... Feeding the Monster: Gas Caught in its Death Spiral into a Massive Black Hole . ... Stromlo Professor Mike Dopita have used the Hubble Space Telescope to discover how a massive Black Hole in a nearby galaxy feeds itself. ... Earlier Hubble Telescope data obtained by another team member, Professor Holland Ford of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland, had found a disk of gas rushing around the Black Hole at a speed of 500 kilometers a second. ...

... We apply Multichannel Singular Spectrum Analysis (MSSA, or extended EOF) technique to filter GRACE data and separate the principal components (PCs) of different periods. We performed data averaging over the large river basins of Russia. ... In every point ij on the map we have time series Aij(tk) of length N. The trajectory matrix for every XAij should be build and incorporated into large block matrix X as follows: X Aij Aij (t0 ) Aij (t1 ) .. ... Sum of PCs 1-10 for particular rivers basins. ...

... For us to see them from such great distances, quasars must be producing enormous energy -- they are about 1000 times brighter than an average galaxy! ... One of their choices for the energy source of quasars was a black hole. ... On the one hand, it may seem difficult to think that mere friction between bits of matter could account for the energy of a quasar, but, on the other hand, gravity is unimaginably strong near a black hole. ... How does matter actually rush towards the black hole? ...

... Research objects and scientific purposes .

Head [2] and Spudis [1] suggested in their reviews that the existense of the structure identified later as the South Pole - Aitken baasin was first predicted on the basis of a relief analysis of the mountain ridges observed in the libration zone be Hartman and Kuiper [7], i.e. after the first images of the lunar far-side had been obtained. ...

. 1. Move the cursor to the start of the text block you want to define. 2. Type M-space (the META character followed by a space). This sets a 'mark' at the start of the 'region'. 3. Move the cursor to the end of the text block you want to define as the 'region'. This sets the 'point' at the end of the 'region'. You do not have to type anything to set this 'point', the 'point' is the location of the cursor.

Star formation is often best manifested by bright H II regions.These are regions of hydrogen which have been ionized by ultraviolet photons which are emitted from massive stars (typically stars more than 20 times the mass of the Sun). ... A narrowband filter image centered on this wavelength will then readily reveal these H II regions and hence the current sites of star formation in a galaxy, The luminous blobs that can be seen here are all H II regions . ...

How the rings were formed. ... Because of the velocity of mutual collisions increases at the approaching to the planet, there is a region near an every planet where the particles reaching the definite sizes begin to pull due to the mutual collisions. ... Any big particle passes the whole cycle from the destruction to the restoration. ... Why the rings are so flat? ... The gravitation compresses the system from all sides and the rotation axis, but it cannot prevent compression along the axis. ...

This diagram illustrates two block boxes, one above the other, with rectangular clipping regions of different dimensions. ... Both axes depict increments of 5px. The clipping region of the first P box lies entirely within it, offset 5px from the top and left edges of the P box, and 10px from the right and bottom edges. ... The clipping region of the second P box resembles that of the first in style and position, except that the right edge is 5px to the right of the P box's right edge. ...
