Discussions about the observing strategy for the HDF-S focussed primarily on the questions: . What filters/gratings to use for each instrument ? What exposure time to use for each filter/grating ? ... Different areas of the Version 1 output image correspond to variable amounts of exposure time, due to the relatively large pointing shifts necessitated by the multi-instrument observing strategy. ...

... In this activity, students will observe that the faintest stars which they can see in the sky are affected by many things: the adaptation of their eyes to the dark, the presence of clouds or haze, the time of year, and the presence of light pollution. General Information . ... After completing this activity, students should have a better understanding of the practical processes for dealing with the light pollution problem and with other environmental and societal issues. << previous page | ...

... The only criterion used for inclusion of a star in the monitoring program was that the star had to be an X--ray source. ... He also found a similar relation between rotation period and X--ray flux. ... Thus, one is more likely to find periods for either more massive or more active stars. ... Because of this, the data are not very sensitive to periods longer than 11 days. ... Taking these biases as a whole, some of the higher FAP periods listed as just below one day may be just above one day. ...

... As the SN activity in the first generation stellar population must be small at present, the net SN rate in the vicinity of the Sun is approximately proportional to the local density of stars of second generation (or to the star formation rate, which is the same), especially for SN II and SN Ib. If a -like star formation of the first generation stars took place, a hump on the observed - showing the relative fraction of the first generation stars should be observed. ...

From a study of three HeI lines, the rotational velocity of the star was determined as km/s. After five years of spectroscopic monitoring of IGR J06074+2205 (Reig et al. 2010), a reversion from emission to absorption of the H line and hence disappearance of the equatorial disk was reported. ...
