The picture above was made with this demo POV file and this Mirror object POV file . ... This is a magnifying mirror with a light around it, on an articulated arm, designed for wall-mounting. ... Behind this mirror in the image are two more mirrors, one above showing the front, and one below showing the arm in a bent position, and the whole thing roated so that you are effectively looking "up" at it. ... The two images below show details of the base, and the back of the mirror. ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... FIRST . ... This site is an initiative by MRAO Cambridge to provide improved access for the UK to the images being produced from the FIRST survey. ... Note that a small image returned by this server will have different gridding and orientation from an image of corresponding position and size returned by the FIRST CUTOUT server at the main site. ... This site may evolve to provide more of the facilities available at the FIRST main site in due course. ...

REPORT ON PIERRE DELIGNE FELLOWSHIP, 2010 SERGEY OBLEZIN During 2010 I have been working on developing a representation theory approach to mirror symmetry and quantum cohomology of homogeneous spaces, associated to Lie groups of classical type. According to Givental the glN -Whittaker functions, being solutions to the quantum cohomology D-module QH (FlN ) of the complete flag variety FlN = GLN (C)/B , describe the corresponding equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of FlN . ...

... The axial support is provided by 78 air pistons. ... The transverse support is provided by 38 air pistons, supported by cantilevers from the mirror cell, that act on the mirror local center of gravity surface. ... The locations where the transverse mirror support forces should be applied to the mirror are listed in Table 1 and illustrated in Figure 1. ... Figure 1: CAD drawing showing the 2.5-m primary mirror and the locations of the transverse support posts (black) and axial pneumatic pistons (blue...

Name of the HST instrument for which simulated polarization images are to be produced. ... Name of the instrument specific polarizing filter for simulated images (ignored for SPECIAL instrument). filtname = "" [name] . Name of the instrument specific colour filter for simulated images. ... The header parameter FILTER provides the filter name and POLANG the polarizer angle. ...

Never in the history of exploration has there been an undertaking quite like Apollo. ... Few of the half million ever had a chance to travel in space and fewer still walked on the Moon; but most were deeply dedicated and, for them, working on Apollo was much more than a job. ... Apollo was a start. ... By the time of the last three missions, crews were spending three days on the Moon and, out of each twenty-four hours, were staying outside and working hard for six to seven hours at a time. ...

... Tiny Tim has been used for generating Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) point-spread functions (PSFs) for deconvolution, algorithm testing, proposal planning, and optical studies. ... Tiny Tim is a stand-alone program for simulating HST PSFs as viewed with the on-board imaging cameras (WF/PC-1, WFPC2, FOC, COSTAR/FOC). ... The measured aberrations for FOC f/96, WF/PC-1 PC6, WFPC2, and COSTAR/FOC are used by
