiency data are presented in Figure 7, and compared with the predicted data for a 20 m thick depletion layer. ...

All stars derive their energy through the thermonuclear fusion of light elements in to heavy elements. High temperatures are required so that the mutual electrostatic repulsion of the protons in each fusing atomic nucleus is overcome. ... Elements with more protons in their nuclei require higher temperatures. ... This sequence is now shown in the animation below. ... First Step of the Proton-Proton Chain Narration .

As of September 10, 2013, MAST calibrated data products for WFC3/UVIS contain additional header extensions describing the image distortion. ... However, in order to be compatible with the updated DrizzlePac software (which expects a separate solution for each chip, as required by the new WFC3/UVIS correction), the format of the ACS D2IMFILE has changed, as shown below. ...

... 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. ...

... These trajectories have an initial flight from the Earth to a large distance (of about 1.5 million km), the following passive flight to the Moon's orbit, an approach to the Moon with a decrease of an energy of a particle (spacecraft) selenocentric motion to a negative value and the temporary capture in an elliptic orbit of the Moon's satellite. ... Several trajectories of this type are determined. ... Ivashkin V. V. On optimal trajectories of space flight to the Moon in the Earth--Moon--Sun system. ...

ION AND ELECTRON ENERGY DETECTOR PAN-2 . ... The energy and angular distributions of charged particles can bring further information on the nature and spatial scales of magnetospheres processes. ... It permits the fast measurements of energy and angular parameters of charged particles in the range 40eV-40keV. ... The sensor unit is an electron electrostatic, axially symmetrical, toroidal analyzer. ... The energy range for both types of charged particles must stepped according to the logarithmic scale. ...

... The perceptron structure, on the basis of which the database is built, is defined by a number of the input and output parameters and a required accuracy. ... The output perceptron data are the expansion coefficients of the scattering matrix elements in series of the generalized spherical functions. ... As the cluster structure depends on the generation conditions the expansion coefficients were averaged over 5--7 realizations of the clusters (for N . ... is the coefficient number. ...

T he Siding Spring Survey (SSS) is a Near-Earth Object search program that utilises the 0.5-m Uppsala Schmidt Telescope at Siding Spring Observatory, N.S.W., Australia. ...
