... The crucial problem that limits our knowledge of our own galaxy, and prevents us from working out how and when it formed, is our inability to measure direct distances to distant stars, and to determine their proper motions. If we could get accurate parallaxes and proper motions for every star in the galaxy, we'd have things completely wrapped up, and surely we'd be able to figure out galaxy formation. ... Luckily, this is just what should be achievable using space interferometers. ...

... Acceleration of particles in the vicinity of a massive black hole We propose a two-step mechanism for charged particle acceleration in the magnetosphere of a massive black hole surrounded by an accretion disk. Particles first gain energy by stochastic process during the accretion phase. It is shown that effective proton acceleration up to energies eV is possible in the turbulent magnetized accretion disk. ...

Electromagnetic burst shape from collapsing magnetized object", Pis'ma v AZh, submitted, 1996 . ... The shape of magneto-dipole losses is investigated taking into account the relativistic effect of magnetic field dissipation in the result of the collapse. In terms of the simple model the solution of the burst like type has been obtained both for a direct collapse and for a case of formation of a fast-roating, self-gravitating object colled spinar. ...

. Unix considers any device attached to the system to be a file. And that includes your terminal! . By default, a command treats your terminal as the standard input file from which to read in information. Your terminal is also treated as the standard output file to which information is sent from the command. This action can be changed by redirecting standard input and standard output from and to any other file. Redirecting standard input . Redirecting standard output .
