The database contains references to the papers, data files and links to the Internet resources related to measurements and calculations of the optical constants in the wavelength interval from X-rays to radio domain. ... References to some useful books and reviews on the subject (e.g. the classical handbooks edited by E.D.Palik) and links to Internet collections of optical constants and personal WWW pages with related software were also placed in the database. You have arrived at our welcome page. ...

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. ...

DETERMINATION OF THE HUBBLE CONSTANT FROM THE GRAVITATIONAL STABILITY CRITERION OF THE GASEOUS DISKS, by A.V.Zasov, D.V.Bizyaev. ... Following proposition has been put forward: a total surface density of gas at radius $R_H$, where the mean densities of atomic ($\sigma_{HI}$) and molecular ($\sigma_{H_2}$) hydrogen are equal, corresponds (or proportional to) the critical gas density $\sigma_c$ for gravitational stability of gaseous disk. ...
