... rmfgen generates the o/p rmf in the format specified by OGIP. This format allows response data for a given energy range to be stored in the form of contiguous groups of elements whose values are above a particular threshold. ... The fitting package expands this format, replacing those elements in between groups with zero. ... The threshold value can be set by the user through the threshold parameter and allowed range is between 0 and 1 (the maximum possible response value). ...

SUMMARY OF THE RESEARCH PROPOSAL by Maxim Vsemirnov Research topic: Hurwitz and (2,3)-generated matrix groups and related problems. ... The reason to study these groups arises from the fact that the class of (2, 3)-generated groups together with three cyclic groups {1}, C2 and C3 is exactly the class of quotients of the classical modular group PSL2 (Z). ... The answer is known for sporadic groups, some exceptional groups of Lie type and for the most series of classical matrix groups of large rank. ...

The night after the John Glenn program, I pitched the terraforming idea to my students. I asked them if they'd like to terraform Mars as a big class project; I wanted to throw the idea to them and see how they would react. Already I had a vision of splitting the class into several groups and having each group take charge of a portion of the project. ... Following my initial idea on how to conduct the project, I split the class into six groups, each student choosing his or her group. ...
