. Authors: A.A. Suchkov , V.A. Marakov . Journal: Pis'ma Astron. Zh., 1976, v.2, p.38-385. Metallisity function of globular clusters in the Galaxy is constructed. It is found to have three "humps". This leads to a conclusion that there were three metal enrichment outbursts during the period of globular cluster formation. The constraints on the nature of metal sourses and on the early evolution of Galaxy are considered.

... M90 has an active nucleus. It is noteworthy in that M90 has a blueshift with respect to the Milky Way, even though it is located at a distance of 40 Million light years from us. This is because M90 is a member of the Virgo Cluster and its random velocity due to the gravitational potential well of Virgo is larger than its relative expansion velocity with respect to the Milky Way. That random component is accidentally pointed in our direction such that M90 has a velocity of about -250 km/s. ...

. To display the state of any background jobs that you are currently running use the job command. For example: jobs [1] + Running xterm -g 90x55 [2] - Running xterm -g 90x55 . This displays the job number, its state and the command associated with this job. To display the process number use the -l option. For example: jobs -l [1] + 3584 Running xterm -g 90x55 [2] - 3587 Running xterm -g 90x55 .

We review the evidence, from rotational modulation, for association of plages and spots on active binaries. ... There is a similar lack of evidence for BY Dra systems. The results can be interpreted as evidence for: (a) the presence of active longitudes which persist on some RS CVn stars for several years, (b) high filling factors in MgII emission and (c) lower filling factors, and therefore greater contrast, in SWP emission. ...
