Furthermore, the Shirokovsky samples do not contain typical accessory phases of stony-iron meteorites, and the accessory phases are completely atypical for all meteorites. ...
Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the linear polarization of starlight due to extinction by aligned dust grains when the starlight traverses a medium with irregular magnetic fields. This medium is intended to represent the optically thick components of interstellar clouds which are observed to make little, if any, contribution to the polarization of starlight. ...
... The caption to Color Figure 3 refers to the source 1928+734, which should be 1928+738. In the summary section on page 49 (Murphy et al.), the sentence "In that time, we have observed a variety of structural changes in the inner jet region near the region." should read "In that time, we have observed a variety of structural changes in the inner jet region near the core." In the references on page 175 (Fomalont et al.) and page 182 (Moellenbrock et al.) ...
... 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. ...
... In less then one day "Mir" station will finish its flight. ... Besides, the operability of motion control systems will be tested to ensure further dynamic operation at the final stage of "Mir" complex. ... The final third burn is given in daily orbit 2 using the "ProgressM1-5" 8 control engines and its main engine with the trust of 300 rg/s. Thus, to peform deorbit maneuver the OC"MIr" real-time tested manuevers involving control engines and their combination with the main engine are used. ...
