The revision of the MASS/DIMM star catalogue N. Shatsky, V. Kornilov March 16, 2008 Abstract The compilation of the (updated) version of the MASS (MASS/DIMM) device target catalogue is described. ... Then the list was cleaned according to following criteria: I. Remove stars too faint for a MASS device. ... Here the color equation of the Sternb erg device was taken: M AS S mag = V mag + 0.45 (B - V ); stars with M AS S mag > 3.2 were removed. ... This was made based on the GCVS4.2 catalogue data. ...

... Application to foliations and contact structures in dimension 3 The concept of open bo ok decomposition go es back to H. Winkelnkemper (1973) and, according to old works by J.W. Alexander in the twenties, every closed orientable 3-manifold admits such a decomposition. ... But, these foliations and contact structures are co-orientable, since the normal bundle to a an open bo ok (which makes sense despite the binding set) must be trivial. ...

Picture an Astronomer A Project ASTRO Activity For Grades 4-12 The media and our past experiences have shaped and created our expectations of people in various careers. ... However, astronomy is carried out by men and women in every country and by people young and old. ... Activity Description Before an astronomy unit or the first visit by an astronomer to your classroom, it can be instructive to have the students picture what an astronomer looks like and then discuss their assumptions. ...

... I normally begin by asking the class what they think would be different if the Moon didn't exist, or if the Sun were closer to Earth, or if a star exploded nearby. ... The winds would be much stronger. ... In using what-if questions in the classroom, it is worth bearing in mind that students extrapolating the effects of new scenarios will encounter two different situations: direct changes to the new version of Earth and indirect changes resulting from the direct changes. ...

RadioAstronomy department of SAI was found in 1953 by prof I.S. Shklovsky. The basic direction of our works is development of new methods and devices for astronomical observations in different spectral regions, making observations and its interpretations. Department includes: laboratory RATAN-600, Infrared Group and several another scientific workgroups, that leads any big different projects. ... Go back to RadioAstronomy Dept ] . Andrew A.

Prague, August 16, 2006 . ... The GCVS has no IAU financial support since 1994, so we are not discussing money. ... However, it must be finished, with a new modern version prepared for all 'old' GCVS stars, including those from Name-Lists, with current knowledge incorporated and improved classification system applied. ... Also, people like GCVS star names, use them, and want their discoveries to be named. We can ask other people, with better resources than in Russia, to continue. ...
