... December 21, 1997 . ... Advantages are briefly discussed of gaining in spectral resolution, which is accompanied by losses in signal level, as compared with the attempts to improve the accuracy of measurement of line parameters by means of rising the S/N ratio alone with increasing the exposure time. To partially solve the problem of observations of faint objects at the BTA a new design echelle spectrometer is proposed. high resolution spectroscopy . ...

... Delivery Procedures . ... File Structure . Reference Files . ... The procedure compares two FITS reference files tables. ... The compared elements are limited to those specified in the COLUMNS parameter (which is necessary for this program to run). ... The parameter COLUMNS is an n-element array of strings with the names of the columns to compare within the table. ... When a combination is missing (in the new_file ;or in the old_file) the procedure will flag it in the standard output. ...

... In order to compare the number of different evolutionary stages obtained and X-ray luminosity of the chosen X-ray sources with the observed galactic values we use the sum of C/O+O/C , where C and O are the calculated and observed values of a given binary type, respectively. If we make comparison for a number of different binary species (for example, we compare the number of CV, number of X-ray pulsars,   total X-ray luminosity of LMXB, etc.), we write this criterion in the form: . ...

. You can use the diff command to compare the contents of two directories: diff directory1 directory2 . The information given by the command tells you what to do to make the directories match. If there is no difference between the directories you are returned to the shell prompt . diff reports if a file or directory is only to be found in directory1 or directory2 . It also reports any line by line differences for files that are common to each directory. Example .

... The sample of the Local Volume galaxies (distance smaller than 10 Mpc) gives a unique opportunity to study the properties of galaxies including the weakest objects: the absolute magnitude M B -10 and the virial mass M vir 10 9 M x263C;. ... Luminosity function of the Local Volume galaxies. ... The luminosity functions for galaxies are presented: red dashed line - from the 2dFGRS survey (Norberg et al. 2002); blue dash-dotted line - from the SDSS survey (Blanton et al. ...

... These measurements have invariably been interpreted as evidence for significant wide-spread small-scale structure in the HI distribution with volume densities orders of magnitude higher ($n_{HI}\sim 10^4-10^5$ cm$^{-3}$) than those implied by the parsec-scale component. Naturally, there are serious difficulties about such structures being in equilibrium with the other components of the medium, and hence about how to generate and maintain such apparently commonly encountered structures. ...
