Some notes on the "FAKERAT" software. ... In 1989/1990 D.W.Murphy (JPL) added the VSOP spacecraft constraints since they have a major impact of the science return from this missions. The program with the spacecraft constraints and several additional features was subsequently renamed fakesat. ... We continued these developments by creating a new branch of the software connected with RadioAstron mission; we call this version as "FAKERAT". ... Therefore, fakesat orbit block was completely replaced. ...

... Microlocal Analysis is a theory of Pseudo-Differential Operators and Fourier Integral Operators (PDOs and FIOs). ... Microlocal analysis comes in few flavors. ... We will consider semi-classical PDOs and FIOs: one can always get from there to standard PDOs and FIOs but semi-classical theory has more applications. Less formal description of (semi-classical) microlocal analysis is ``a semi-classical limit of quantum mechanics'' or ``high-frequency limit of electrodynamics'' (etc). ...

This is bp, a Perl Bibliography Package, by Dana Jacobsen (dana@acm.org). ... The package will let you write programs that handle bibliography parsing in a generic fashion for multiple bibliography types. ... It also allows conversion between formats and character sets. It is extendable, meaning that you can write your own routines, so to recognize your format "foo" all you have to do is write your "foo" code that reads, writes, and converts to and from the package's canonical format. ...

... During all period of our investigations Dr. N.Sumzina from the Institute of Applied Astronomy of RAS had prepared the Numbered Minor Planet positions from MPC Database for our processing with kind permission of the Director of Minor Planet Center Prof. Braian Marsden. ... Our extensive processing of the MPC data allows us to conclude that CCD observations of the Numbered and Unnumbered Minor Planets have the errors, sometimes very crude. ...
