Authors: V.A. Marsakov , T.V. Borkova , . ... It is shown that general populations of globular clusters and metal-poor field stars are components at least of three subsystems occupying different volumes in the Galaxy. The thick disk and proto-disk subsystems are genetically associated with the Galaxy. ... It is argued that heavy-element enrichment and the collapse of the proto-galactic medium occurred mainly in the period between the formation of the proto-disk halo and thick disk subsystems. ...

We present results of new Monte Carlo calculations made with the DIRTY code of radiative transfer of stellar and scattered radiation for a dusty giant late-type galaxy like the Milky Way, which illustrate the effect of the attenuation of stellar light by internal dust on the integrated photometry of the individual bulge and disk components. ... In addition, we find that the structure of the dusty ISM affects more sensitively the observed magnitudes than the observed colors of both bulge and disk. ...

Abstract -- The strengths of magnetic fields in interstellar gas clouds are obtained through observations of the circular polarization of spectral line radiation. ... To infer information about these irregularities from the observational data, we develop statistical relationships between the rms values of the irregular component of the magnetic field and spatial variations in the circular polarization of the spectral line radiation. ...

... From the user's point of view, the widget consists of a text entry box and a pull down menu from which the user can select one of a set of predefined entries. ... Now, if you want to set the string in the entry section of the combo box, this is done by manipulating the entry widget directly: gtk_entry_set_text (GTK_ENTRY (GTK_COMBO (combo)->entry), "My String."
