The C component of Comet Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 . imaged by Apostolos Christou of Armagh Observatory on 4th April, 2006. ... About one month after its discovery the comet reached its closest point to the Earth (5.73 million miles). ... Current calculations indicate that the main component of the comet, designated SW3C, may reach maximum brightness around May 15th when its distance from the Sun and Earth will be about 93 million miles and 7.5 million miles, respectively. ...

... What work is currently being done to improve the flux calibration accuracy for echelle modes? ... Starting early in Cycle 11, monthly offsetting for echelle modes was turned off to minimize these types of calibration problems. ... We are currently working on redetermining the echelle flux calibration so that it is self-consistent with the 2-D scattered light algorithm. Time dependence of the sensitivity - Sensitivity-monitor data for the echelle modes are currently under investigation. ...

... Users . ... AAS 225 . ... This particular part of the analysis has been disabled since the code is struggling to cope with the number of users seen this year, in particular the large contingent of people who have re-tweeted NASA. ... The links between the accounts identify those users who have mentioned another user in a tweet, using the @name syntax; the line widths increase based on the number of mentions but given that the graph is ever-so-slightly crowded this isn't that useful at this time. ...

. The following is a list of the currently installed versions of the CIMA. The links refer to the CIMA version log page . Normal: version 3.0 - this is the next version of CIMA which has become the new default version --- NOTE that this version uses a new syntax for command file observations, uses new configuration files and needs source files with full velocity information . Old: version 2.2 - this is the old version of CIMA You can return to the main CIMA page by clicking here .

... This limited extent suggests that the currents which disturb the field flow somewhere nearby, probably near the auroral arcs. ... Any electric current, however, must flow in a closed circuit, and since it seemed to be caused (like that of the aurora) by processes taking place in distant space, Birkeland proposed that it came down from space at one end of the arc and returned to space at the other end. ... The electric energy needed to drive the current is taken from the motion, which is slowed down....

... To save time, I will only provide ephemerides in 2000 coordinates. ... Note: most the orbital elements used to create these ephemerides were obtained from the International Astronomical Union Circulars (IAUCs), Minor Planet Circulars (MPCs) or the ICQ Comet Handbook. ... The following 1-day ephemeris (March 1, 1997 - October 1, 1997) is from Donald Yeomans of JPL and is based on Reference Orbit #55 (March 4, 1997). 2000 coordinates (March - September, 1997) [3/4/97] . ...

... The star formation rate (SFR) of the current SF episode can be estimated from the total H luminosity. ... For the derived total flux F (H )=5.8 erg s -1 cm -2 we obtain a total H luminosity of 10 39 erg s -1 . ... The total mass of ionized gas can be obtained from the average mass density inside the H II region and its volume. An average mass density corresponding to the average electron density of 1 cm -3 within a volume with a diameter of 0.5 kpc yields a total ionized gas mass of 10 6 . ...

... Files in red?history) . ... Auroral Currents . 25H. Birkeland Currents . ... As noted earlier Kristian Birkeland, reporting in 1903 on his expeditions to the auroral zone, proposed that magnetic disturbances accompanying the aurora were caused by large electric currents flowing down the length of auroral formations. ... In later years these currents became known as the auroral electrojets , and considerable debate ranged over their cause and the way their circuit might be completed. ...

Next: Modes of Operation Up: CCD Scientific Performance Previous: Field of View . Thermal excitation of charge carriers from the valence to the conduction band creates a dark current signal which may vary with position in the array, and also has temporal shot noise variation. ... In a device devoid of localized defects which give rise to individual dark current spikes , most dark current arises from electrons generated at interface states at the surface. ...

... NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has detected a long-sought population of comets dwelling at the icy fringe of the solar system .
