. Mars is "behind" the sun from the earth's point of view and is therefore not visible in the nighttime sky (i.e. its up in the daytime). Venus it at greatest elongation and appears in the western sky as a bright object for 2-3 hours after sunset .

... While there is practically no detector noise present at energies above , X-ray data below are considerably contaminated by noise events, which become more and more dominant towards the lowest transmitted energies (Fig. ... Investigations of 40 hours of in-orbit calibration data with the filter wheel closed, taken over a period of more than two years, showed that the noise properties vary with position and energy, but are fairly stable in time for most areas on the detector. ...

... Fractals and multifractals are used to model hierarchical, inhomogeneous structures in several areas of astrophysics, notably the distribution of matter at various scales in the universe. ... It is pointed out that some of the difficulties regarding the convergence rates of algorithms used to determine scaling exponents for a fractal or multifractal, are intrinsically related to its texture, in particular, to its lacunarity . ...

Authors: Yu.G. Shevelev , V.A. Marsakov , . ... We have constructed and investigated properties of metallicity function of disk stars with different ages, proceeding from the statistically restored real altitude distributions of stars at the solar galactocentric distance. It is shown that the metallicity distribution of stars in each age range is not of Gaussian form, but it may be considered as a superposition of two normal distributions centered at -0.2 and 0.0 dex. ...
