... Heracles Triplane and Aerospace Systems . The key characteristics of two-stage aerospace systems are determined according to speed and carrying capacity of the aircraft-carrier used . ... So the SPIRAL system hypersonic carrier was expected to launch the second stage by weight 63 tons at a speed corresponding to 6M; whereas launching weight of the MAKS system orbital stage with the use of the An-225 MRIYA heavy subsonic aircraft reaches 275 tons, and the HERACLES aircraft - 450 tons. ...

... The binary nature was remarked by Deutsch, approximate orbital elements were at first derived in Potsdam. Recently, 53 Cam was directly resolved by speckle-interferometric measurements of McAlister et al. and Balega. Combining with the spectroscopic elements the determination of the absolute values of the system parameters should be possible. In the present paper a revision of the spectroscopic orbital elements and a comparison of spectroscopic and speckle data have been carried out. ...

Static Fourier spectrometers are often used for spectral measurements of the ionosphere emissions. There are two main advantages of Fourier spectrometers (FS) - large geometric factor and high spectral resolution; these parameters are two orders better than for grating spectral instruments. ... In scanning Fourier spectrometer optical and electric modulation of signal is used to avoid this problem, for static Fourier spectrometer there are no such ways. ...

... Exploring the physics of Type Ia supernovae through spectral analysis . ... Their progenitor scenario as well as the details of the explosion mechanism remain a mystery. ... It produces a supernova spectrum for a given luminosity, photospheric velocity, time since explosion and several elemental abundances. Tweaking these parameters to produce a spectrum that fits an observed spectrum is a complex, as of yet, manual task. ... The search space is large and complex. ...

Physical parameters for subdwarf B stars with composite spectra R. Aznar Cuadrado, C.S. Jeffery, Armagh Observatory, College Hill, Armagh BT61 9DG New intermediate-resolution spectra have been obtained for a number of subdwarf B stars having both single and composite spectra. Physical parameters have been determined for the sdB stars and, in composite-spectrum systems, their cool companions. ... The surface gravity of the cool star is measured using the infrared calcium triplet. ...
