It's a common misconception that black holes always have matter swirling into them. ... As this matter gets closer and closer to the black hole it piles up and a large, fairly flat disk forms. This is called the accretion disk , because matter from this disk accretes (that is, falls in) on the black hole. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

Seven months ago, on Mar 19, 2008, at 09:12 Moscow time, a new star appeared on the sky. The Sun had already risen over the Russia, but people of the Western hemisphere might be able to see by their eyes a faint starlet near one of Bootes constellation stars. This starlet appeared and faded by an order of magnitude in a minute. Astronomers named it GRB080319B or, informally, the Naked-Eye Burst, as it was twice as bright as human eye can see a star. ...

... Previous: ESO C Library for an Image Processing Software Environment (eclipse) . ... A new CLEAN-type algorithm searches for model components not in the dirty image but in the multi-resolution wavelet transform of the dirty image based on the dirty beam. ... The improvement of this prototype Wavelet CLEAN, which does convolve with the dirty beam, can be attributed to a suppression of noise and aliasing in the dirty image by use of information in the sidelobes of the whole image domain. ...
