Magnification (Power) And Using Eyepieces . ... To determine power in a telescope, divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece. By exchanging an eyepiece of one focal length for another, you can increase or decrease the power of the telescope. For example, a 25mm eyepiece used on a telescope with a 1000mm focal length would yield a power of 40x (1000 / 25 = 40) and a 10mm eyepiece used on the same telescope would yield a power of 100x (1000 / 10 = 100). ...

Authors: Yu.G. Shevelev , V.A. Marsakov , . ... We have constructed and investigated properties of metallicity function of disk stars with different ages, proceeding from the statistically restored real altitude distributions of stars at the solar galactocentric distance. It is shown that the metallicity distribution of stars in each age range is not of Gaussian form, but it may be considered as a superposition of two normal distributions centered at -0.2 and 0.0 dex. ...

... Email: chaos@mail.cplire.ru . ... In this report, we investigate phenomena on the edge of spatially uniform chaotic mode and spatial temporal chaos in a lattice of chaotic 1-D maps with only local connections. It is shown that in autonomous lattice with local connections, spatially uniform chaotic mode cannot exist if the Lyapunov exponent of the isolated chaotic map is greater than some critical value cr > 0. ...
