One of the big questions in the area of curves over finite fields concerns the distribution of the numbers of points: Which numbers are possible as the number of points on a curve of genus $g$? The same question applies to various subclasses of curves. ... Страница Лаборатории Понселе . ...

... Our Milky Way galaxy is host to a number of companions. These companions are gravitationally bound to the Milky Way and are stellar systems in their own right. They include a population of about 150 globular clusters (GCs) and some 30 dwarf satellite galaxies (DSGs). ... These DSGs are more extended and diffuse compared to GCs. In fact the larger satellites of the Milky Way (and other galaxies, for that matter) host their own small systems of GCs. ...

RELATIVE SUNSPOT NUMBERS Description of Data from SGD Explanation of Data Reports: Relative Sunspot Numbers -- The relative sunspot number is an index of the activity of the entire visible disk of the Sun. ... The provisional daily Zurich relative sunspot numbers, Rz, were based upon observations made at Zurich and its two branch stations in Arosa and Locarno and communicated by M. Waldmeier of the Swiss Federal Observatory. ... This indicates the uncertainty above and below the predicted number. ...

... They were determined as a result of orbit improving on the base of all kinds of optical observations available in the catalog of observations of the Minor Planet Center on March 16, 2014 (radar observations have not been used at this stage). ... As the MPC orbits do not all were improved simultaneously with EMP orbits, only 383866 sets of elements were used for data comparison (for selected sets of elements process of improvement had started with the use of the same observations). ...

The first persistent Web agent that we have created on Actor Prolog is a program that collects information about research groups that develop Prolog and projects in the field of logic programming. The agent looks through a given list of Web sites and calculates some attributes of the sites: the date of recent modification, total size, the number of figures, the number of outside links, the number of error links, the number of given keywords, etc. ... http://www.cplire.ru/Lab144/space/prolog.html . ...

When using a large number of Virtual Hosts, Apache may run out of available file descriptors (sometimes called file handles if each Virtual Host specifies different log files. ... Unix operating systems limit the number of file descriptors that may be used by a process; the limit is typically 64, and may usually be increased up to a large hard-limit. ... If you system falls into 1 or 2 (above), then increase the file descriptor limit before starting Apache, using a script like #!/bin/sh . ...

ATMoB "Open Cluster Observing Award " Guidelines Purpose: To promote observing among the membership of the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston through participation in the Open Clusters Observing Awards program. Introduction: This awards program is oriented towards visually observing open clusters above magnitude 9.9. ... It turns out that a very unprejudiced and convenient method to dermine the limiting magnitude is to count the number of visible stars in certain areas on the sky. ...

. To remove consecutive duplicate lines from a file: uniq acc_nos accounts . This removes all consecutive duplicate lines from the file acc_nos and places the output in the file accounts . To list the consecutive duplicate lines and the number of times that each occurs: uniq -c tel_nos errors . This lists each of the consecutive duplicate lines in the file tel_nos and the number of times that each is repeated. The results are placed in the file errors .
