... Description . ... The SCORPIO-2 project: . ... The multi-mode spectrograph SCORPIO-2 was developed using the experience of observations at the 6-m telescope BTA with the SCORPIO focal reducer . ... The focal reducer consists of several units ('floors') mounted in the common case in the following order (from the telescope focal plane): . ...

... We describe some results of a study for a possible HST instrument, namely an area spectrograph combined with a simplified version of the High Speed Photometer. The spectrograph samples a two-arcsecond diameter area with up to 37 spectra, each with an angular resolution of 0.14 arcseconds. ... Two instruments are mounted in the old HSP axial enclosure: a simplified High Speed Photometer and an area (``3-d'') spectrograph (shown schematically in Figure 1 ). ... The spectrograph covers 2000 ? ...

... Sources found in the local detection step (task eboxdetect ) at significance levels (column SIGMA of eboxdetect source list) exceeding a user-specifiable threshold (input parameter mlmin ) in the respective energy band are removed from the image using a suitable PSF and source brightness dependent cut-out radius (determined to be the radius at which each source contributes more than a user-specifiable number of counts/arcsec to the background; parameter scut ; default value: 0.01). ...

... It turns out one possibility is a form of matter/energy invented by Einstein in the 1920s to make sure his equations of General Relativity did not predict the Expansion of the Universe. Although Einstein was willing to predict several things with his equations of General Relativity, he obviously thought an expanding Universe was too much, and so he invented the Cosmological Constant, which repels itself, and was meant to balance the force of gravity, and make the Universe static. ...
