Orbit . ... The orbit of the RadioAstron provides four types of study: . rough images of radio sources with ultra-high angular resolution, using all baselines up to the radius of the apogee, that is much larger than Earth diameter; . ... high quality imaging of radio sources, with moderate resolution, by observing either with small projected base lines Earth-spacecraft, i.e. close to the orbital plane, or near the perigee. ... high accuracy orbit determination. ... Space Radio Telescope . ...

... For SIMS (Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry) analysis, a solid surface is bombarded by primary ions of some keV energy. ... The subsequent mass analysis of the emitted ions provides detailed information on the elemental and molecular composition of the surface. ... Extremely short ion pulses with a duration below . ... By rastering a fine-focussed ion beam over the surface, like an electron beam in an electron microprobe, mass resolved secondary ion images (chemical maps) can be obtained...

Terahertz Imaging System based on Superconducting Integrated Receiver. ... Employing an SIR in an imaging system means building an entirely new instrument with many advantages compare to traditional systems : i) high temperature resolution , comparable to the best results for incoherent receivers; ii) high spectral resolution allowing spectral analysis of various substances; iii) the local oscillator The paper presents a prototype THz imaging system using an 1 pixel SIR. ...

... The value of tile-size, NW , may be thought of as a sixth coordinate axis in the chirplet transform parameter space - TF-area. Including this sixth coordinate axis provides us with a hierarchical (multi-resolution) CCT. ... Various 2- D slices through the multiresolution CCT may correspond to useful tilings of the TF plane with true parallelograms (true to the extent that the DPSS define a truly rectangular region in the TF plane). ...

Instruments and Methods 133 Sky temperature resolution by microwave radiometry A.G. Kislyakov State University, Nizhny Novgorod, Russia Introduction The threshold sensitivity of a radiometer is determined by well known equation Karlov & Manenkov, 1966 " hE i = h hn i +1 hn i + N t G0 , 1 G0 1=2 : 1 Here we denote hE ias the minimum detectable increment of radiation spectral density E at a frequency . ... Equation 3 gives a correction to the expression for limit detector sensitivity Kislyakov, 1997. ...

... Panoramic spectroscopy of the sample of 80 nearby lenticular galaxies is presented. ... By comparing the subsample of the S0s with the chemically distinct nuclei to the total sample of nearby S0s (Fig. 1), we have assured that the chemically distinct nuclei are always younger than the surrounding bulges: the mean age difference between the chemically distinct nuclei and their surrounding bulges is 2.8 Gyr while the age difference between the nuclei and the bulges for the whole sample is only 1 Gyr. ...

... 2005 October 5 . Annular Solar Eclipse at High Resolution . ... The event was not a total eclipse of the Sun for any Earth-bound sky enthusiast but rather, at best, an annular eclipse , where the Moon blocked most of the Sun. ... Those who witnessed the solar eclipse from a narrow path through Portugal , Spain and Africa , however, were lucky enough to see the coveted Ring of Fire , a dark Moon completely surrounded by the brilliant light of the distant Sun. ...

The Refractive Index Distributions (RID) in GRIN lens preforms are made by multi-stage optimized ion-exchange diffusion between silicate mineral glasses and salt melts. ... In the LAG lenses - L ow A perture GRIN the nature of the changing of refractive index in glass via ion-exchange lies mainly in molecular volume increase. ... LAG lenses are specially treated to create the dark anti-flick surface coating (Fig.2). ...
