A primitive guider for Agile that works from science images. The guider is primitive because the guide loop is in TUI instead of in the hub where it belongs. ... Specify a guide star (set Star Pos and Centroid Rad ) one of two ways: . ... Then for every Agile image the guider will try to centroid a star at Star Pos and offset the telescope (using boresight offsets) to center the star at that position. ... The guider never modifies any entry field (Star Pos and Centroid Rad) unless Find is checked. ...

... Take the air we breathe: its molecules have energies around 0.03 ev (electron volt--see energetic particles ) as fast as a cannonball, though still quite a bit slower than the typical satellite. ... The Sun's plasma is much hotter , and that of the magnetosphere is still hotter. ... They are known as cosmic rays or cosmic radiation . ... Actually, the source of cosmic rays is probably not quite as intense, because cosmic ray particles can stay around the galaxy much longer than starlight. ...

... Свет: остановка по требованию? ... Более мощное "управляющее поле" (свет с правой циркулярной поляризацией) делает возможным распространение в среде на порядок более слабого "сигнального поля" (упоминавшийся выше импульс, свет с левой циркулярной поляризацией), скорость распространения "сигнального импульса" при этом существенно уменьшается. ... Когда часть импульса (I) уже покинула кювету, управляющее поле выключают и из кюветы ничего не выходит до тех пор, пока управляющее поле не включат вновь. ...
