... Archives . ... The PCA and ICA is used for separating mixed components with some assumptions. ... The need of source separation methods in astronomy has led various adaptations of decomposition methods available. ...

We present results of new Monte Carlo calculations made with the DIRTY code of radiative transfer of stellar and scattered radiation for a dusty giant late-type galaxy like the Milky Way, which illustrate the effect of the attenuation of stellar light by internal dust on the integrated photometry of the individual bulge and disk components. ... In addition, we find that the structure of the dusty ISM affects more sensitively the observed magnitudes than the observed colors of both bulge and disk. ...

It is shown that in this very general framework the well established anti-correlation between variability amplitude and wavelength can only be understood as an effect of an underlying spectral component which remains stable on long time-scales, and is redder than the variable component. ...

Marc White . ... Turbulent entrainment processes may play an important role in the outflows from young stellar objects at all stages of their evolution. In particular, lateral entrainment of ambient material by high-velocity, well-collimated protostellar jets may be the cause of the multiple emission-line velocity components observed in the microjet-scale outflows driven by classical T Tauri stars. ...

... Polar Cap Potential . ... The solar wind propagation delay time calculation used here is conceptually similar to the T(IMF) calculation in Kelly, et al. ... The older continuous data are from key parameter data files. ... Note: Very high values of Solar Wind Speed, Solar Wind Pressure, IMF Magnitude and Bz, and Polar Cap Potential are likely indications that WIND has reentered the Earth's magnetosphere; such data is not indicative of solar wind conditions or impending severe geomagnetic disruption. ...

... A technique allowing automatic representation by a relatively small number of independent parameters based on the principal component analysis of data sequences is presented. ... In recent years the spectrum of observed astronomical data can be characterized as greatly varied. ... In this instance, the problem of initial description and classification of newly-observed data becomes most urgent, especially if there is a lack of preliminary observational material and theoretical expectations. ...

The Yarkovsky Effect in the Motion of NEAs . ... In this paper we evaluate the Yarkovsky effect on the motion of NEAs under the assumption that this acceleration depends on heliocentric distance as 1/r 2 and is characterized by the transverse component 2 in the orbital coordinate system. ... In some instances the Yarkovsky effect can be estimated by using only optical observations. Accounting for the Yarkovsky effect permits to include more optical observations in the orbit fitting process. ...
