Bykova Tomsk State University, Tomsk, Russia The problem of orbital stability of resonance Near­Earth asteroids (NEAs) is considered. Most of NEAs have multiple close approaches to the inner ma­ jor planets. ... The technique of the investigation of NEAs orbital stability has been devel­ oped by author on the basis of the construction of possible motion domains (R) of asteroids. ...

... The evolution of a binary system is considered as a sequence of stages the duration of which are defined by the shortest evolutionary time-scale of one of the binary components (see the list of the evolutionary states of stars in Sections 3 and 4). ... Then the code finds a new stage the binary should transit to, with this stage being determined by the evolutionary states of both components, and calculates it. ... However, one can use the algorithm described above to model their evolution. ...

Collection of the orbital elements | ... The errors of the spacecraft motion extrapolation outside the measuring time interval were estimated by using the comparison of SC positions calclulated by the forward integration ( extrapolation method) and backward integration ( interpolation methods). ... The character of these time shift of the ascending nodes ( D Tn) corresponds to the orbiting period errors, which arise during SC motion extrapolation outside the measuring intervals. ...

... In this poster we propose a hypothesis that within fixed assumptions about internal physics (opacity, thermodynamics, nuclear reactions) a strict relation between the surface helium abundance and the entropy of the adiabatic part of the convective zone exists for all solar models. This hypothesis is verified with models under simplified physics (Christensen­Dalsgaard 1988) and with six evolutionary models computed by Christensen­Dalsgaard (1992). ... 1990, Christensen­Dalsgaard 1991). ...

... All the parameters provided in this database have been obtained using the the MIRIAD ( Sault et al. 1995 ) task MBSPECT . MBSPECT makes a spectrum of the velocity (or frequency) axis of a cube. The spectrum is beam-weighted, over the width specified, for the other image axes. ... Robust parameters are calculated by using an algorithm which minimises the mean absolute deviation of the flux-weighted velocities. mask= This specifies the x-axis ranges to be excluded from any continuum fit. ...

... Column 1 gives the object name from the Case or Markarian catalogs. ... For Markarian galaxies the errors of coordinates usually lie inside 2'' (Lipovetsky [ 1983 ]). Column 4 gives the eye-estimated apparent blue magnitudes according to the same sources. ... Other names of a galaxy we give in column 7. ... In column 3 we cite the original emission-line code of the galaxy for the strength of [O III ] doublet according to the Case catalog (s - strong, m - medium, w - weak). ...

Comets necessarily obey the same physical laws as every other object. ... If one considers only two bodies -- either the Sun and a planet, or the Sun and a comet -- the smaller body appears to follow an elliptical path or orbit about the Sun, which is at one focus of the ellipse. ... Another quantity that is conserved is called angular momentum. ... Comets simply are bodies which in general have more angular momentum per unit mass than do planets and therefore move in more elongated orbits. ...

Next: Other deconvolution tasks Up: Image Deconvolution Previous: Computation . If you have used multi-frequency synthesis in the imaging stage, you will have to have considered a fly in the ointment - the flux density of the source will vary with frequency (as well as spatially). For detection and low dynamic-range work, mild spectral variation can generally be ignored. ... The Miriad deconvolution task mfclean can be used to avoid this distortion. ...
