... Structure of Data . ... Catalog . ... In SAI OCL Catalog, we introduce our work on investigation of the Milky Way system of open star clusters. The main goal of our study is a search for new clusters using huge surveys. 168 new clusters have been already discovered by us using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS point source catalog. ... For 141 new clusters, we found their physical parameters using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS catalog and, for a number of clusters, our UBVRI CCD observational magnitudes. ...

... The most powerful and widely used methods to calculate the scattering matrix of a fractal cluster are based on the coupled dipoles methods (e.g. the Discrete Dipole Approximation, DDA) and the theory of light scattering by a cluster of spherical particles [2-4]. ... At present the procedure of calculation of the scattering matrix is well developed for both an oriented cluster of spherical particles and for chaotically oriented clusters of such particles [4]. ...

... To go back in time, archaeoastronomers and teachers can turn to personal computers and any of a number of software packages. ... Examples include the Long Man of Wilmington, England and the Owl Man of Peru (see figure 8 and figure 9 ). ... Deciphering the unique number system of the Maya is another archaeoastronomy topic that involves a minimum of math. ... Several collections of early writing of the Maya survive; numbers from them can be read and in some cases interpreted (see figure 12 ). ...

... Astrophysics Group . ... AMI Science . ... Observations of galaxy clusters are central to the AMI science programme. The AMI Small Array is used to observe already-known clusters with high-sensitivity and resolution, allowing us to extract detailed information about individual clusters and to build up statistics about the cluster population. ... Observing galaxy clusters at 15 GHz is tricky because of the contamination from foreground radio sources, which is where the Large Array comes in! ...

... V79 was known as an RRab type star or fundamental mode pulsator with the period of about 0.483 day during the century after its discovery by S.I.Bailey in 1895. ... The first overtone with the period of 0.359 day became the dominant mode. ... Periodogram analysis gives the only period of 0.4825 day, but not of 0.359 day. ... The period of this modulation is unusually small and equal to 1.389 day, that suggests the beat period or resonance motion between the fundamental mode and the first overtone. ...

... In 1930, Trumpler noticed that linear diameters (LD) of open clusters increase with distance (D) from the Sun. ... Since that time, the interstellar absorption has become one of the best studied factor in astrophysics, and we may hope that current OCL distance scales are free from this LD-D correlation. To verify if this is the case we have chosen several modern OCL distance scales and test them with the same clusters and the same angular diameters that Trumpler had used back in 1930. ...
