... Actual stars are expected to be more complicated than these simulations. ... The spot may be entirely visible most of the time (one would observe a prolonged flux minimum low), and then part of it may disappear over the horizon briefly and then return (slow rise and then fall back to constant level). ... With the set of observations taken here, I have information available from several comparison stars and color information. ... The period found must be consistent with the data from any given night....

SUMMARY OF THE RESEARCH PROPOSAL by Maxim Vsemirnov Research topic: Hurwitz and (2,3)-generated matrix groups and related problems. ... The reason to study these groups arises from the fact that the class of (2, 3)-generated groups together with three cyclic groups {1}, C2 and C3 is exactly the class of quotients of the classical modular group PSL2 (Z). ... The answer is known for sporadic groups, some exceptional groups of Lie type and for the most series of classical matrix groups of large rank. ...

Within the framework of a joint observational program (SAO RAS + Instituto de Astrofisica de Andalucia (IAA), Granada, Spain) on August 25 and 27, 2006, a variable optical object (optical transient) OT GRB 050824 was photometrically observed in SAO. ... An optical identification was made in SAO with a CCD photometer of the 1-meter telescope by data of a satellite observatory SWIFT and with the use of optical data of the inernational monitoring of GRBs. ...

... In the context of the autonomous TAROT observatory we have developed an automatic scheduling software. ... With the advent of automatic telescopes and the use in service mode of large facilities, the problem of efficient night scheduling is becoming more important. ... However, we encountered some difficulties handling periodic or constrained requests with a large time interval, and it is unable to give to the telescope users and operators the visibility over the schedule. ...

... Perhaps the most interesting satellites in this group are the ones sent into distant orbits, some of them extending well past the Moon--e.g. the WIND spacecraft pictured here. Among them is a long series of IMP s (Interplanetary Monitoring Platforms) which sampled the Earth's distant magnetic environment, the magnetosphere, and the surrounding interplanetary region; IMP-8 is still returning good data, more than 20 years after its launch. ...
