... 739C As one part of a program to detect complete samples of active extragalactic objects, the 3.36x10^-3 sr field centered on alpha=12h04min, delta=+11deg30' (1950.0) was mapped with the Very Large Array at 1411MHz. Sixty-seven maps cover this field so that no point is more than 15arcmin from the nearest map center. ... The rms map noise is 0.030 + 0.001 mJy, and the resulting source list is complete to a map peak flux density S_p = 0.2 mJy within 25 arcmin of the field center. ...

Tiled backgrounds for Netscape and Internet Explorer are on everybody's minds. ... Before you even get started on this project, you should make a duplicate of the original file. You'll want to have the original *and* the copy open at the same time. First we're going to offset the duplicate image using the "offset" filter. ... Make sure to select the 'wrap around' option. ... The image now has an ugly seam criss-crossing in the middle, but the edges will match perfectly. ...

... There are several explanations for these X--ray quiet PMS stars. To examine the explanations, it is proper to divide the PMS stars into three groups: those bluer than R - I = 0.7, those redder than the X--ray sources (R - I > 1.25) and those with colors similar to the X--ray sources. ... A total of 26 of the non--X--ray detected PMS candidates had spectra taken. ... Between V=14 and V=16, I find 25 stars which are X--ray sources and estimate 19 non--X--ray PMS stars. ...

... An examination of Figure 5 shows that the FSRQs in the DXRBS sample cover a much wider range of parameter space than those in the two previously existing complete samples of FSRQs , the 1 Jy and S4 samples ( radio data for these samples were taken from Stickel et al. 1994 and Stickel K?hr 1994, while X-ray data for these ... Also, the mean of the DXRBS sample's X-ray luminosity differs from that of both the 1 Jy and S4 samples' only at the 93 and level respectively. ...

There are two encoders mounted 180 degrees apart on the azimuth arm. ... On 15oct03 barbara catinella noticed that the azimuth error of the calibrator source she had done the previous two nights had jumped by -16 arcseconds. ... Fig 2 plots the rate of change of encoder difference (per second). ... The green dotted lines would be jumps of one and two teeth of the encoder (64 encoder counts per tooth). The red dotted line is the second where the the encoder difference jumped by two encoder teeth. ...

... On the morning of Thursday, 26 February, amid the Gal pagos Islands, the Sun will fade from view. Not the culmination of ancient prophecy, but none less mystical, Earth's small Moon will be executing a slow slide past the enormous Sun. ... And anyone living in southern North America, Central America, northern South America, or on islands and cruise ships in the Caribbean Sea will, weather permitting, have the opportunity to experience the wonder of a solar eclipse. ...

... Early on Saturday, May 31 (UT) the new Moon will once again slide across the Sun's fiery disk, and once again an annular solar eclipse will be the result -- since the Moon's apparent diameter will be a little too small to completely cover the Sun. ... The Earth and Moon from Mars . ... Half-shadowed by the Earth, the Moon takes on a remarkable appearance against a field of stars in this intriguing telephoto picture recorded during a partial phase of last week's lunar eclipse. ...

... Meta Index / Home Page / User-visible functionality The OAL provides functionality to expand a pair of two or a tuple of four identifiers into a valid ODF data set name which can then be used to physically open the set, e.g. with the dal open method. The corresponding OAL routine receives a string which is either a valid data set name or of the form . odf(<instr>, <mode>[, <expnr>, <ccdnr>[, scheduledFlag]]) . ... For data sets for which the field is not applicable a value of 0 must be given. ...

Hipparchus (and possibly Aristarchus before him) also derived the Moon's distance from the duration of a lunar eclipse . Because the Earth casts a much larger shadow than the Moon, such an eclipse usually darkens the entire Moon, for several hours. ... If the Sun is assumed to be very distant, and if the Moon crosses the middle of the shadow (if not, corrections must be made), the width of the shadow is expected to be about 2r , twice the Earth's radius r . ...

... NICS will be the only infrared instrument for the first light of the TNG; as a consequence, we decided to incorporate a sufficient degree of operation flexibility by providing the instrument with six different observing modes, three aimed at imaging and three at spectroscopy: . ... It will be possible to use the narrow band filters as order sorters; this will allow to perform high resolution long-slit spectroscopy in the wavelength ranges covered by the available narrow band filters. ...
