RTT150 . ... The primary mirror 1 reflects light to the secondary mirror 2 which sends the converging beam of light to the system of four flat mirrors 3, 4, 5 and 6. That allows the beam of light to leave the telescope strictly along its polar axis and be collected in Coude focus. ... That's why at any tube position (for any rotation along the declination axis) beam of light parallel to the principal axis after reflection on mirror 3 follows the direction of declination axis. ...

... Advises . Contact Advises . As an advise for amateurs we would like to underline: if it's possible, try to observe 3 asteroid positions per night and do not neglect to observe the Numbered Minor Planets in your telescope field of view as a "by product" of your observational programs. ... We think such estimations ought to be produced every morning after CCD observations of the moving celestial objects by observer himself. ...

... The possibility to use the electrostatic approximation to calculate the polarizability allows one to consider practically any shape scatterers - from the regular ones (ellipsoid, cylinder, disc) [ 7 , 274 ] to those with an arbitrary shape, structure and anisotropy [ 308 , 309 , 313 , 405 ] (in the last case the polarizability tensor should be found numerically) - using the theory of the Rayleigh scattering. ...

... The derived position here agrees with the position from recent ATCA observations, RA=15h 01m 34.74s, Dec=39 18 39.2" (Tasker, private communication) which found the source unresolved. Because of the relatively large position offset, the reality of the fainter component 0.12" to the west is somewhat in doubt. However, the ATCA centroid position is offset by 0.3" to the south-east of the VLBA position, suggesting that the faint component may be part of more extended structure. ...
