... Printed in the U.S.A. ON THE CONSTANCY OF THE PHOTON INDEX OF X-RAY SPECTRA OF 4U 1728-34 THROUGH ALL SPECTRAL STATES Elena Seifina1 and Lev Titarchuk2 1 2 ,3 ,4 Sternberg Astronomical Institute, Moscow State University, Universitetsky Prospect ... We find that the X-ray broadband energy spectra of 4U 1728-34 during all spectral states can be modeled by a combination of a thermal (blackbody-like) component, a Comptonized component (which we herein denote as COMPTB), and a Gaussian component. ...

... Imaging GRIN Rod Lens (HAG's) | Relay Rod Lens (LAG's) | ... The Refractive Index Distributions (RID) in GRIN lens preforms are made by multi-stage optimized ion-exchange diffusion between silicate mineral glasses and salt melts. ... In the LAG lenses - L ow A perture GRIN the nature of the changing of refractive index in glass via ion-exchange lies mainly in molecular volume increase. ... LAG lenses are specially treated to create the dark anti-flick surface coating (Fig.2). ...

There are 4 long and 2 short radiators (pointed with yellow arrow on this photo ) on each module. ... So, if you see short radiators between long ones - you see module side. ... Top of each module is marked by 2 small antennas (pointed with green arrow on the photo ) in the middle of its length near ends of long...
