The silicates that produce the 10 and 18 micron features appear to be broadly similar to terrestrial minerals such as Forsterite and Enstatite. ... Where pre-solar silicate dust grains can be isolated from meteorite material, these also tend to be Mg-rich silicates rather than Fe-rich silicates. ... It has been suggested that the interstellar silicate grains have a different 10 micron feature profile than what is observed for the silicates around evolved stars. ...

... Watchouts . ... It associates incorrect energies with line features below 1 keV by shifting them to lower energies and applying too much redistribution. Fig.1 compares the SASv6.0 result (red curve) with the SASv5.4 result (black curve) for a 0.8 keV line feature. ... Currently SAS 6.0 leads to obviously very bad fits at low energies, while the MOS-timing canned-response produces fits in excellent agreement with MOS small-window mode down to 100 eV (as shown in Fig.2). ...

... A detailed study of two consecutive bright points observed simultaneously with CDS, EIT and MDI is presented. The analysis of the evolution of the photospheric magnetic features and their coronal counterpart shows that there is a linear dependence between the EIT Fe XII 195? flux and the total magnetic flux of the photospheric bipolarity. ... In a follow-up study, we used wide slit (90arcsec240arcsec) movies of four EIT coronal bright points (BPs) obtained with CDS. ...

... Early studies of PMS stars focused on T associations, especially Taurus-Auriga. However, one might expect low mass star formation to be different in OB associations. ... He identified Orion OB1a as the stars northwest of the belt. Orion OB1b is composed of the stars near the belt, including the belt stars and Orionis. ...

. Comment on J1842+7946 . Comparing the brightnesses of the two main features seen in our 5 GHz image with higher frequency VLBI images available in the literature (at 8.4 GHz from the USNO database and at 15 GHz by Kellermann et al. (1998)), one can conclude that the NW component has a steeper spectrum since the SE one becomes relatively stronger as the observing frequency increases. VLBApls home page .
