The investigation of features of electromagnetic waves propagation, their generation and absorption in weakly inhomogeneous chiral media were started and the following results were obtained : . the governing equations to describe the electromagnetic waves interaction with inhomogeneous chiral plasmas were derived (together with N.S.Erokhin); . ... it was proven the 100 % hybrid mode conversion in the case of normal waves incidence upon inhomogeneous plasma (together with N.S.Erokhin); . ...

... COMPUTER SIMULATION OF RADIOWAVE MULTIPLE SCATTERING EFFECTS IN IONOSPHERE USING MONTE-CARLO METHOD . ... Distribution of reflected radiation on the ground is computed. ... Such influence can be remarkable if the scattering is multiple, i.e. the optical thickness for the scattering process is considerably greater than a unit. ... Radiation energy transfer in the slab is modeled by distribution of some particles carring small portions of radiation energy. ... The isotropic plasma approximation is...

Litvinov - 26 years old; Astronomical Observatory, Kharkov University, UA S.A. Beletsky - 28 years old; Astronomical Observatory, Kharkov University, UA The head of the team, Dr. Tishkovets, and Mr. Litvinov made many investigations of light scattering by clusters of particles - analogues of interplanetary dust grains. ...

... This gives us another handle on how distant the stars are. ... Stars differ not only in distance, but also in apparent brightness. ... Ranking stars by brightness . ... The brightness of the star decreases as the square of the distance. ... At what distance would a 100-watt light bulb have the same brightness as the brighter stars? ... So if the distance of the 100-watt light bulb was 5 kilometers, the distance of the brighter stars would be 10,000,000,000,000 kilometers, or about a light-year. ...
