CFITSIO Interface Library CFITSIO is a library of ANSI C routines for reading and writing FITS format data files. ... The CFITSIO library is built on Unix systems by typing: > ./configure [--prefix=/target/installation/path] > make (or 'make shared') > make install (this step is optional) at the operating system prompt. The configure command customizes the Makefile for the particular system, then the `make' command compiles the source files and builds the library. ...

... Many massive planets contrary to Jupiter have large eccentricities of orbits. ... Another problem is to study the conditions and boundaries of stable, regular motions of small mass planet in systems having `Jupiter' with large orbital eccentricity as well as properties of regular, stable, and irregular, chaotic motions. ... The regular eccentricity evolution described above demonstrates that stable quasi--circular orbits of small planet are unusual. ...

... solar system . ... Solar system ice: source of Earth's water . Scientific findings contradict prevailing theories about the relationship between comets and water-bearing carbonaceous chondrites and suggest that meteorites, and their parent asteroids, are the most likely sources of Earth's water. ... Therefore, by comparing the deuterium content of water in carbonaceous chondrites to the deuterium content of comets, it is possible to tell if they formed in similar reaches of the solar system. ...

. Comment on J0414+0534 . A gravitational lens with an overall size of 2.2" (e.g. Katz, Moore & Hewitt 1997). Two of the four lensed components are in our field of view, separated by ~430 mas (Figure 4). See Porcas (1998) and Trotter, Winn & Hewitt (2000) for recent 5 GHz VLBI images of this system.
