... The sky distribution of the BCGs from the HSS sample is shown in Fig. 6 together with BCGs from the SBS and Case surveys (Izotov et al. [ 1993b ]; Pustilnik et al. ... First, we compare the apparent magnitude distributions of the three samples. ... The similar behaviour of the faint end of the apparent magnitude distributions infers that the Northern BCG sample may have a similar completeness down to this limiting magnitude. ...

Instrument Summary -- Why Use the GHRS? Here we provide a brief overview of the basic properties of the GHRS. ... The GHRS can obtain spectra from about 1150 to 3200 . ... The repeatability of fluxes is even better, being better than 1%; i.e., it is possible to compare measures of the same wavelength in the same star at different times to within 1% for observations with the LSA. ... The source to be observed may be placed in a Large Science Aperture (LSA) or a Small Science Aperture (SSA). ...

... While there is practically no detector noise present at energies above , X-ray data below are considerably contaminated by noise events, which become more and more dominant towards the lowest transmitted energies (Fig. ... Investigations of 40 hours of in-orbit calibration data with the filter wheel closed, taken over a period of more than two years, showed that the noise properties vary with position and energy, but are fairly stable in time for most areas on the detector. ...

Next: ZGSC (Compressed GSC) and XSKYMAP . ... This is a preliminary report on an investigation of the quality and properties of plates digitized during creation of the Guide Star Catalog (GSC). The results will be vital for reclassifying GSC objects. ... Many objects are measured on more than one plate, and thus have multiple catalog entries. ... Among the shortcomings of the GSC are: biased magnitudes and incorrect classifications for certain objects, presence of artifact objects. ...

. Mars is "behind" the sun from the earth's point of view and is therefore not visible in the nighttime sky (i.e. its up in the daytime). Venus it at greatest elongation and appears in the western sky as a bright object for 2-3 hours after sunset .

... ICND-96, Saratov, Russia. ... And though a number of efficient methods of digital sound compression is developed by far, there is still a need in new efficient methods. In this report we study a possibility of application of fractal methods to compression of speech signals. ... In this method, a speech frame is divided into larger pieces called domains, and smaller ones called regions, and an optimal set of affine transformations of domains into regions is calculated. ...
