... Columns can be re-named, added, or deleted; various operations can be performed on column contents, and the results stored in a new column; and so on. ... When you create a table from an ASCII file, the width of the table column is (by default) the width of the field in the original *.dat file. ... You can avoid this problem by specifying a width wider than the original ASCII field by using (say) C*32 instead of just C for the column in the format file, when you create the table. ...

It is a matter of common knowledge that in processes of genesis and evolution of many solar phenomena participate magnetic fields of sunspots. ... As a basis for formation of the database we take data on magnetic fields, collected by set of observatories during many years of observations. ... Section "Magnetic field data" contains data of magnetic field observation for separate sunspots, presented in standard text format (ASCII). ... Description of structure of these files is presented here . ...

The algorithm allows to work easily with the first and the second derivatives of a visibility function phases and amplitudes. This approach is important for high orbiting Space VLBI data processing. ... where is a measurements of the visibility function and is an approximating function. ... If is a 2-D complex function (a model), the bi-orthogonal approximation is known in VLBI as a self-calibration algorithm. ...

... The spectrum of the Sgr B2 molecular cloud has been surveyed between 215 and 265 GHz towards 3 positions, the dense cores Sgr B2(N)and Sgr B2(M), and the quiescent core Sgr B2(NW). ... The Sgr B2 molecular cloud, located approximately 100 pc from the Galactic Centre and with a mass of , is one of the most extreme cases among star formation sites ( Lis & Goldsmith (1991) ). ... Of the 3 observed positions Sgr B2(N) has the strongest line emission in most molecular species with a few exceptions. ...

For non-spherical isotropic particles, the classic variant of the RDG approximation does not include the anisotropy of the shape and hence does not give the correct Rayleigh limit, say, for small ellipsoids. ... We call this variant a modified RDG approximation (MRDG). ... First, the MRDG leads to the correct Rayleigh limit. ... The second approach to generalization of the RDG is connected with the use of the Born iterations for the scattering integral equation [ 95 , 124 , 132 , 264 ]. ...
