We investigate models for main-sequence and horizontal-branch (HB) stars constructed using the Carson opacities and make comparisons with models based on the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... The drop in the hydrogen-shell luminosity due to the helium-core expansion during HB evolution is greater than that obtained with the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... Studies of main-sequence (MS) stars lead to agreement with Stothers' (1974a,b, 1976) results for homogeneous models constructed with Carson opacities. ...

Close binary systems of the RS CVn and Algol type are characterized by a highly variable radio emission, from typical flux densities of a few mJy during low-activity (quiescent) periods, up to 1 Jy during strong flares. The origin of this radio emission is attributed to the gyrosynchrotron mechanism. Several observations of these stars have shown an evolution of the radio spectrum during both the rising and decay phases of flares. ...

... The analysis shows, that asteroid ­ rubble pile loses its fast fragments in no time but the retaining fragments forms a compact structure immersed in dust ­ gas atmosphere, created by interaction of interplanetary medium with dispersed product of collisional evolution of asteroid. By interaction of an asteroid ­ rubble pile with interplanetary medium structures asteroid can increase its brightness on account of blowed up dust simulating phenomenon of distant comet's brightening. ...
