... These Frontier Fields will combine the power of HST with the natural gravitational telescopes of high-magnification clusters of galaxies. ... We are soliciting gravitational lensing maps for the last four Hubble Frontier Fields clusters (MACSJ0717.5+3745, MACSJ1149.5+2223, AbellS1063, and Abell 370) based upon the exceptionally deep HST FF imaging and other new ancillary data. ... For the full set of proposal instructions and requirements, see the FY16 Frontier Fields Lensing Map Call for Proposals....

... Credit: O. Gabzo ( Wise Observatory ) Explanation: More Leonids were visible at some places than others. In Israel, early in the morning of 17 November, it rained meteors though a clear sky. Observers there reported a peak rate for the 1998 Leonid Meteor Shower of about 600 meteors per hour . Visible in the above picture are no fewer than seven Leonid meteors occurring over just a few minutes. ... Another eventful Leonid Meteor Shower is forecast for the same time next year. ...

... More on 51 Peg: . The discovery of a Jupiter--mass planet in orbit around the solar--type star 51Peg has been reported by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz (Geneva Observatory) on October 6th at the 9th Cambridge workshop on "cool stars, stellar systems, and the sun" held at Florence (Italy). ... Recall that the measurements of radial velocity only yield v sin i which in turn gives us M sin i. For most values of i, sin i will be greater than 0.5 and this gives a mass estimate of 0.5 Jupiter masses. ...

... 81Trushkin+ The results of the multi-frequency radio observations of fourteen supernova remnants (SNRs) made with the RATAN-600 radio telescope in 1985 are reported. Flux densities of these SNRs are measured at least at two wavelengths: 31.3 and 7.6 cm. The radio spectra of some SNRs are precised. ... The radio sources detected inside or near the SNRs with the flux densities measured in the most sensitive 7.6-cm radiometer. The spectra of some point sources are discussed. ...
