The direct detection of gravitational waves is one of those events long-expected by physicists that are nevertheless a significant occurrence which excites the world scientific community as if something unexpected has happened. ... Many rumors leaked ahead of the conference, and the fact that something (that is, a signal corresponding to gravitational waves) was discovered by LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) was discussed on the sidelines. ... arXiv:1602.03868 . ...

... All the galaxies are divided into 4 groups depending on the environment type; every subsample contains more than 10 galaxies. ... An effect of environments is seen both for the nuclei and for the bulges: if we consider the clusters (Virgo and Ursa Ma jor) and group centers as dense environments and the field and group periphery as sparse environments, then in the dense environments the stellar populations of S0s are in average older by 4­5 Gyr than in the sparse ones. ...
