... Special Reports Giant space cloud may be powered by black holes 17:57 23 April 2007 NewScientist.com news service David Shiga An enormous cloud of roiling plasma in space may be drawing its energy from black holes, new observations suggest. Such clouds might be sources for the mysterious particles that occasionally crash into Earth's atmosphere at ultra - high speed. ... But higher energy particles in the cloud may be able to escape, he says. ...

Next: A Universal Diagram for Up: ``Ecology'' of Magnetic Rotators Previous: The Corotation Radius . The interaction of a magnetic rotator with the surrounding plasma to a large extent depends on the relation between the four characteristic radii: the stopping radius, , the gravitational capture radius,   , the light cylinder radius,   , and the corotation radius,   . ... Hence, the classification of the interaction regimes may well mean the classification of magnetic rotators. ...

Although seen here on Earth, aurorae start at the center of the solar system. ... After about three days those particles get near the Earth and hit the Earth's magnetic field. ... Now these particles are moving very fast, and when they hit the air they slam into air atoms that make up our atmosphere, sometimes knocking loose more electrons. ... 2008 Phil Plait. ...

XMM-Newton Science Analysis System . ... Slews which are very curved can produce exhorbitantly large images which do not maintain the flat projection and hence contain points with increasingly inaccurate astrometry. ... NB: The slew images have very few photons (typically about 100 in half a square degree). For reasons which are not fully understood the more recent versions of the source detection chain produce a large number of spurious sources from these images. ...

... The Sun is the closest star to us, and a regular object in our Galaxy. Solar activity manifests itself, primarily, in solar flares - episodic explosive energy release in the form of electromagnetic radiation and high energy particles (electrons and protons). The nature of the flares is related to cyclic variations of global and local magnetic fields in the atmosphere of the Sun. ... Such formations are called active regions. ...

... Geomagnetic Indices . ... Minute Values of Geomagnetic Field Components . ... Hourly Values of Geomagnetic Field Components . ... The Earth's magnetic field is described by seven parameters.To measure the Earth's magnetism in any place, we must measure the direction and intensity of the field. ... K indices isolate solar particle effects on the earth's magnetic field; over a 3-hour period, they classify into disturbance levels the range of variation of the more unsettled horizontal field component. ...

... The MROI makes use of optical interferometry, much like COAST . ... As a major collaborator, the Cambridge Astrophysics Group is currently developing some of the mechanisms below, specifically the delay line and the fast tip-tilt system. ... Fringe tracking is used to control the positions of the delay line trolleys to make sure the light beams from the different telescopes in the MROI arrive at the science camera beam combiners in phase so that an interference pattern can be produced. ...
