... With the lithium line 6708 ° as a rough estimate for the stellar age, we show that the A "lithium" age of RZ Psc lies b etween the age of stars in the Pleiades (70 Myr) and the Orion (10 Myr) clusters. ... Thus, both estimates of the age of RZ Psc, based on the lithium excess and the proper motion of the star give values that essentially exceed the characteristic time of dissipation of protoplanetary disks ( 10 Myr; Strom, Edwards & Skrutskie (1993)). ...

... Email: chaos@mail.cplire.ru Abstract - In this report, we investigate phenomena on the edge of spatially uniform chaotic mode and spatial temporal chaos in a lattice of chaotic 1-D maps with only local connections. ... PACEMAKER-CONTROLLED MODEL As we have already found, global synchronization is impossible in large lattices of locally coupled chaotic elements (maps). ... This synchronous mode is also chaotic (= 0.52В0.69) and stable, it attracts the lattice maps from any initial conditions. ...
