... 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 . ...

... 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. ...

Computer-readable version of General Catalogue of Variable Stars, Vol.V. Extragalactic Variable Stars. ... Sample lines of the data files I. INTRODUCTION ------------------ The present fifth (and the last) volume of the 4th Edition of the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) is our first attempt to collect in a unified form the data for all variable and suspected variable stars - either members of extragalactic systems or observed in the direction of such systems due to projection. ...
