... Our Sun is part of a huge wheel-shaped collection of stars. ... Astronomers have long suspected it was a very massive black hole, and that every galaxy had such a central mass, created early in the history of the universe. ... However, unless that object happens to be headed directly at the black hole (a relatively small target) it will just swing around and fly away again, like a comet making a pass at the Sun. The velocity acquired in falling towards the black hole also helps it escape. ...

... region (region-7.9) [xmmsas_20070708_1801-7.1.0] . ... Sources which lie close to each other may generate event-extraction regions which overlap. ... If the user selects shrinkconfused =`yes', and provided that the source region shape is circular not elliptical (true if radiusstyle is not equal to `contour', or if radiusstyle =`contour' but nosrcellipse =`yes'), the task will reduce the radii of pairs of overlapping source regions until they no longer overlap. ...

MODERN APPROACHES TO CALCULATION OF THE PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS FOR ENERGY STORAGE A. Kabanov Samara State University The modern technologies demands to compact and effective rechargeable systems of energy storage. ... In this work we investigated the activation energies of one promising compound ­ Li2CoPO4F using combination of two methods ­ ab-initio and geometrical calculations. ... The nudged elastic band (NEB) method is adopted to find the kinetic energy barrier along diffusion pathways. ...

The efficiency of interaction of radiation with a particle and hence its optical properties depend on the particle chemical composition, size, shape, structure, etc. ... Particle size expressed in units of the wavelength of incident radiation, together with chemical composition, most strongly affects the optical properties of a scatterer. ... There are many methods to solve the light-scattering problem for a homogeneous spheroid (our survey of the light-scattering methods see here ). ...

This is an image of the Galaxy NGC3877 and the supernova 1998S in the constellation Ursa Major. ... As others have posted, the supernova is actually easier to see than the parent galaxy. I was able to see it when I was done imaging last night (3/28/98) with the Fastar 8 SCT at 221X . ... Back to Supernovae in NGC and IC galaxies . Back to Supernova 1998S images .

The project of the informational system creation on the problem of evolution of radio galaxies, as a part of the "Big Trio" project aimed on studing of distant radio galaxies, is designed. This system allows a user to operate with simulated curves of spectral energy distributions (SED) to estimate ages and redshifts by photometry data. Authors use SEDs of several models for different types of galaxies. ... The HTTP and e-mail access is organized to this system. ...

Box 797 Sonoita, AZ 85637-0797 June 19, 2000 Prof. David Chalmers Philosophy Department Room 213, Social Sciences Building University of Arizona Tucson, AZ 85721-0027 Dear Prof. Chalmers: Well, here's another one from Mr. At-Least-I-Thought-Of-It-Independently. ... So as a thought experiment, let's imagine that instead of having our matter transporter actually move matter, what it moves is information. ... That will make it necessary to move the matter to move consciousness. ...

Authors: V.A. Marsakov , T.V. Borkova , . ... It is shown that general populations of globular clusters and metal-poor field stars are components at least of three subsystems occupying different volumes in the Galaxy. The thick disk and proto-disk subsystems are genetically associated with the Galaxy. ... It is argued that heavy-element enrichment and the collapse of the proto-galactic medium occurred mainly in the period between the formation of the proto-disk halo and thick disk subsystems. ...

REPORT ON PIERRE DELIGNE FELLOWSHIP, 2010 SERGEY OBLEZIN During 2010 I have been working on developing a representation theory approach to mirror symmetry and quantum cohomology of homogeneous spaces, associated to Lie groups of classical type. According to Givental the glN -Whittaker functions, being solutions to the quantum cohomology D-module QH (FlN ) of the complete flag variety FlN = GLN (C)/B , describe the corresponding equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of FlN . ...

Solar Large-Scale Chains: Some Events . ... The chains appear to light up separators or quasi-separatrix layers between different interacting large-scale magnetic flux systems in the global solar magnetosphere and, in particular, to outline large-scale coronal structures involved in the CME process. ... Some features of the chains and their relations to CMEs are illustrated for a number of halo CME-associated events. 23 events of 1997-2000 . ... Halo-CME-associated events of November 1997 . ...
