The space probes Pioneer 3 and 4 detected a wide belt of trapped particles beyond the inner belt. ... We now know that outer-belt ions and electrons probably come from the long "magnetic tail" of stretched field lines on the night side of the magnetosphere. Two radiation belts . ... When the outburst ends and the electric field dies away, the particles find themselves locked in trapped orbits of the ring current and the outer radiation belt. ...

... Team . ... GRB mini-workshop 2006 . ... On April 8, 2005, an optical afterglow of the GRB 050408 was discovered with the SAO's telescopes (the 1-meter telescope Zeiss and 6-meter telescope BTA) within the framework of a joint BTA request (SAO RAS + IAA CSIC, Granada, Spain) on optical identification of gamma-ray bursts. We first detected a variable object only by our own data in the localization error-box reported by the space observatory HETE and then it was confirmed by our observations in SAO. ...

... These experiments followed the movement of the subreflector as the antenna tipped from the zenith to the horizon. We find, relative to a coordinate frame attached to the receiver platform : ffl The axial movement (axial defocussing) is 0.7mm ffl The lateral movement, (in the focal plane, normal to the elevation axis) is 2mm, and no move­ ment parallel to the elevation axis. ffl A rotation of 3 arcminutes about the elevation axis. ... This gave the rotation of the subreflector, shown in figure 3. ...

... The Drake Equation: Adding a METI Factor . ... METI (Messaging to Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) is an activity, which I believe to be an inherent attribute of advanced civilizations. In order to account for the true prevalence of communicative civilizations (that is, those that engage in METI), I suggest we introduce a METI factor f m into the classical Drake Equation . ... f p = The fraction of those stars with planetary systems . ... Then the METI factor f m should be quite small, about 0.01. ...
