In 2001, Westerbork observations of the disturbed galaxy named VV-29 (alias Arp-188, UGC-10214) showed that there is second smaller galaxy (named VV-29c) that appears behind the western side of the main body of the distorted galaxy. ... The galaxy was featured as the May 2, 2002 Astronomy Picture of the Day . ... When VV-29 had its 15 minutes of fame in May 2002, it appeared under the name "The Tadpole Galaxy," but based on the images above, we will always think of it as "The CHAINSAW"! ...

Summary of the pro ject by A. Shlapunov "The Cauchy Problem for Elliptic Complexes" It is well known, that the Cauchy problem for elliptic equations is ill-posed in all the standard functional spaces. ... For overdetermined elliptic systems this approach was based on Integral Representation Method. ... Differential complexes appear as compatibility conditions for overdetermined systems of differential equations (such as, for example, Maxwell system or multidimensional Cauchy-Riemann system). ...

Next: Upper Limits for Up: The Second EGRET Catalog Previous: Primary Catalog . As a result of the re-analysis of the Phase 1 data with the improved model of the diffuse gamma radiation, a number of the sources which appeared in the first EGRET catalog ([ Fichtel et al. 1994b ]) do not appear in this one (and conversely, some in the present catalog would have appeared in the first catalog using the improved model). ... These include 5 of the AGN listed in the first catalog. ...
