... Calculations of at least two runs with different values of a parameter are required in order to discover to what extent the results depend on the , if at all. ... In order to study how the final statistical distributions depend on the initial functions, the method of Green functions is used. ... Then we can restore any distribution on this parameter (with a certain accuracy) by summing the results for each interval with the appropriate weight. ...

... Fitting the observed dependence includes calculations of the polarization cross-sections averaged over particles orientation and size distribution, their normalization and the comparison of obtained dependencies with Serkowski's curve representing observational data for a chosen star. ... Variations of the polarization factors with wavelength are shown in Fig. 16 for homogeneous spheroidal particles with PF orientation. ... The distinction between prolate and oblate spheroids is also clearly seen. ...

... We demonstrate through numerical simulations that model parameters estimated with our technique are essentially bias-free, even when the average number of counts per bin is 1. ... The IW technique avoids such biases by estimating through successive iterations, where for each iteration, j, , and the best-fit parameters are determined by minimization of . ... In our sample, we find that the minimum values and best-fit parameters converge after about 6 iterations. ...

... In brief: the frequency-dependent radiative transfer equation is solved for a dust under assumption of spherically-symmetric geometry for its distribution taking into account particle size distribution and quantum heating effects for the very small dust particles. ...

... Computing the true count rates for digital data. ... The following equation is used to find the count rate. x = ( raw counts / sample time ) . ... True count rates for digital data are corrected by using the first equation for a point source and the second for an extended source. a = ( y - pre_amp - darkrate ) / ( highvolt x pt_effic ) . ... True photocurrents (count rates for analog data) are corrected by the first equation for point sources and the second equation for extended sources. ...

... AMPLE (Adaptable Minor Planet Ephemerides) is integrated software package to deal with a number of problems concerning minor planets with the aid of IBM-type personal computer. ... compiling a list of all numbered minor planets which can be seen at certain moment within specified sky region and visualization of their mutual positions; . ... As AMPLE is able to reproduce virtually any table of "the Ephemerides of Minor Planets" , it may be considered as computer version of the EMP. ...

Observed maximum rotation velocity uncorrected for inclination effect. This quantity is calculated from 21-cm line widths at different levels and/or rotation curves (generally in H_alpha). ... These data are characterized by some secondary parameters: telescope, velocity resolution, level of the 21-cm line width and bibliographic reference. ... we start from a standard sample (a set of measurements giving a large and homogeneous sample). ... HyperLeda . ...
