Galaxy Detection within the RATS project Michael Campbell Zone of Avoidance Our solar system lies about two thirds, or 25,000 light years, away from the galactic centre of the Milky Way. ... The Galaxy Threshold Value After much trial and error it was discovered that the vast majority of object with a star class less than 0.35 were galaxies and the vast majority of objects above 0.35 were stars. I called this the Galaxy Threshold Value. ... Not every object of star class beneath 0.35 is a galaxy. ...

Some Documentation for the IDL ICRED . ... This is the system which recieves all command inputs. it decodes inputs and selects tasks, parses parameter inputs and also runs the 'go', 'list' and 'help' commands. It does no error checking, for example to see if the parameter inputs are sensible (e.g. it does not check if an x-range has been entered as 'chicken', rather than a more understandable range of say 10,20). 2) the task decoders: icred_<taskname>.pro . ...

TEMPERATURE OF REGOLITH IN COLD TRAPS ON THE MOON A.A. Berezhnoi Sternberg Astronomical Institute Moscow, Russia The hypothesis of the existence of the lunar ice in cold traps was stated in (Watson et al., ...

Thesis grading criteria . ... Students should also take care to be specific about the work that they themselves did, as opposed to work done by collaborators and taken from the literature. ... The student has demonstrated some knowledge of the relevant background literature, but with serious gaps, and limited understanding. ... The student demonstrated that they had learned many of the relevant skills (which might include laboratory techniques, computer programming and statistical analysis). ...

Plasma is sometimes called "the fourth state of matter", beyond the familiar three--solid, liquid and gas. It is a gas in which atoms have been broken up into free-floating negative electrons and positive ions , atoms which have lost electrons and are left with a positive electric charge. ... The fluorescent lamp , widely used in the home and at work, contains plasma (main constituent, mercury vapor) which is heated and agitated by electricity, from the power line to which the lamp is connected. ...

... LWN.net FAQ . ... Read-copy-update (RCU) is a mutual exclusion technique which can operate without locking most of the time. It can yield significant performance benefits when the data to be protected is accessed via a pointer, is read frequently, changed rarely, and references to the structure are not held while a kernel thread sleeps. The core idea behind RCU is that, when the data requires updating, a pointer to a new structure containing the new data can be stored immediately. ...

... The first two catalogues (the one has been calculated using all input catalogues and the second one using only catalogues obtained with CALC/SOLVE software) provide a stochastic improvement of the ICRF 2. and the last two of them one allow us to account also for systematic errors in the current ICRF version. ...

Abstract -- Abundances of heavy elements decreases with increasing galactocentric distance almost in all disk galaxies. ... To explain this gradient in young objects and in the interstellar gas one has to assume that a typical disk galaxy is an open system, i.e. it expels some synthesized heavy elements into the circumgalactic space and/or accretes intergalactic gas with zero metallicity, with rates of both processes depending on the galactocentric distance. ...
