The X-ray Fundamental Plane of Clusters of Galaxies Yutaka Fujita National Astronomical Observatory, Japan We analyze the relations among central gas density, core radius, and temperature of X-ray clusters by plotting the observational data in the three-dimensional (log  gas;0 , log r c , and log T gas ) space and nd that the data lie on a 'fundamental plane'. ... The two parameters describing the plane are formation redshift and temperature of clusters. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

... Two types of epitaxial relations were observed for CeO2 buffer layer, depending on deposition technique and deviation angle of the substrate surface from the (110) NdGaO3 plane. ... Fluorite structure of CeO2 differs substantially from the substrate and film perovskite structure, that can lead to changes in epitaxy of both buffer layer on the substrate and YBCO film on the buffer layer (Kotelyanskii 1996, Mozhaev 1999). ... YBCO thin film deposition on the CeO2 buffer layer shows similar behavior. ...
