... The Galactic low-mass X-ray binary GS 2023+338 was discovered during the burst on May 22, 1989 with the Japanise satellite Ginga (aka Galaxy). The flux reached 17 crabs (this unit of flux measurement is an bright X-ray source, Crab Nebula) at 10-35 keV. ... No other radio telescope worldwide carried out multi-frequency measurements. ... Upon 14 days the radio flux fell below the detection level at the RATAN-600 in relation to the decrease of the X-ray flux. ...

Comment on J0513-2159 . Our image shows an extension to about 5 mas SE from the brightest feature. The EVN 8 GHz image by Dallacasa et al. (1998), with about five times larger resolution, shows an extension from the brightest feature roughly opposite to our direction. As noted by Dallacasa et al. (1998), the structure detected has a highly inverted spectrum, which, together with the reported variability in the source, could explain the structural disagreement. ...

Prague, August 16, 2006 . Our trial revision of the GCVS data for several southern constellations show that type changes are not needed for most stars. ... We suggest to add one more symbol combining types, in the cases when two or more classification options remain for the same star, for example, EC|Ell, EC|RR (here EC means a contact eclipsing binary, this is one of our suggestions from next slides). ... Moreover, it will simplify moving stars from the suspected-variable catalogue to the GCVS. ...

Next: ZGSC (Compressed GSC) and XSKYMAP . ... This is a preliminary report on an investigation of the quality and properties of plates digitized during creation of the Guide Star Catalog (GSC). The results will be vital for reclassifying GSC objects. ... Many objects are measured on more than one plate, and thus have multiple catalog entries. ... Among the shortcomings of the GSC are: biased magnitudes and incorrect classifications for certain objects, presence of artifact objects. ...

... The first column shows the kinematical diagrams, where is the angle between the line of sight on the object and the vector of rotation about Z -axis, and V S is objects line-of-sight velocity relative to an observer at rest at the position of the Sun. The straight lines are regression fits, whose slopes yield the subsystem’s rotation rate. The second column shows the relations between metallicity and distance from the Galactic plane. ... privious figure | next figure . ...
