All the instrumental set-up, such as filters, polarizers, rotation angles, etc. are read from the image headers. Many input images ( 3 < N < 64) can be processed. ... Output images can be rebinned to increase the polarization signal-to-noise per output pixel. ... Output error images have fully propagated statistical errors from the input error images. ...

... A new IRAF task has been developed that automatically identifies linear (line-like) features in an image or set of images. ... In order to automatically detect linear features, the first step is to select pixels in the image (Fig. 1 , left panel) that fall within a given data value range. ... Another aspect of extended linear features is that the image space pixels that describe them are in some way adjacent to one another and have a minimum and maximum length. ...

SINGULAR POINTS IN THE SOLAR CHROMOSPHERE . ... In the structure of the solar chromosphere, containing information on the configuration of the magnetic field, we have found and identified all the main types of the singular points ( see Fig. 1 ), which are known as inherent features of the 2-D vector field. ... The main types of the singular points are the node, the focus, the center, and the saddle. ... Singular point of the focus type in the solar chromosphere. ...

... As a result of BTA observations of 23 chemically peculiar stars with strong magnetic fields, it was found that in 22 of them the longitudinal magnetic field, measured from the hydrogen line cores are considerably lower (by about 1/3) than the value measured from metal lines in the same spectra. ... New approaches need to be developed in order to interpret the data. ... The Zeeman spectrum of a star with a strong magnetic field, 53 Cam. ...

... Program: . ... There are twenty one math courses and two theoretical computer science courses. Besides math and computer science courses, a Russian language course, courses in Russian history, history of science and Russian literature (in English) are offered. ... However, we are aware that most students in the Math in Moscow program do not have as much math problem solving experience as Russian students of the same age. ... One "Math in Moscow" course transfers as three or four semester hours. ...

... Ever wonder how solar-mass stars form?. ... In order for material to accrete onto a protostar it has to lose angular momentum. The angular momentum of a large natal cloud leads to the formation of a circumstellar disk and inner accretion disk as the cloud collapses. ... Winds generated in the inner disk or close to the stellar surface (we don't know which) expel material along the disk rotation axis. ... This provides the highest resolution observational data on nearby young stars. ...
