... ON THE ROLE OF LARGE-SCALE PLASMA IRREGULARITIES AT THE FINAL STAGE OF ANOMALOUS ABSOPTION DEVELOPING UNDER HF HEATING OF THE IONOSPHERE . ... Fig. ... With the aid of numerical statistical modeling based on multiple ray tracing it is shown that in presence of large-scale irregularities the reflected signal amplitude mean value is increased significantly. ... Dependence of the mean amplitude of the reflected from the ionosphere signal on the large-scale (10-50 km) electron density irregularity level...

The most up-to-date information related to atmos 3.0 are collected here due to constantly increasing interest to MASS/DIMM processing software... atmos 3.0 is still beta , so the latest version is 2.97.5 (there is also 2.98.x branch which absorbs new features) . ...

In the regular experiments carried out with the RAS radio telescopes at Pushchino during 1999-2002, the study of the radial dependence of scattering of compact natural radio sources was extended to remote regions of the solar plasma environment. ... The stream in the transalfvenic region displays the same typical radial structure as observed in the transonic region, i.e., the existence of a "precursor" - a narrow band of reduced scattering preceding a wide region of enhanced scattering. ...

IR-radiometer for global coverage and direct data transmission modes . ... The scientific instrument package onboard the Meteor-3 spacecraft provides for regular instant acquisition of images of cloudiness and Earth surface in visible and infra-red bands, data on air temperature and humidity, sea surface temperature and clouds temperature. ...

... Under certain conditions, like those in the nucleus of a QSO, all atoms can be made to emit light at particular wavelengths. ... If that source is approaching the observer, the wave is squashed up onto itself making the wavelength shorter. ... This is redshift. ... You can see how the section of the QSO spectrum which we observe changes with redshift. ... We then see how far we had to slide the observed spectrum along the scale to make it match and that is the objects redshift. ... The 2QZ team . ...
