... part 1 | ... The Basic Stages in Earth's Pre-geological Development . ... After fragments of the Vortex sleeves separated, whirlwinds of second and third orders ("NC" - new micro-vortex) were generated- future planet cores and their satellites - all of them developing independently, governed by the common laws of development of cosmogenic vortexes. ... Our planet's core today is comprised of considerably deteriorated cosmogenic vortex; consequently, the Earth has a moderated magnetic field. ...

The multiscale analysis of heterogeneous structures is actually an important and effective tool of mathematical modeling in physics, technique and biology. ... The special year will extend the existing cooperation between French and Russian researchers in the multiscale analysis and in mathematical modeling in hemodynamics, taking into consideration the mass transport, coagulation, fluid-structure interaction and other aspects. ...

... The GALFA Continuum Transit Survey group ( GALFACTS ; PI: A. R. Taylor) has conducted several test observations and will begin an all-sky full-Stokes continuum survey later this year with the new P-ALFA spectrometer. ... Sample Perseus images of GALFA H I 21cm-line and full-Stokes continuum emission are shown below along with maps of molecular (CO) gas, thermal dust, and ionized gas optical emission for comparison. ...

It was taken from Brookline, NH using my Celestron 5" SCT through a Tutill Solar Skreen filter using Fuji Superia Reala color print film. ... Marblehead Middle School Fifth Grade Students viewed the 2004 Transit of Venus from Riverhead Beach on Marblehead Harbor when the Sun broke through the clouds at about 6:45 a.m. Eyepiece projection with my 8" Meade SCT and Televue 32mm Plossl worked well. ...

... SAO researchers have discovered that supercritical accretion disks eject hot gas with a velocity of a few thousand kilometers per second. The supercritical regime of accretion onto black holes is very important for astrophysics. In the first half-billion years just after our Universe was born, supermassive black holes (quasars) began to appear and grow in centers of young galaxies. ... Gas falling onto a black hole (accretion) is not a frequent phenomenon in our Galaxy. ...

Clouds of gas between spiral arms . ... In the region of galactic longitudes 60 - 74 degree, latitudes +-15 degree and distances from centres of Galaxy 11 - 12 kpc 81 HI clouds are found and their parameters (figure 1) are measured. ... Average concentration of gas within clouds is 0.15 -3 cm. The life time of the clouds with such concentration between spiral arms permits to evaluate the velocity of ionization and to choose model of heating interstellar matter satisfying to these data. ...

A very important stage in a story of formation of any new science is the shift from discussion of situation which are possible but do not occur in practice due to some reason to recognition of real phenomena of interest. ... We suggest to consider computer viruses as this new specific form of life which is coming in the contact with our form of life. ... Computer life has been created by human being, the role of independent evolution of computer viruses seems to be still negligible. ...

THE ARGUMENT AGAINST LONG EXTRAGALACTIC DISTANCE SCALE Gaseous discs of S0 -- Sd galaxies appears to be gravitationally stable or close to stability. Dependence of the gravitational stability parameter of gaseous disc $M_g/M_c$ upon the color index $(B-V)^0_T$ which reflects a relative number of young stars, is found. Here $M_g$ is total mass of gas in a galaxy, $M_c$ - mass of gas which corresponds to marginal stability of gaseous disc at distances from center. ...
