In 1848 the Swiss astronomer Johann Rudolph Wolf introduced a daily measure- ment of sunspot number. His method, which is still used today, counts the total number of spots visible on the face of the sun and the number of groups into which they cluster, because neither quantity alone satisfactorily meas- ures sunspot activity. An observer computes a daily sunspot number by multiplying the number of groups he sees by ten and then adding this product to his total count of in- dividual spots. ...

The Stone Age Observatory. It is well known that a lot of ancient constructions are oriented according to the cardinal points but not long ago scientists turned upon archeological monuments. ... The ancient monuments studied by archeoastronomy had been used for observing the sun and the moon. ... They are called megalits (from Greek "megas" - "great"; "litos" - "stone"). ... The Great Stonehang. ... Orby called it a Heel Stone because he had seen a small hole in it looked like a heel trace. ...

... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

... Eclipses in the double--binary pulsar PSR J0737-3039 A/B . In the binary radio pulsar system J0737-3039 the faster pulsar A is eclipsed once per orbit while the slower pulsar B shows orbital-dependent variations of intensity. ... We construct a model of eclipses which reproduces the observed light curve up to intricate details and proves the long standing assumption of dipolar magnetic fields of neutron stars. ...
