. Next: FSRQs Up: THE DEEP X-RAY RADIO Previous: Redshift Distribution . DXRBS' unique combination of a dual X-ray/radio survey method and high sensitivity has opened up important, large new regions of parameter space for both blazar sub-classes, within which a large fraction of our sample (nearly 50%) lie. This section is devoted to discussing these discoveries and their impact upon our understanding of the blazar class. љ . FSRQs . BL Lacs . Paolo Padovani . 1/5/1998

... There are compelling reasons for the pulsar community to utilise a standard data storage format. For example, standardisation of file formats significantly decreases the amount of effort required to integrate new instruments into the analysis chain. ... Accordingly, we have defined PSRFITS as a standard FITS-based format for pulsar data files. ... For example, the first line of Processing History HDU contains information about the data acquisition program and the initial structure of the file. ...

... In electron-positron colliders, effect of the lattice modification by opposing bunch focusing on the equilibrium radiation emittance is important at high values of the space charge parameter, so one should correctly evaluate this dynamic radiation emittance of the weak beam, which may differ a lot from the nominal emittance, already in the linear beam-beam force model. ... The linearized beam-beam force is equivalent to focusing insertion in linear lattice of the collider. ...
