... Abstract: We present Monte Carlo radiative transfer simulations for spiral galaxies modelled as a stellar disk and a two-phase clumpy dust distribution. ... As a general result, clumpy models are less opaque than the corresponding homogeneous models. ... 0.00 0.15 0.50 0.1 0.5 1.0 2.0 5.0 10.0 0.25 X . ... We have also produced several homogeneous models, to compare to the clumpy models. ... Homogeneous and clumpy models with the same tauV have the same dust mass. ...

... The magnetic field of the Earth has been investigated by satellites for several decades now, and enough of it is known to model its average strength and shape during different levels of overall magnetic activity. Presently the most used empirical global magnetic field models are the Tsyganenko models (1987, 1989) , referred to as T87 and T89, respectively, although even these consist of several submodels. ... Earth's magnetic field from T89c model during Kp=2 for different seasons. ... Res. ...

In a linear problem, if the errors on the observations have a gaussian distribution, the ``Maximum Likelihood Principle'' gives you the ``best estimate'' of the parameters as the solution of the so-called ``Least Squares Minimization'' that follows: . ... A certain number of numerical methods have been developed to solve the non--linear least squares problem, four have so far been implemented in MIDAS. ...

... Lightcurves of two satellites of Saturn, namely Hyperion (S7) and Phoebe (S9), were modeled using algorithms and programs developed for calculat­ ing the rotational dynamics and constructing theoretical lightcurves of planetary satellites. ... The problem of fitting an observed lightcurve with the model one is solved by varying the initial data and values of the parameters of the problem. ... The value of the MLCE calculated for the deduced initial data and values of the parameters is close to zero....

... According to the most popular cosmological paradigm, the greater part of the galaxy mass is accumulated in the dark matter halo. ... The polar ring galaxies (PRGs) reveal external rings or disks of gas, dust and stars rotating in a plane roughly perpendicular to the disk of the central galaxy. ...

... The resulting spectra were analyzed with a kinematic Monte Carlo model which allows estimation of the OH production rate, neutral gas outflow velocity, and distribution of the out-gassing from the nucleus. ... The best-fit model spectrum is shown together with the observed line. ... Both models are scaled to match the average off spectrum. When the same scaling is applied to the nucleus-centered model spectra, shown on the right, it is clear that only the quenched model matches the observations. ...
