... Spacecraft that will search for planetary systems around 40 million stars and observe the largest explosions in the universe have been chosen as the next two missions in NASA's medium-class Explorer (MIDEX) program. ... The first mission, to be launched in 2003, is the Swift Gamma Ray Burst Explorer, a three-telescope space observatory for studying gamma ray bursts. ... During its three-year mission, Swift will also survey the sky for new black holes and other sources of cosmic gamma rays. ...

Shell scripts can act like standard UNIX commands and take arguments from the command line. Arguments are passed from the command line into a shell program using the positional parameters $1 through to $9 . Each parameter corresponds to the position of the argument on the command line. ... For example: cat printps # This script converts ASCII files to PostScript # and sends them to the PostScript printer ps1 # It uses a local utility "a2ps" a2ps $* | lpr -Pps1 printps elm.txt vi.ref msg . ...

Geometry of X-ray sources in accreting black-hole binaries Andrzej A. Zdziarski N. Copernicus Astronomical Center, Warsaw The structure of the X-ray sources in the hard spectral state of accreting black-hole binaries has been a subject of intense debate. The paradigm dominant for many years postulated that the accretion disc in the hard state is truncated at some radius >> the innermost stable orbit (ISCO) whereas the disc reaches the ISCO in the soft state. ...

... GCR and SCR are primary cosmic rays. 10-15 years after the discovery of cosmic radiation (1919) there emerged two main avenues of investigation in the physics of cosmic rays (CR): 1) nuclear - elucidation of the origin of elementary particles and nuclear interactions; and 2) astrophysical (space physics) - solution of the problem related to the origin and variations (changes in intensity) of CR. ... Besides, the CR flux in interplanetary space is, strictly speaking, not isotropic. ...
