The evolution of the photospheric magnetic field associated with the footpoints of the upflow region and the plasma properties of active region upflows are investigated aiming at providing such information for benchmarking data-driven modelling of this solar feature that is presented in Galsgaard et al. ...

SN 1989B Light Curve Analysis. ... In the light curve depicting their observations, definite trends are noted, here is a "thumb-nail" analysis of the the magnitude estimations of the bright SN (1989B) in the galaxy NGC 3627 (M66). ... The observations were inserted against the V magnitude templete of BL, CCD photometric data, (Wells et. al, (1994) and a color trend (B-V) histogram of the mean type Ia SN (BL)(nutemp.gif). Key Words: Amateur Observations, Supernova, Magnitude Estimates, 1989B . ...

... 1977AuJPh.. ... 209-230 Results of a deep survey made at 408 MHz with the Molonglo cross are given. The catalogue lists positions and flux densities for a total of 373 radio sources, most of which have not previously been catalogued, in a solid angle of 0.0201 sr. ... The lower limit of flux density is 88 mJy, which is five times the r.m.s. error. ... The present paper gives the second instalment of the deep sky survey, and contains the results from declination zone -62 deg. ...

... The Miriad task uvgen can be used to simulate a variety of observing modes. ... Simulating a telescope approximately, let alone in some detail, requires a good many parameters. uvgen takes an appreciable number of parameters and input files to describe the telescope, correlator and source. Fortunately keyword and set-up files for some common situations exist ( e.g. simulating the ATCA and VLA). ... For example, to load typical parameters for the ATCA, use miriad% source $MIRCAT/uvgen.def.atca . ...

... Meade Instruments Corporation . ... Section 3: File Menu . ... Displays the dialog to open an existing image: . ... Saves the current image as a new file name or new file type, or both. ... This can be useful to prevent having 20 or more images open at once, and saves having to close them manually. ... This is done by creating a text file with the same name as the image file. ... Note that Image Information is saved within the FITS file, so there will not be a text file to accompany these files. ...

... The large body of near infrared observations presented in Testi et al. (1997; 1998) are analysed with the aim of characterizing the young stellar clusters surrounding Herbig Ae/Be stars. The results confirm the tendency of early Be stars to be surrounded by dense clusters of lower mass "companions", while Ae stars are never found to be associated with conspicuous groups. ... Only the most massive stars (10-20Msun) are found to be associated with dense (10^3 pc^-3) stellar clusters. ...
