Though not so fast, and lacking some forms of data integrity check, this bus is so widely used to be nearly unavoidable. ...

... The choice of the spectrograph design (Fig.2) is determined by the quantity R, the overall dimensions of the PF cage and the restrictions on the rigidity of the structure of the device. ... As the camera's objective a fast 4-lens aplanat is used having a focal distance F cam =140 mm and a relative aperture of 1:1.8, the resolution at the centre is no less than 80 gr/mm, that over the field at a distance of 3 mm from the edge along the frame ( ) diagonal is 35 gr/mm. ...

... The HH flow associated with young stellar object HL Tau has an exciting history and even until now the origin of some its features is not clear yet. ... Knotty structures of Herbig-Haro jets are common phenomena and knowing the origin of such structures is essential for understanding the processes of jet formation. ...

... In this section, we develop a physical model of the secondary as a disk that is centrifugally supported in the radial direction and hydrostatically supported in the vertical direction. We assume that the disk is vertically isothermal and well mixed. ... where is the mean molecular mass of the gas, is the orbital period at the outer edge of the disk in years, and all of the mass of the secondary has been assumed to be concentrated near its center, so the Keplerian approximation is valid. ...

M83 has an angular size of 12 x 10 arcminutes and has very high surface brightness. ... The high surface brightness is due to a very high star formation rate. Galaxies which have high star formation rates generally have strong spiral structure and M83 is an excellent example of this. This is a blue band imaged acquired remotely by using the array controller (ARCON) and a Textronix 2048x2048 CCD device on the CTIO 1-m telescope. ... The image was acquired on the night of August 18th. ...
