Appendix A: Derivation of the Secondary Sag as a Function of Telescope Altitude . One-half of the secondary support structure consists of the two rods shown in Figure 9 plus the opposing rods on the other side of the secondary cage. The total tension force on a single rod can be decomposed into a thermal component and a base tension that is set at the time when the rods are originally tensioned with the turnbuckles. ... The axial force balance equation is then given by . ...

Dust around Herbig Ae/Be Stars: Porous, Cometary-like Grains? ... This brings up the question, which we try to answer here, of how the grain porosity affects the observational manifestations of the dust shells of HAeBe stars: the excess infrared emission, anomalous extinction in the ultraviolet, and the peculiar behaviour of colour indices and linear polarization during deep brightness minima observed for about 25% of HAeBe stars (UX Ori, WW Vul, etc). ...

Guest Editorial , May 2006 . Transforming SETI to METI . ... Those who propose, or oppose, sending Messages to Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence (METI) must contemplate the Hamlet-like question: "To send or not to send?" The science known as SETI deals with searching for messages from aliens. ... We therefore propose that, for solution to the various current METI problems, we consider transforming the familiar SETI search space to a METI search space. ... Where to search? ... When to search? ...
