... 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 . ...

... Bad Astronomy . ... Every few months, one of a series of questions comes up on the USENET group sci.astro involving tides, or the rotation of the Moon, or the recession of the Moon from the Earth. ... Why the Moon's rotation period is the same as the length of time it takes to orbit the Earth (same as number 1, but phrased differently). ... But when this happens, the time it takes for the Earth to rotate once will be slowed to exactly the same time it takes for the Moon to go around the Earth once! ...

In all three galaxies, the luminosity-weighted age of the nuclei (4 Gyr) is considerably younger than that of the population in the outer regions of the galaxies. ... Kinematically decoupled structures associated with a young metal-rich stellar population can be formed precisely through a dissipative merger of gas-rich galaxies several Gyr ago. ...

... According to standard phase screen theory large values of the intensity indices correspond to focusing conditions. ... It has been found that focusing effects always occur in the multibeam reflection (glint interference) regime. ... Figure 1 . ... First of all, calculations show that multibeam regime arises under slightly larger values of (see the Table 1 ). ... Thus, in our case (reflection from the E layer, altitude about 100 km) focusing is quite possible already when multibeam regime arises. ...
