... From the observed direction of interplanetary magnetic field lines, we believe this field comes from the Sun, carried by magnetic field lines dragged out by the solar wind . ... That is why magnetic field-line loops tend to keep back the solar wind, unlike the outward-bound lines in the "coronal holes" between them. ... The magnetic field at all these points is already so weak that the solar wind overpowers it and shifts its field lines, while its own motion--radially outward--remains unchanged. ...

... From the peculiar shape of the light curve in the visible spectral region (a long phase interval of light constancy was observed by Hensberge et al. in 1981 ), HD 56022 had been expected to show unambiguously the nonequatorial symmetry of its surface brightness distribution. However, analysis of the light curve has yielded a possible equatorial position of a spot. ... A solution seems only possible, if the light constancy over the long phase interval in the visible is not observed in the UV. ...

DISCLAIMER: The larger the aperture, the more light a telescope will gather and the fainter the object you can see. Here is a range of magnitudes you might expect to see. Given excellent sky conditions and good optics, a well trained eye can sometimes add up to 0.8 magnitude to these values. Limiting Magnitude depends on much more than the instruments aperture. ... One formula is for aperture in inches the other is for aperture in millimeters. ... Aperture (inches) . ... 15.2 . ...

Next: The Model Up: No Title Previous: Radiopulsars as Sources of . In this section, we study the evolution of stellar populations on a time-scale of 10 Myr for a starburst љ occurring under conditions similar to those in the Galactic Center (see Lipunov et al. (1995d)[ 126 ]). We estimate the expected number of X-ray transient љ sources (NS + MS star), super accreting BH, and BH + supergiant binaries, all as functions of time elapsed after the burst. ...
