... Stellar Evolution is driven entirely by the never ending battle between Pressure and Gravity . As imbalances are reached, the star is driven to find a new Energy source. ... Pressure and gravitational forces are equal, the star is stable and its core is sufficiently hot to fuse Hydrogen into Helium More about main sequence stars . ... The luminosity generated by the core fusion of Helium into Carbon is far greater than the shell luminosity associated with the fusion of Hydrogen into Helium. ...

Electron-Bombarded, Back-Illuminated CCD Sensors . For Low-Light-Level Imaging Applications . ... Damage to the gate structure oxide layers from keV level X-rays will likely result in increased dark current and decreased full-well capacity. ... Figure 14 shows the increase in dark current versus incident electron energies. ... The back-thinned CCD's 'lifetime' is defined, herein, to be a 50 electron per pixel increase in CCD dark current per 16.7 millisecond integration period. ...

... Denis Puy . ... More recently, Puy & Signore (1995), from this simple description, but with a more complete chemistry (primordial , HD and LiH molecules) considered the three phases of the protoclouds supposed to be initially spherical: i) a linear evolution which approximately follows the expansion, ii) a turn around epoch ( ) when the protocloud reaches its maximum value, and iii) a non-linear evolution or the collapse of the protocloud. ...

... The picture shows a 2-dimensional sketch of the outflowing wind of a quasar (Elvis 2000, Astrophysical Journal , vol.545, p.63-76). In the funnel-shaped disk wind Elvis (2000) model a wind arises from a restricted range of radii on the accretion disk around the central black hole. Initially the wind makes a large angle to the disk plane (and so is roughly cylindrical). ... Looking through the quasi-cylindrical part of the wind we see UV and X-ray warm absorbers. ...

Constraints on the variation of the fine structure constant from recent CMB measurements Graca Rocha Cavendish Astrophysics, University of Cambridge October 22, 2003 Recent CMB experiments such as Boomerang, MAXIMA, DASI, CBI, VSA among others and most recently WMAP seem to validate, apar t some intriguing discrepancies, the so-called concordance model of cosmology. ... DASI and WMAP detected the polarization of the CMB via the temperature polarization (scalar E-mode) cross power-spectrum (TE). ...

... High-pressures experiments are mostly aimed at studying phase transformations in solids, synthesising new phases and studying their composition, crystal and magnetic structure, physical and thermodynamical properties. ... The specific feature of investigations at LHPP that distinguishes it from most other high-pressure laboratories is combining in situ measurements with studies at ambient pressure of new high-pressure phases fixed by quenching to liquid nitrogen temperature. ...

Dwarf novae are a subclass of cataclysmic variable stars in which a late-type secondary fills its Roche lobe and transfers mass to a white dwarf primary via an accretion disc. ... Those spiral structures are very similar to the spiral shocks discovered by Sawada, Matsuda & Hachisu (1986) in 2D finite difference numerical simulations in accretion discs. In this poster, we want to compare 2D numerical simulations of accretion disc with the observations of SH2 . ...

... Because of the Earth 's gravity, atmosphere is horizontally stratified (see, e.g., Kelley, 1989). Its structure can be organized by using the neutral gas temperature, as shown in the figure from mid-latitudes (note the logarithmic altitude scale). When going upward from the ground within the lowermost atmospheric region, troposphere, the temperature decreases up to about 10 km altitude (tropopause). ... Here the radiation also ionizes the neutral atmosphere, creating the ionosphere . ... 1989. ...
