... We consider the astrophysical evolution of the Galaxy over large time scales, from early stages (an age of ~10 8 yrs) to the end of traditional stellar evolution (~10 11 yrs). ... In the model considered, the basic stages of Galactic evolution are as follows. ... Essentially all other basic parameters of the Galaxy vary little. ... The final "stellar epoch" in the life of the Galaxy is completed ~10 13 yrs after its formation, when the evolution of the least massive stars comes to an end. ...

... Recent studies indicate that stars are most likely forming within the binary and multiple systems. ... During several years we are conducting the observations of such multiple stellar systems at the BTA telescope in order to find their companions and study the properties therein. ... This star is interesting in that it may be a dynamically unstable multiple star, meaning that over time, such systems will split into individual stars. ... A bright component is a very tight spectroscopic binary star. ...

The First Law (1): Energy is Conserved in a closed system: . ... We usually consider work and heat flow as the two kinds of energy . The Second Law (2): The Law of Entropy: . ... The amount of disorder increases . ... You can not go from a disordered system to an ordered system without inputting more energy (this is the most important attribute of the second law) . ... In no way can we recover work of that this disordered system without putting energy into the system. ... More on Thermodynamics . ...

... The Military Aspects of the Soviet Cosmonautics : A Side View . This book is the first effort in an unclassified Soviet publications to provide a comprehensive overview of the Soviet military space program. Presented here are the classification of the military space systems by functions performed (Chapter 1), the analysis of the organizational evolution of the Soviet space program (Chapter 2) and the description of all observable satellite systems of military or double destination (Chapter 3). ...

... This survey will using the 3.5 and 0.9m telescopes of the WIYN Observatory to conduct an unbiased survey for dwarf galaxies. ... What percentage of low mass galaxies experience starburst (SB) episodes? ... There are two kinds of galaxies, those that SB and those that don't. Need a survey that identifies both kinds? ... Therefore, you need to survey a large area to have a sufficient volume to find enough dwarfs. ... Low mass galaxies are very rare, so we need to cover a lot of area. ...

... 8, ``Celestial Mechanics'', 2002 Dynamic evolution of resonance orbits of exoplanets in system 47 Uma B. R. Mushailov, A. A. Kaloshin Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow, Russia The orbits of the major and minor planets of the Solar system indicate that their dynamic evolution is essentially influenced by the effects of orbital reso­ nance interactions. ... One may expect that the orbital resonances can exist not only in the Solar system, but also in other star systems. ...
